    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.”

    Kay, honestly, ignoring the fact that he's a rambling idiot with this, I don't think this kind of (crazy) talk is bad. Yes, of course the idea of militarizing in space seems insane, but remember, this guy isn't going to be in office anywhere near long enough for that to get off the ground. Given that, the fact that he appears to be in support of space travel technology/funding is probably a good thing in the long term. The alternative, and where I often fear Republican presidents will go, is for them to slash or totally cut off funding for technology development in that area. I'm personally one who supports all work that goes towards space exploration/technology in general, not to mention asteroid intervention projects, which actually are one priority for NASA - that work has to continue in a consistent way as humankind evolves IMO .... So dropping the stupid space wars fantasy that Trump is babbling about, if he's going to help to fund NASA or even military scientific research in that area, that could be a good thing for after he's gone, at least compared to slowing or stopping that kind of advancement. And it is actually possible that he's going in the dumb "space wars" route when he talks because that is probably the only track he can take with it so his moronic base will support paying for space technology development.
    it won't matter. trump is just blathering about whatever comes into his puny mind again. nothing will come of it. 
    I disagree. What will come of it is no major cuts in funding for space technology research and development. That's kind of my point. Most Republican Presidents would likely be slashing that funding. With this kind of blather, he's not nearly as likely to make such cuts. He could even end up increasing funding for NASA and military research at some point, just because of this mindless blather. That is a good thing.

    So Team Trump Treason forces the resignation of his chief White House economic council policy advisor because he was against the steel and aluminum tariffs but hires Kudlow, a CNBC economic show host and former advisor to Team Trump Treason’s campaign, who is also against tariffs? Makes sense in a brilliant brilliancy kind of way. Kind of like a space force makes sense.

    Yea, there’s no PTape. Just a disgruntled Hillary supporter creating an insurance policy.

    House Intelligence Democrats want to question the Ritz-Carlton in Moscow about the most salacious and controversial allegation in the Trump-Russia dossier - Business Insider https://apple.news/At8dN3c1mQmm5FcpVXymQrw

    Visited a Vegas strip club where performers performed golden showers. If Team Trump Treason never met Stormy, why not release her from the non-existent non-disclosure agreement? PTape, that’s why.

    but he often says one thing and the next bloody week he does the exact opposite. I'm saying his rhetoric means literally zero.

    Well, maybe. But it seems to me that it's not an anti-space White House in general, especially not when China, Russia, and India are so into it, so that's good... Good in Trump terms I mean. I can't think of any reason why they'd suddenly go anti-space now, given what they've said about it (and not just during that ridiculous speech). But okay, if you're looking at it as "I believe nothing and nothing means anything ever", then yeah, I see your point.

    impulsive behavior should not be encouraged whether it be in starting a relationship with an actress (of any genre) when you have a wife and baby at home, or in firing your Secretary of State.

    it ALWAYS makes you look stupid.

    “OK, OK,” Mr. Trump said, cutting short the discussion. “Tell them I’ll do it.”

    The South Korean officials looked at each other as if in disbelief, according to a White House official with knowledge of the meeting, as Mr. Trump continued. He would become the first sitting U.S. president to meet a North Korean leader, if Mr. Kim was sincere and understood the terms. “Tell him yes,” the president said.

    The Pennsylvania race proves it: Trump is a weight around the GOP’s neck

    In short, the vast majority of Republican officeholders will continue walking the tightrope. Too afraid of offending the GOP base, which is still solidly behind Trump, yet too afraid of generating a backlash among Democrats and independents, they are the proverbial deer caught in the headlights. They dare not dash to one side or another (solidly pro- or anti-Trump), but they are defenseless against the charge that they are enablers of a deeply unpopular president.

