We just don’t have the money to prepare for an EMP strike.
The money is all tied up in handing out free stuff to lllegal aliens, 4th generation moochers, and muslims who come here to overthrow the country.
A few billion dollars could be spent if it is a priority. If not for an EMP attack just to shield the grid from a Carrington type solar event. It doesn’t have to be spent all at once but over a two-four year period it makes sense to secure the grid.
