The Spin
Pro-Trump narrative
Trump's decision to create an Iron Dome for America is about ensuring it stays ahead of its adversaries and can further peace from a position of strength. The other moves will ensure that the US military continues to defend the homeland by continuing to be the most efficient and lethal fighting force.
Left narrative
Trump is continuing with his raft of damaging and wrong-headed executive orders. He has baselessly claimed that transgender people are both medically and morally unfit to serve. Such a move will deplete the military of 15K perfectly capable service members.
