Trump's 'Golden Dome' costs $1.2T

The Congressional Budget Office has estimated that President Trump's proposed 'Golden Dome' missile defense system could cost $1.2 trillion over 20 years.

The figure is significantly higher than the administration's initial $175 billion projection.

The massive cost estimate includes research, development, and the deployment of a nationwide shield.

Critics argue that the project is fiscally irresponsible, while supporters maintain it is essential for national security.
