Dominance of this country is being fought over by a couple of petty 12 year old tyrants. It’s like a version of that Twilight Zone where the powerful kid is surrounded by people trying not to upset him, except the kids are drug-addled and senile.
Do it, bring back NASA into full force and increase their budget.
I suspect Trump will more likely move more of the R&D under the auspices of the USSF (ie the Space Force). He can't claim to have "created" NASA, but the space force is his baby.
The same spacex that hasn’t had a launch since trump took office?
The SpaceX that got 3 billion dollars to get us to Mars and didn't get beyond blowing up a banana over the Indian ocean, that one yes
Why do I feel like the entire government is based off a 2yo building a house of cards with his bully from school.

You mean... By Musk? Yikes... Does anyone have to answer that? Are you new to this reality?
Didn’t they just cut a shitload from nasa like 2 days ago?
Yep, but when did Elon started turning on Trump? Not sure about the timeline of these events
