    Whine, whine, whine. It’s not like the US is the only people with a space program. Just go to fucking Russia already, you piece of shit.

    The reason you’re not ever living on Mars is that it has no magnetosphere. Good fucking luck surviving any length of time with constant ionising radiation slapping the shit out of your DNA. This fact alone should have shut down any discussion of feasibility about colonising Mars.

    Although it does make the three-titted chick from Total Recall way more realistic.

    Remember, he left Trump back in 2017. I wonder what deal he made with him this time that makes him so dedicated again. It’s kind of hard to impress someone who has everything, so it must be more power.

      Trump said he would create a government position just for him. He would also probably get some easier contracts and less oversight with SpaceX.

    Take note, the mars thing is propaganda and it has always been. “Space” is a business and a warzone

      Notice Musk has never even been up in a SpaceX rocket, even for PR purposes like Bezos does. He’s probably too cowardly to do that, let alone go to Mars.

      He should use the money he has now to build a rocket and send himself to Mars. That way he won’t have to worry about US government programs anymore.

    Really strong “the only way I’ll lose this election is if there’s massive fraud” vibes here.

        You know, I didn’t think I could hate Musk more - but then he just one ups himself. It’s almost impressive.

    God, people like him are the fucking worst because they have endless resources but their incompetence just keeps getting in their own way. Regulations are not your problem, it’s your inability to understand complex situations and lack of capacity to come up with solutions. So unless dumbass gets a perfect world, he can’t do shit. We already went to the fucking moon using slide rulers, fuck off with your loser whining.

    Mars with current technology is completely unfeasible. Musk uses it to get public support for more funding for space x. It’s unsurprising he knows Trump would give him more money so he’s backing trump

    Didn’t he himself get one high-speed rail initiative derailed so he could pimp his techbro version of a subway for his asshole customers?

    Ha, this is just him admitting that she’ll win. Just like trump calling Walz the future vice president. Losers are quiet quitting their fascism.
