He's also criticized the trade deal with Mexico and Canada that he signed during his first term.

It was already an established part of the Air Force, he just gave it its own division

Golden dome has also been downsized to cover Mar a Lago and the nearby McDonald's

[–] Sdes01@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 weeks ago

And it only protects from golden showers.

Wait wait wait

Didn't he CREATE the space force?

[–] WoolyNelson@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

He spun it off the Air Force.

It's ok, Elon will provide a subscription to space defense which he absolutely promises not to threaten to turn off if he feels like it - https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/09/14/musk-internet-access-crimea-ukraine/

normally one wouldn't care about this guy's own stupid space force but going by how each defunding has gone so far there's probably gonna be an alien invasion in a couple of weeks.

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Or a real war against enemies with ASAT capabilities.

Finally, a 100% certain way of contacting alien life!

Really? I just read an article about a huge new defence system they're going to build for their mainland, with Space Force at the head of it, costing over $540,000,000,000 over 20 years and taking up a significant ongoing chunk of their entire military budget.

How can this be true and they're also downsizing...

[–] radix@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago

No doubt they just outsource the administration of the program to SpaceX.

Why have a government when your donors can get rich, instead?

[–] Tja@programming.dev 15 points 3 weeks ago

Good job trump! Obviously a moron created this, so gut it!

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemm.ee 14 points 3 weeks ago

But of course. Everyone knows space is for the private sector, as a playground for billionaires and a place for them to exploit for mining.

Clearly a real human being.

MAINTAIN MOISTURE

[–] lowleekun@ani.social 12 points 3 weeks ago

I mean of course. Daddy Puntin would not have it any other way.

[–] Fontasia@feddit.nl 11 points 3 weeks ago

Can't wait for him to insult and defund the golden dome

[–] Sibbo@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 weeks ago

Elmo will be unhappy now?
