    Trump's Call For A 'Space Force' Makes Him The Laughingstock Of The Galaxy

    Trump's Call For A 'Space Force' Makes Him The Laughingstock Of The Galaxy


    President Donald Trump thinks the United States should launch a “Space Force,” a branch of the military devoted to wars in space.

    “Space is a war-fighting domain, just like the land, air and sea,” Trump said on Tuesday at the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar. “We may even have a Space Force, develop another one, Space Force. We have the Air Force, we’ll have the Space Force.”

    At first, Trump said he wasn’t serious about the notion.

    “Then I said, ‘What a great idea!’ Maybe we’ll have to do that,’” Trump said. “So think of that: Space Force, because we are spending a lot and we have a lot of private money coming in, tremendous.”

    He also described the U.S. military as “vital to ensuring America continues to lead the way into the stars.”

    I guess Trump feels the need to compete with modern day PT Barnum, carnival huxter, Elon Musk.

    The whole concept sounds wacky as hell... I'm not sure that a new military branch can be created by presidential decree. I believe Congress has to authorize it and a bill for this, last year failed in the House. All I can say is our time and tax dollars can be spent in much more important ways...

    It's just a spectacle of nonsense. The USAF already has a "space command" that quietly coordinates the Armed Services and is taking the lead on any space based activity and some even claim we have "non-terrestrial officers" or secret military astronauts and this proclamation is decades too early. The USAF is taking the lead and has considered some sort of unified military service based loosely on the US Coast Guard in rank, structure and purpose...

    Yup. Mattis wasn't exactly amused. But see there is no air in space so we need Space Force not Air Force. Haha!

    We are not supposed to go to war without congress declaring it. That doesn't stop us from bombing the shit out of people. We used to call it a police action. Now it's called spreading democracy. The government is full of crooks. They all have a get out of jail free card. They really don't give a shit. Sure our time and tax dollars can be spent in better ways. How many trillion have we wasted in Iraq? Trump campaigned on rebuilding our infrastructure. I don't see that being done. I think that takes priority over Space Force.

    The president is commander in chief of the US military forces. He has a lot of power over military operations. He can't declare war. He does not control the purse. He probably can create a new military branch on his own but he can't finance it without house approval.

    Personally I think a Space Force is a wonderful concept. I've had about enough of these fucking Ewoks.

    Reminds me of the crap Reagan got when he announced the Star Wars program. People called him Ronald Ray Gun and made all sorts of fun at it. It turns out the whole thing was a psyops to get the Soviets to spend money they didn't have to try and match us on this new fake program. It worked. It helped financially break the Soviet Union and lead to it's demise.

    Space Force sounds dumb enough to be another psyops. Ha! Ha! if General Mattis is throwing a tizzy fit just to make it look more real then he's really getting into the part.

    Wow so you are saying that this is so fucking stupid it is clever.

    Ever hear of Occam's razor? Also this would be a psyops against who? Not the Russians so who else, maybe Americans?
