“How about we start preparing for this.”

This should absolutely be on the Trump agenda. Not only would the grid be able to survive an EMP attack, but it would be able to survive the large solar storm that will inevitably happen at some point.

That is an infrastructure project worth doing!

Hardening of the electrical grid is a priority in the infrastructure plan.
