Yea, what's he gonna do send ICE after them? Not only are they out of his league, they are out of this world.
I mean Trump did start that Space Force he hasn't done anything with yet....
Just to be clear, the idea of the Space Force was first publicly fielded during the Bush administration, and pushed closer to fruition by the Obama administration. Basically nothing in this country happens under one president.
He would cancel future Artemis missions out of spite
That would mean canceling all the pork to Senator’s states. He already tried to kill the NASA budget last year and Congress didn’t let him. Money rolling into their states seems to be one of the few things Congress will still fight for right now.
