Executive order says US will oppose any international effort to bar it from removing chunks of moon, Mars or elsewhere in space

The world may be racked by the coronavirus, but Donald Trump has less earthly concerns on his mind, too, after signing an executive order encouraging the US to mine the moon for minerals.

With soyuz hahaha

Lol just pictured a Trump sign up there after someone brands the moon with his name like a hotel. Wake me up!

I don’t want to live here anymore 😩

acfick72 April fool a few days late?

Is he bored of barking at it?

I'd like to see the economic rationalisation on this.

Maybe we should mine his arse for brain cells.

70% of US economic growth is consumer spending. He should focus on saving lives during this C-19 pandemic, and the economy thereafter, not the moon.

Looking for the man in it ...

Great... let’s destroy another another thing in the galaxy too. Sounds like a great idea that.

Means mining all his golf courses

What the fuck, I can’t believe the low way greed stoops in these people ,absolutely disgusting ,is he gunning for an end to humanity, without the moon we are no more, is the sun next Mr President?

The fight for land in outer space has started. There is nowehere safe from humans.

SaintNyshon

Not only does he think he rules the world but now the universe too. Somebody stop him!

When u run short of toiletpapers ur president talk stupid things.

FFS.

Leave the moon alone realDonaldTrump go get some C19 and die fast

IvanMosovitch Why does the US presume the Moon belongs to them..?

What an embarrassment

Ignorance, arrogance, corruption, and greed led to the downfall of other empires.

Good plan. New jobs and (I presume) no Covid19 there

Loon for the moon.

Trump is a visionary.

If you went back to 1848 and told Karl Marx that the eventual consequence of capitalism would be 'what could go wrong if we mine the thing that controls our oceans?', he would have laughed in your face. Well, here we are.

Mr Trump is in trap of Corona ,even the moon at night will look like CORONA to him.

What could go wrong?

boggles my mind that no one in the secret service has shoved him down a staircase

Competition or have they already because those spots on thecmoon agree, huge compared to 50 - 30 Years ago.

does he need cheese?

Trump is talking bollocks! But this bullshit does the job of distracting us from his disastrous coronavirus lies! COVID19 lockdown TrumpLiesAmericanDie TrumpVirus TrumpGenocide Resist VoteBlueNoMatterWho

Just when I think he can't underwhelm any more than he already has....

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ surely he has better things to be getting on with right now

Ok. Lets send him up there to personally scout it out.

He probably thinks the moon is made of cheese, thinks he can corner the pizza market.

What this means is that if you start a business that mines the Moon, or Mars or an asteroid or any other celestial body for e.g. minerals and bring those back to Earth, that you get to keep those and can sell them instead of having to 'donate' them to the UN or something.

Trump is a plague upon the Earth and the Moon.

He is getting more and more delutional by the minute.

Do US own the moon?

Companies have been working on this for years, you dont just 'encourage it' then it happens lol. the logistics behind it is intense. But the economic problems that mining from outer space would cause are immense, the price of minerals would take a NOSEDIVE becoming worthless.

That's what the space fleet was all about. I think the USA deserves an embargo.

Why

IvanMosovitch Nonsense, nobody can get there.

Tell him it would be more expensive to carry the loads than pay gold.

Cheesemining

It's all so much worse than I ever could have imagined.

Priorities.

Who's Trump?

Ummm, I’m not an expert but messing with the moon which is responsible for the tides, seasons and keeping Earth stable on its axis....doesn’t seem like a great idea.

Yeah! Let's mine the sun while we're at it! Dumb orange!

I mean, I guess if I had a choice between mining on the moon and continuing to mine on Earth, I would think it would be better for the environment here to mine on the moon. Better not to take a dump where you eat and all that.

He's been watching too many cartoons.

Let's go collect rocks instead of spending taxpayers money on taxpayers, you know like health care.

I think this guy has finally lost it he’s mentally unstable.

Well it does look like he's a space cadet

No international Law ? Where are Europe, China , Japan...

Americans are steeling masks who was bought from other countries like France, Germany Canada and Brasil. First return our masks.

Mars is 140m from earth? Where the fuck have I been.

I remember when Bush started to talk about Mars when the War in Iraq became a mess

I thought April 1st was a few days ago?

Trillions of Dollars spending year after year to collect Sand, Stone, and Images. On Earth, hunger, sick, disable, poverty and more, people are dying. What a wise investment!

Blue moon.

Forget about the moon, let's mine the HELL

Try Sun

How about we send Trump up there and he can do it.

There is no place he doesn’t want to despoil, whether that is the WH or the universe.

Somebody needs to make him watch The Time Machine.

Please, please, please pry this greedy leech out of office!!!

It seems like you guys can go to the moon again?Americans are unlikely to do so under Trump ’s leadership

Trump lost his marbles & he hopes that they might be found on the Moon or elsewhere in the space...

And a hotel?

Too small, let's go to the sun

The moon is a sovereign satellite of the earth. Of course America will “conquer” it. They only fight fights they think they can win...and ultimately lose.

Space cadet

this is the way tomake US great again!

What!? Sure, we have destroyed one planet, why not the moon as well!

'Look, there's a lot of cheese up there, that's what they say, and maybe that's the really great thing, we could bring it back here, and it will be just the most wonderful cheese, believe me, the best ever, in fact'

This guy is totally crazy.

logo colocará um IPTU lá tmbm!

What?

What? 😂😂

what's wrong with mining the moon?

Isn't he who said covid19 is a flu?

Say what?

Trump hopeful for ‘light at end of tunnel’ despite expected surge in coronavirus cases – follow liveDonald Trump has said he hopes the US is “starting to see light at the end of the tunnel” after New York, at the epicentre of the country’s coronavirus outbreak, reported a dip in cases.  However, Oregon sent hundreds of ventilators to NYC. China sent 1,000 Ventilators to NYC. Trump is withholding supplies (ventilators and PPE) from NY, NJ, CT . He is failing Americans and making them turn to other countries for help. What a shame. That's cos Trump is an idiot COVID19 must end ASAP so Trump can drive tanks & missiles through national mall on July 4th while half of GOP Congress in Russia as usual. With so much attention on COVID19 media includes Trump but not always abt Trump. Trump the mediawhore is going through withdrawal.
