Trump entertains the idea of a 'Space Force'

What the f**k...

Today, during a speech to Marines at the Marimar Marine Corps Air Station in San Diego, Donald seriously entertained the idea of a Space Force. He explains:

"My new national strategy for space recognizes that space is a war-fighting domain, just like the land air and sea. We may even have a Space Force"

"We're doing a tremendous amount of work in space, and I said, maybe we need a new force. We'll call it the Space Force."

So.....where do we even start with this one? The fact that it cost hundreds of millions of dollars just to put shit into space? The fact that multiple countries have put aside their differences in a joint effort to build and support the ISS(International Space Station)? The fact that WWII was the last major global war that would ever happen and that the new war is on the cyber front? I have to give the POTUS credit though, as the idea shows he is forward thinking but the thought itself is based on some twisted uninformed paradigm of how the world works today. It was one thing to hear about Trump's insnae ramblings every now and then when he was just a hedonistic entrepeneur but its something totally different to have every news source in America broadcasting his delusional thought process EVERY...DAY


Honestly, war is dead..as it should be. Conflict? thats alive and well but War, as a means of vanquishing evil, hasn't existed in decades. War, today, is completely political and propaganda based and the world's armies are one of the single greatest sources of global debt despite the fact that countries will only ever need them for the small arms conflicts that inevitably happen. What about an invasion on the American mainland, you say?....Just stop it. Between Nuclear deterrents and even bigger, economic incentive, no ones attacking anyone...its just not gonna happen. We need a Space Force like we needed a reality tv star President...but hey, you never know....if aliens show up and wreck us with their advanced
technology, atleast we'd have a punch to throw before the KO.

😅 Space Force 🤣

USSF(United States Space Force) sounds a tad better. He should've started there.

Space and Gravity. Man made concepts of the science religion.

Science aims to explain what religions don't....in the quantum world, it seems science has reached its limit since we've realized that just our observation changes the outcome of experiments....Which might explain why religion doesn't try to explain what science wanted to.
