    • Yes, Trump is totally the first president to suggest going into space. Yep. Totally the first.

      • JFK "We choose to go to the Moon! We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too." Reagan "I call upon the scientific community who gave us nuclear weapons to turn their great talents to the cause of mankind and world peace: to give us the means of rendering these nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete." (The SDI or "Star Wars" Defense Initiative) Trump “I'm hereby directing the Department of Defense and Pentagon to immediately begin the process necessary to establish a space force as the sixth branch of the armed forces. That's a big statement. We are going to have the Air Force and we are going to have the Space Force – separate but equal. It is going to be something," Basically the "Space Force", which was like the worst name for it, ever, is just a modified or modern version of Reagan's SDI plan. The thing is, Trump's may actually have the timing and technology to get it done. In Reagan's era the SDI plan was just a little too grandiose to be able to be completed in that time period. The technology just wasn't ready. It's not like he's making any plans to have a manned military pretense in space. It will be just a more complex drone operation, for lack of a better way to describe it.

        >first one to suggest space force Gee whiz, I guess Kennedy and the "New Frontier" stuff was actually a dream and not reality. Edit: Also when you accidentally trigger the OP. I didn't think he was this easily triggered seeing as he likes being the tough guy on the internet so much. OP needs a blanket and some hot cocoa with sprinkles in it. Does someone have something to ease the anger of this sweet summer child?

          • I'm just wondering what happened to Republicans being the party of fiscal conservatism. Republicans are supposed to be for small government and decreased spending right?

            • When you realize that space force is primarily just sitting behind a computer watching satellites. That’s basically what it is being made for... to minister and protect our satellites.

              • An incredibly stupid waste of money. Just give the money that would be allocated to a Space Force to NASA so we can go to Mars and increase zero-G research output. That would benefit us more than a Space Force.

              • A few problems 1) Trump has exactly zero authority to do anything of the sort. 2) There are multiple treaties banning the weaponization of space 3) USAF theoretically already covers space 4) This is the same numbskull who wants to defend NASA because they don't agree with his delusions

                • Space Force - the most expensive political distraction in U.S history.
