And, honestly, it simply shows their own stupidity more than it accomplishes anything else.
Late this past week, the President tweeted shade at NASA. He wants them to emphasize the future, manned Mars mission more than the nearer future, manned Moon missions (2024). Certainly, this is narcissistic in nature. President Trump wants all the credit for a 2030 or 2032 manned Mars mission to point back to his program funding priorities in 2018. I get it, despite not agreeing with it, because doing either is difficult af.
That said, watching the clueless Trump-haters fall all over themselves rushing to Twitter to call the President out on his comment that "[the Moon] is a part of Mars" is utterly embarrassing. It also shows how blindly stupid they all are. Those who follow NASA, even to a small degree, knew the President was clearly talking about the integration of the two missions, not the two celestial objects, when he said the Moon was part of Mars. And he's 100% correct. Everything being planned for the Moon missions has Mars in mind. The new Moon space gateway is the window to the rest of the solar system. This is all part of the Trump Administration's reinvigoration of NASA and manned, interplanetary exploration.
Why must the Trump-haters try so hard? Trump gives them plenty of real opportunities to hate on him because he talks like a normal guy rather than in the scripted, phony monotone of his predecessors. When they unnecessarily go or if their way to find material, they only end up embarrassing themselves, not him. For a bunch of supposed elites, they're pretty fukcing dumb (this includes disingenuous scientists ignoring what they know just to smear the President).
His tweet was unwise. The response to it has been infinitely stupidity than anything he wrote.
