I...I kind of wonder if he means something like the iron dome that Israel has. I'm trying to translate his senile brain into something that is tangible.
But then again.. we're talking about a man who said a nuke could get rid of a hurricane.
That's exactly what he's talking about. The full context is him talking about MIT graduates shooting down an incoming missile - kindergarten sound effects and all.
The way people here are misinterpreting it as him wanting a physical dome just makes us look like fools in addition to him.
What he's actually saying is dumb enough. Turning a scarecrow into a straw man isn't helpful.
So people are fools for not interpreting the incoherent ramblings of the mango shitgibbon? If a US presidential candidate is incapable of basic communication, and is ahead in the polls, lord help the world.
If you follow the senile logic, a nuke very well may end a hurricane. That much overpressure and heat added to the environment is going to affect it - and the living things on the only habitable biome…
No, they're too weak. Trump wasn't the only person with that idea, so NHS has had a discussion of the math up for years: https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd-faq/#Stop
The tl;Dr is that hurricanes have much more power tied up into them than currently used nukes release, by a tremendous amount. Quoting:
The heat release is equivalent to a 10-megaton nuclear bomb exploding every 20 minutes. According to the 1993 World Almanac, the entire human race used energy at a rate of 1013 watts in 1990, a rate less than 20% of the power of a hurricane
