President Trump heads to Florida for historic SpaceX launch.

The launch is scheduled to take place at 4:33 p.m. Wednesday, but weather forecasts for Cape Canaveral, Florida, showed potential storms could interfere with the liftoff. The launch is"instantaneous," meaning that it needs to leave precisely at 4:33 p.m. or else the craft risks missing the International Space Station due to the Earth's rotation.

Charles Bolden, a former NASA administrator and astronaut, said in an interview with MSNBC Wednesday morning that he did not think the coronavirus pandemic would affect the ability to successfully launch the rocket, but that he worried it could be putting some workers involved with the event at risk of infection.

"I'm concerned about the safety of the people involved, but I am not concerned that it will impact the launch," Bolden, said.

Omg are we are to believe he’s not going to his golf course

😂😂😂😂😂and rain came in . Anything Trump does or goes is damaged.

Which was a none starter

I'm 18

Well it’s not taking off till Saturday can they take Trump?

Please stay where you are! We already have issues here in FL.

Put him in the rocket and shoot him into space and leave him there. VoteTrumpOut2020

This guy is a jinx! The launch had to be postponed...

He will likely squeeze in a few rounds of golf while he waits.

Bet he plays golf while he's there. And since the launch was postponed until Saturday, he'll either stay in Florida and play or fly back down for the weekend (and golf).

Please tell me they are putting him on the rocket!

realDonaldTrump -

I bet he won’t mention Obama now!

FL is a good place for trump so he is out of DC and away from the press. Trump is useless as this president and must be Removed2020

'Space force' The current space race term for rich people who are looking for another place to go once they've destroyed earth and left all the poor to die.

X-Lax

Awwwww! It was cancelled

He wasn't on it😂🤣

Gee, I wonder where he will stay? And I'm sure there will more waste of taxpayer dollars to play golf.

Don’t go! Trump dooms everything. Ugh.

If he can go to Florida for the launch then he can go vote in person in November.

He not only casts a cloud over the country but in space as well

another dud at another dud.

Probably why it was canceled.

Launch scrubbed Time for golf!!!!!

yawn

Trump told reporters after landing in Florida, “I know more about rocket science than anyone. The people at NASA were really surprised I know so much about this stuff.”

Trump needs to be on the rocket. Tell him Obama flew on the Roswell space ship

WHO CARES

I'd say, stick him in the capsule and launch immediately!

Then I gets canceled lmfao

Are they gonna strap him to the rocket!?

And why is that news?

Called off cause he’s a junx

Wish we could launch him into space.

They canceled... dumb ass

Send him with them

'Aw schucks. Guess I'll get in a couple of rounds of golf instead.' - Orange Turd

Fly away then.we don't need you disrupting America's accomplishments as a whole melting pot.

Stay away from them 😷

Trump showed up and the launch was cancelled.

Damned blight. If he wasn't there the launch would have taken place. A dark cloud always follows him.

It's so sickening to see these negative comments about our President. I feel bad for the moderate democrats whose party has betrayed, abused, abandoned and lied to them. No wonder so many people are choosing to WalkAway.

Yeah and jinxed it. Nice going Trump I watched for two hours and the launch was scrubbed.

Best President Ever! Helping to lift the spirits, dreams and aspirations of the American People. If only the media & dem leadership would support this good Man, instead of fighting him continually, our country would be so much better off. God bless our beloved Country!

Because he has nothing else to do!

Give him a ride - one way

Nice one, going to be a great launch🤞

Let me guess. Heading to Mar-a-Lago afterwards for a few days with the fam?

Hopefully sent up

Everyone Trump fired in the style of Billy Joel's timeless classic: 'We Didn't Start The Fire' 'We Didn't Start The Firing'

He going to fuck it up 😂

He can go to Florida to watch a rocket blast off. But can't go to vote?

I’m not a fan of Trump just like most of you but after reading all these comments about blaming him for this I’ve officially lost hope in humanity. Where is your guys god damn common sense? Trump is watching a historic launch. This has nothing to do with anything else.. Jesus

Use the SPACE FORCE

OrangeJuliusCeasarSalad.

Unless he’s on the shuttle and they’re planning on leaving him there IDGAF

Will he be able to see it from the golf course?

