8. Where did he get the gazillions needed to pay

for his most excellent adventure in space? Pelosi isn't going to give him a dime. There's been no feasibility study, no impact survey, no expert testimony, no academic white papers, no written policies, no proposed goals or even a rational to-do list.

This is another one of Trump's thoughtless and ill conceived comic book whims. He just wants more people in cool outer space uniforms to line up and salute him on cue. He wants to put his name brand on a "spaceship", christen a fleet of shutter and the build a moon base as the forerunner to Trump's Lunar Tower.
