| Ok. Now what, OP? Do you want the job? |

| Good. Sick and tired of the one note DEI program that dictates who we’re allowed to nominate. |

Or maybe he has some flat-earther, moon-landings-were-faked nutjob in mind. It would fit the profile of late. |

| Rumor is he has an Air Force MAGA in mind who is focused on militarization of space. Issac man was actually a decent nominee, which meant he was doomed of course. |

| Buzz Aldrin would be a great pick. |

I liked his too. He had already disavowed Musk's Mars plan in favor of the moon. |

| I wish there could be one that would understand that studying exo planets with the build-and-ready-to-launch roman space telescope is more important than watching people hop around on other planets. The instrument, which cost billions, is decaying as it needs the vacuum of space. but who cares about exo planets? how could aliens possibly be interesting? when instead you give humans huge radiation doses going to planets to collect rocks that robots are perfectly capable of collecting |

| This seems anti-Semitic. Why is Trump pulling the nomination of a Jew? |

Sounds DEI-y … |

Actually, no it was because Trump doesn't believe someone with prominent ears should be representing his administration on TV. |