Thanks to President Trump and the vision of Elon Musk, US will never have to rely on another country to get us to space, and now we can protect our nation from Chinese satellites.

How many people hope Trump is launched.

Fore !!!

BEST AMERICAN PRESIDENT EVER!!! TRUMP 2020 🇺🇸 💪 👍 💰 💟💟

You mean he’s heading to Florida to golf and will catch the space launch on the way.

Take him with you. Leave him on the space station.

What? He can’t watch on tv like everyone else. WASTEFUL government spending.

No he’s not, he’s going to golf.

Wonder if he'll get on that rocket

Bad omen.

He is here. Wouldn’t a loving, caring father bring his younger son to experience a historic event? Trump is just as bad at parenting as he is with every other aspect of his life.

Love this President!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The only thing that sucks from this beautiful accomplishment. It’s this idiot... I hate this idiot so much...

Can we not send him up? vote

BUAHAHAHAHAHA

The launch should be suspended do to weather. However, I’m sure-they are deciding to launch to fulfill Trump ego. This is going to be a disaster waiting to happen. I pray to God, I’m wrong. I would suspend the launch for safety of the astronauts on board.

Is he going too?

He should crawl into a cave!

💥Pleeeease..take em’ with you!☄️

👍🙂🇺🇸

1 question, when & how, has he acted like a President? If he's been a President then, it's true... U R indeed, fake & disgusting, as he tags U! He acts like many things...most importantly, like a trump! Why not, SKIP the (Mr President) & We all address him as Mr trump or even Don

Somehow he'll spin this launch to try and make himself look good! Give him a front row seat on the Pad! DementiaDon CorruptTrump DumpTrump2020 TrumpOwnsEveryDeath

Great. He will take personal credit for making it happen.

Probably hits the links after, idk.

Heading to Mara Largo

Does he know there is a tornado warning in that area? Let's not tell him.

Launching space yet us is the leading country in death with 100k people dead he should just call for state of emergency ....the greatest economy in the world will come tumbling down ..

Why can’t we have something that he doesn’t try to ruin?

Maybe realDonaldTrump should blast off with them. TraitorTrump is full of hot air.

This is what he wants for America. MAGA!

HalSparks Hope he wears a mask or next thing you know we will be giving this virus to the Martians.

Send him to the moon...and leave him there.

Can we get him a seat to go with them🙏🏽

I wonder why he's wasting tax payers money for the trip? Oh!! Its cause Elon Musk!! Billionaires helping Billionaires out!! Why isn't Trump bashing Elon Musk for being Government funded for years under the Obama Admin

Awesome! Will he be attached to the super duper rocket?

Can he get a tour inside the rocket just before lift off?

Space Case heads to Space Coast for meet up with Starfleet & CBS Lawsuit TheOnion

Why is elonmusk/SpaceX allowing this desecration to take place?

Put him on the ship please.

Get on it, Jabba. And, never come back.

He’ll show his face, get bored, go and play some golf....

Maybe should of looked at the weather report before spending all those tax payer dollars. Learn

Can he hitch a ride on the SpaceX? Then while up there they toss him out!

Will be late again?

Can he be a passenger?

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏼👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍la NASA vous pouvez pas envoyer Trump sur une autre planète 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

what can go wrong with him there 🤷‍♂️

It's patriotic

Somebody please put him on that space ship 🚀 or beneath it when it takes off....

$TSLA

I'm waiting for him and his clouded mind to congratulate Space Force instead of NASA.

Send that motherfucker realDonaldTrump to the moon!

He wanted to go with the astronauts but they couldn’t find a spacesuit in obese.

Is Trump going to be launched as well. The numbers would be great.

Can someone duct tape him to the rocket?

Twitter Fact-Checked A Trump Tweet For The First TimeDonald Trump said mail-in ballots are fraudulent. Twitter said that wasn't the case. Trump has beaten himself by not leading doing the virus crises and Calling the virus a hoax for two months and selling snake oil and bleach as a cure. Plus not mentioning the 98,000 deaths and not wearing a mask as a leader. its a wash. Can't wait until his meltdown over this, his sycophants are already losing it as we speak.
