    Donald Trump is facing calls to immediately seize control
    of SpaceX after Elon Musk threatened to abandon NASA astronauts
    in orbit amid a bitter fallout with the president.

    In an explosive back-and-fourth on Thursday afternoon, Trump
    hit back to Musk's escalating claims by suggesting the
    entrepreneur's multibillion-dollar government contracts
    be taken away.

    'The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and
    Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon's Governmental
    Subsidies and Contracts,' Trump said on Truth Social.

    Musk promptly fired back, with the SpaceX chief saying he
    would begin 'decommissioning' his company's Dragon spacecraft
    in response.

    The spacecraft is vital for ferrying NASA astronauts to and
    from the International Space Station.

    . . .

    STILL smell 'political theatre' here ... this shit
    is mostly an ACT, with a PURPOSE.

    Sorry, NO replacement for SpaceX now ... CAN'T use
    the Russians, CAN'T use China - and ESA doesn't
    do human flights (why not ?).

    The NASA big rocket - STILL not ready for prime time.
    Boeing ... only if you want everyone dead.

    It's good to see that Trump supporters want more government control.

    Why not nationalize all private enterprise so Trump has control over our
    lives?

    Deport that dirty African migrant and seize his wealth first.


    It will fund Trump's next election campaign.
