How likely will Cry-Baby-trump leave American astronauts stranded at the International Space Station to 1-up Elon now that their love affair is over?

Sort of answers your question...

“A 47% reduction to NASA Science would represent a surrender of American leadership in a domain it has long defined,” the letters stated. “At a time when other nations, notably China, are increasing their space science capabilities and cadence, such a self-inflicted wound would cede our hard-won leadership.”

@DeWayfarer Elon Musk doesn't represent 47% of NASA science.

@MarkPaul yet as it says that type of reduction (47%) we would be handing it over to China.

They would see to anyone coming down.

I hope Musk is friendly with Xi!

I predict that Elon will basically say FU to Trump and if the need arises to rescue American astronauts he will emerge as the hero by rescuing the astronauts out of his own pocket.

He will then spin the blame on Trump and all members of Congress for never having had a successor plan into place for the Space Shuttle program.

@beckyromero I can see that happening. Unless Boeing or Jeff Bezos can step into the void.
