2 outcomes:
1: This is just kayfabe and will blow over in a week
2: All of Elon’s companies get nationalized and he gets deported

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

2: All of Elon’s companies get nationalized and he gets deported

Elon getting deported would be kino.

The UK has nukes. And they're gonna be a Islamic state or in anarchy sooner or later.

Our nukes barely fire. I wouldn't worry about it

I kinda feel bad for Elon because at one point he seemed legitimately worried that the 1A was under attack and would've not lasted long in the hands of Kamala. This was even when he was seen as the King Reddit and everyone there loved him. Hell, we were getting to the point where people were openly stating how the Constitution was a problem for the government.

I mean, if he wanted to redeem all the H1B's then he should've backed the DNC, but he didn't. I don't know why he didn't see it coming, his vision and Trump's vision were incompatible.

Nigger there are more than Space X and Blue Orgin in the field of rocketry. As for the big shit, I guess Nasa just gets their budget boosted then in light of this event. The SLS program is back on baby.

Everyone is a meme besides Space X and I'm not sucking it off because it's fact. NASA is only good for research and testing, Boeing is only good for manufacturing weapons, and Blue Origin... exist.

Trump refuses to go after the people imprisoned hundreds of Americans over an election he says was stolen yet he attack his former allies. Yes, deport the richest man in the world who advanced space flight by decades because Trump is a bitch.

Fuckin Elon ran most of it, now what? Bezos? Really? SLS is BOEING btw, and ULA? There's nothing of the US space industry besides SpaceX dude. The rest is shit.

I guess Boeing will have to fix their shit. Tough titties. The American Government isn't giving up spaceflight over some Howard Hughes knockoff having a meltdown. They might nationalize his company at this rate though...

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Then NASA will build a fucking lander. They get paid to do this shit. Holy fuck we don't live in cyberpunk quite yet where everything is run by megacorps. The government can still make shit when it wants to.

You have no idea how shit NASA is in current year do you? They don't have the Nazis or the Alabama Nerds anymore. They have been constantly over budget and behind schedule for 20 years now. They can't figure shit.

Dragon is literally the ONLY American spacecraft that can move people to and from the ISS. Musk might be essentially holding the 7 astronauts up there hostage by decommissioning the Dragon pods. We'll have to ask Russia for help using Soyuz or something retarded

Elon will be removed from SpaceX before these contracts are canceled. SpaceX is fine, Elon is having a personal political spat and does not run the company day-to-day.

 

[Jace on ice]

Pull Elon's federal contracts Blumpf you know you want to.

This is a bit like if Null chimped out and someone said KF would still go on, when it comes to space. There's no other options.

Spaceforce, Golden Dome, Artemis, it's all SpaceX. All of it. If Elon goes and he just went insane and said he's dropping Dragon, that's it. There's nothing for 10+ years.

Elon is one drug investigation from being forcibly divested of SpaceX. He needs to calm down.

prophetic

 

[LikeAStone 2.0]

Same vibe.

 

[Disaffected Coyote]

We still have the SLS and smaller disposable rocket systems. The US Government still retains space flight capacity you histrionic dumbass.

Idk man, last I looked they haven't even finished building the crawler for the next SLS launch.

I know that we could recover, but it would set us back years, unless Blue Origin and ULA are ready to pick up the slack.

Trump will fire everyone and start fresh then. The smart people will be found. The US Government won't give up spaceflight. That is retarded.

 

[DumbDude43]

Elon has now unfollowed Trump on twitter.

imagine telling someone from 10 years ago that in the not so distant future we would have drama about the president of the united states unfollowing the richest man in the world on twitter

 

[Imperial Citizen]

Why? Why can't congress work an an actual bill that will get Trump's agenda done without adding 5t to the debt ceiling? Unless of course Trump's agenda includes piling on more debt. I loathe the idea that the government can only work by making massive obtuse bills that no one reads and pushing them through as fast as possible. Literal retard tier governance.

Because there is no fucking way that the Republicans would raise revenue to offset deficit spending. Not for their political benefactors.

People drastically underestimate how little respect the Chinese have for American regulations, which they largely see as burdensome and nonsensical. And sometimes they're right, just not in the case of shipping biological materials over state lines.

Asian culture in general dislikes Western intellectual and copyright rules for these reasons; China's dislike is cranked up past 11 and we see it in not just the counterfeit knockoff goods, but their sneaky espionage where they try to get trade secrets or reverse engineer products so they can flood the market with cheap Chineseum lookalikes that are absolute shit-tier quality. It's also unsurprising that they may be sneaking germs into the US as a way to cause havoc from within.

Of course the CCP is always going to invoke plausible deniability. At the same time, though, they're like Emperor Palpatine form Star Wars in how hey manipulate things from behind the scenes in the shadows.

Golden Dome? Nigger, all of that is military contractors. Patriot batteries and shit like that. Holy fuck you are drunk.