    The Pennsylvania race proves conservative democrats can win. Lamb did not run against Trump. He was a great candidate who vocally rejected Pelosi and supported most if not all of the GOP's positions. There is nothing wrong with that and in fact it is smart. The other thing the race proves is that Lamb's district is not filled with a bunch of misogynist, low-information racists who voted for Trump by 20 points but then all of a sudden came to their senses. The voters of this district were offered a young dynamic candidate who spoke to them with respect and for the most part agreed with them on centre-right issues.
    Trying to paint Lamb as an almost Republican is only showing your exposure to right wing media is too much. He’s pro-choice, pro-union, pro-stricter background check for guns, and opposes the repeal of ACA.

    Pompeo is a fantastic upgrade. I'm agnostic about Haspel but I'm sure the rank and file approve bigly. Lamb shows that a good candidate with a conservative-bent can win in a very Red district. Like Jones and Northam before him the dems need to recognize that this is the path to victory. If they can get their progressive wing to back off then flipping the house should be easy.
    Wasn’t it about a year ago that you were claiming that the brilliancy of Team Trump Treason and his campaign and policies would result in a Team Trumpian Treasonous wave that would solidify repube holds on congress and state legislatures, resulting in Team Trump Treason’s re-election and repubes’ consolidation of power for a generation? Still believing the myth, eh Professor?
    No. I never claimed that at all but I understand how your emotion prevents you from comprehending reasoned nuanced arguments which led you to think that. I said that Trump figured out how to speak to the working class voter in a way that previous Republican candidates failed. I also said that if Democrats failed to learn from this then they will have a hard time of winning in the future. Doug Jones demonstrates learning. Lamb demonstrates learning. The progressive wing boxing-in red state democrats like Tester into a corner shows a lack of learning. The odds are that the Republicans will lose the house next year regardless of Trump's performance because as I have said before it is generally cyclical...the President loses the house in his first term almost all the time and there is currently no evidence that Trump's support crosses over to GOP establishment candidates that he ran against. The senate on the other hand will likely stay red and in fact will have a larger GOP majority when all is said and done as the progressive wing is making it extremely hard for red state senators to hold their seats...the Jones election is likely an off-year anomaly where everything had to go right including a terrible opponent in order to squeak over the finish line. There is no myth of Trump other then a disruptive outsider who will govern chaotically and will be judged by results. He didn't run as a saint but as a "doer" and in the end he will take that record to the people for judgement. He will have to thread the same very thin needle to win and will have to remain an outsider to do so. Who his opponent is will matter greatly and the democrats should strongly consider candidates in the "Lamb" mold. There is a reason why Democratic operatives are on tv asking Hillary Clinton to stop talking...her AMT rhetoric is bad for the party.

    Nice revisionist history. It’s what you neoCONS do best. You did claim Team Trump Treason as brilliant so at least admit that.

    Hillary who?
    Yes on claiming that Trump was brilliant in the campaign that he ran. It was pure brilliance as he saw what nobody else saw, ran in a way that nobody else ever ran, and won in a way that very few people have done before. Complete and utter brilliance. He continues to be brilliant in the way that he is able to on the whole advance his agenda. Like I said 100 times...the man fails forward. None of this guarantees reelection though as I have also said 100 times that he will be judged on results. I do believe though that he is doing what is necessary to repeat in 2020 even if that means GOP losses in 2018. In terms of your Neocon analysis though you are way off...the neocon establishment actually disagrees with me...they are generally NeverTrump...they thought he could not win and they still believe he is dangerous. You really need to pay attention to the different wings and who believes in what...again your understanding is all over the place.

    a) trump is brilliant and ran a brilliant campaign

    but also

    b) hillary was a terrible candidate who ran a horrible campaign

    it can't be both.

    You forgot the assist from Russia. You know, those brilliant headlines you claimed would disappear a week after the election. Team Trump Treason and brilliant don’t belong in the same sentence.

