    This is the most ridiculous idea ...

    Generally space is a huge waste of money and resources ...
    I disagree with your second comment. Scientific advances in space exploration are super important IMO. But yeah, the idea of "establishing dominance" in military terms in space is beyond ridiculous. If there is any venue where the nations of the world can collaborate peacefully for the good of all in the spirit of genuine innovation and scientific advancement, it's in space, and Trump just wants to shit all over that. He's such a fucking piece of shit.

    That's fair.  Yes weaponizing space is dumb.  I'd be surprised if it came about.  But I was surprised Trump became president.  So anything is possible these days...

    Haha, yeah right, like Trump could even achieve dominance over Russia. Putin's got Trump bent over his desk at the Kremlin with a ball gag in his mouth, lol.

    Kinda, but nobody can be said to have any dominance there as a military force, and that's specifically what Trump is blathering about. Weaponization and militarization are two very different things.
    Trump the turd is probably going to manage to start a new space race at this rate. Moron. That is the exact opposite direction from the one the world should and could be going in.

    Our entire grid of communication is based in outer space, man.  Whoa, far out!  If the commies take out our sats, we will need to resurrect that dumb ass cable under the atlantic sea or have Kevin Costner deliver our mail on horseback or get those ravens from Game of Thrones but then we will have to worry if Littlefinger caught the original raven and is just fucking with us.

    How else to bitch to each other or get news on setlists (and bitch about those too) if not for outer space?  Plus I bet the dinos wish they had Velociraptor in space suits to intercept giant rocks floating around the dark void.

    The problem is, if one country started blasting away at another countries satellites, the result would be having enough debris floating around to start knocking other satellites to bits.  Pretty soon you have a debris field that renders that space unusable for thousands of years.  Maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing after all.  But I doubt that's going to happen.  I think the whole space wars is just more bullshit to keep people either scared or entertained.  Or both.
