When you're so hateful of Trump that you have to take up half the article with "I hate Trump" reporting using completely unrelated material...
In other news, it looks like I'll never be in space. I'm not big on how the military has become a means for corrupt politicians.
Edit: lol, did he really just say "Separate but equal"???/
Standard Trump reporting. That's the way it's been since he won the election.
What about this? Sure, there may be some military weapons that could be allowed in space by the treaty, but that doesn't mean it is a good idea to push for that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_Space_Treaty
A Space branch wouldn't necessarily be about weaponry. More likely the command and control of all things space related. The USAF already has a Space Command that does this and my guess is that this is very much like when the USAF was created out of the US Army Air Corp. This would also tie in other agencies throughout the government under a single authority (again, a guess).
The USAF Space Command already does have ICBMs under it now, so there will be weapons in all likelihood. But I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be the primary focus.
Holy fucking shit. This guy. Just wow.
I swear it's like Trump read Starship Troopers as a kid and just decided "I could do that!". "But I'll have to unite the solar system under a federation and implement a system of military citizenship first..."
MFW he just won't stop trolling...
