This is such bullshit.

“There is a threat out there but it’s being handled by the U.S. Air Force today. (It) doesn’t make sense to build a whole other level of bureaucracy in an incredibly bureaucratic DoD,” (Former astronaut and retired U.S. Navy Captain Mark Kelly) told MSNBC in an interview. -Reuters

Just one more thing to distract his mindless and easily manipulated followers.

Way to go, Trump supporters. You somehow managed to ruin SPACE.

[Akimbo_NOT]

IKR! Now we’re going to have fight Space Nazis too.

It’s actually really, really hard to send something into the sun. From a scientific standpoint, it’s better to send them on an unending voyage into the endless abyss of outer space.

Trump introduces the cutest logos for America's sixth military branch

[Blaze_Curry]

There’s probably some corner of his deluded mind that thinks that making a another branch of the military that can’t be countered by the others will help him control them, a kind of rock-paper-scissors-shotgun situation.
