Hint of a major and disrupt health policy shift, not backed by any science, with a Trump-knows-shit-about-shit answer of "we'll have to look into that" two days before an election. What a fucking guy this idiot is.

That's not a very good reason or justification to delay.

If that worries the justice system, then Trump can never be sentenced. He has cult followers for life.

Fuck this noise. His ass should be in a holding pen awaiting his sentencing. Then maybe he'd want to do it a little sooner. Unfortunately, we continue to keep handling him with the softest, fluffiest, Downy fresh kid gloves.

Just like how mammy and pappy raised me.

The U.S. Constitution uses but does not define the phrase "natural born Citizen" and various opinions have been offered over time regarding its exact meaning.

Don't be too sure. This particular SC might allow Elon to run because...reasons. And by reasons, I mean free chartered flights anywhere in the world, brand new RVs, and paying rent for justices' mamas.

They don't even need violence. Just an official act that decrees that only 3 specific justices have case voting power. The other six are just non-voting members. Effective immediately.

He's has a mastery of gish galloping. There's no way I could ever approach half of what he does.

But that's about the only thing I can think of that he's good at. And it's definitely something he's good at due to severe character flaws and mental development issues, not exactly a learned skill or intentional thing he applies. But good nonetheless.

Trump aides alarmed that Trump is ranting about crowd sizes.

Trump aides alarmed that Trump's skin is orange.

Trump aides alarmed that Trump only cares about himself.

Trump aides alarmed that Trump is living in the past.

Trump aides alarmed that Trump is a convicted felon.

Like, who are these aides? Where were they the last 20 years?

I was thinking outside; external module. Apollo could "store" external modules for launch in the fairing, then dock with them in space (ie, moon lander/moon ascent). That's enormously complex of course though.

Watch his recent NJ speech for a couple of minutes.

I would, but that's a couple minutes more than I can stand. Given that I don't want to stab my eardrums with an icepick, I'm going to trust you on this one.

Yes, but Gemini and Apollo were 50+ years ago. Airlocks are likely safer for everyone since ISS and shuttle spacewalks all used them. I think the ISS one also allows prebreathing in the hours before spacewalks to minimize chances of the bends.

And good point about hardening the electronics and equipment. That has to be a requirement regardless I guess since a depressurization could happen on any flight. But depressurizing then repressurizing them during flight increases the risk of something happening compared to not doing it.

So who on the crew will perform the spacewalk?

“We’d say all four of us are doing it — there’s no airlock and it’s being vented down to vacuum” inside the spacecraft, Isaacman said.

Interesting choice. Some sort of airlock module attached to the hatch seems like a better idea, but maybe that isn't possible. Hope those EVA suits work well since there's a 4x chance for failure with all 4 of them facing the harshness of space. Same goes for the internal capsule controls/modules/computers.