    Team Trump Treason will have the US at war in late 2019/early 2020, to you know, increase his re-election chances.
    The US is already at war and the likelihood of additional war will not increase due to US actions but due to US and allied inaction. China, Russia, North Korea, Iran, Turkey to name a few have nefarious intentions and will continue to push boundaries if they are left unopposed. The best way to slow and/or prevent this is to prepare for the worst. Nobody can run from the tide that is coming toward us.
    Let me know how many Canadian troops are proffered for the coalition of the brilliant. And when they return from space. Oh, the first three countries you listed are nuclear powers, so no, and one of which is in possession of a PTape so double no. Of the other two you listed, one is a NATO ally and the other would require a massive land invasion, unless you’re advocating a nuclear strike? So, again, no. But keep beating that war drum Professor, keep beating that drum.
    You need to make-up your mind as to whether Trump is a stooge of these dictators or whether he is being too tough on them. Honestly you seem to take a different tack every day. Also...the fact that you still believe there is a PTape is truly amazing.
    Stormy has a tape. And pictures. Both of which will lend credence to the Steele Dossier. Hence Team Trump Treason’s fear of her. So, you’re advocating war with three nuclear powers, a NATO ally and a country that would make Iraq look like a cake walk? I guess you can when your country doesn’t have any skin in the game. And how has my position changed?
    No I am not advocating war with three nuclear powers. Why is it so hard for you to understand that the best way to avoid war is to appear that you are ready for war? Also your position constantly changes on your approach to Russia. You either want a tougher line against Putin or you don't? Which is it? It appears on most days that your are advocating for war against Putin. I know your real answer though. The truth as I have stated before is that you don't really care about Russia or their actions. You care about Trump and Trump only. Russia and PTape is something you just type to use as a cudgel. You don't care about Russia at all. It is also hilarious that you think a Stormy tape lends credence to the Steele Dossier. What a moronic statement.

    It occurred to me this morning that if everyone was as unqualified for their job as Trump is for his, we would slip into chaos and a new dark-age in a nanosecond.
    But what if the opposite happens... That things turnout to be fine which ends up proving that the lifelong professional political class who claim to know better then us deplorables just ain't that special.

    There is a whole industry that is far more petrified of this.
    What industry is that?
    The Party Politics Industry.

    Stormy Daniels’ lawsuit seeking relief from the nonexistent non-disclosure agreement is scheduled for July 12th. Hopefully, the PTape will be available in October.
    Do you really think Stormy has or knows of a Ptape? She may have peed on Donny Pumpkin Head, but that's about it. Probably wants the directing credits for the upcoming adult film she is floating, "Juiced Pumpkin".
    It's a hopeless situation...

    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.”

    Kay, honestly, ignoring the fact that he's a rambling idiot with this, I don't think this kind of (crazy) talk is bad. Yes, of course the idea of militarizing in space seems insane, but remember, this guy isn't going to be in office anywhere near long enough for that to get off the ground. Given that, the fact that he appears to be in support of space travel technology/funding is probably a good thing in the long term. The alternative, and where I often fear Republican presidents will go, is for them to slash or totally cut off funding for technology development in that area. I'm personally one who supports all work that goes towards space exploration/technology in general, not to mention asteroid intervention projects, which actually are one priority for NASA - that work has to continue in a consistent way as humankind evolves IMO .... So dropping the stupid space wars fantasy that Trump is babbling about, if he's going to help to fund NASA or even military scientific research in that area, that could be a good thing for after he's gone, at least compared to slowing or stopping that kind of advancement. And it is actually possible that he's going in the dumb "space wars" route when he talks because that is probably the only track he can take with it so his moronic base will support paying for space technology development.
    it won't matter. trump is just blathering about whatever comes into his puny mind again. nothing will come of it. 
    People said the same thing about Reagan's Star Wars...who's laughing about that now? Space will be militarized...it is just a question of who gets there first. Most of you wouldn't last a second when one of your precious communication satellites goes down...not to mention the SiriusXM satellite. Apparently some of us fans care more about PJ Radio then others.

    um, an anti-missle defense system is a TAD different than talking about a Space Force out of absolutely nowhere. it probably will happen eventualy, but it ain't gonna be spearheaded by president idiot, that I can tell you.
