Trident is a waste of money, deterrents do nothing to stop a nuke that's on it's way. It should be common sense to invest money into Anti-missile technology instead because in a situation where we have been nuked, Trident does nothing but offer up a revenge attack which is meaningless to the people affected by the nuke in the first place.
Honestly, it should be quite simple to understand.

The risk of a revenge attack is a deterrent.
If there is no risk of retaliation, attackers have a lot less to lose.
