(18,770 posts)It's funny, but reading his tweet, Trump was making a reasonable, not wildly ignorant, point. Which he fails to do often
Trump's point was that a moon mission is just a step along the path of a grander Mars mission strategy, and we should talk about Mars, because it's more inspiring.
So this is pretty petty, IMO.

How dare anyone apply PETTY to trump. Show some respect to the PRES..........., no, can't say it, appointed Baffoon.

(3,433 posts)Spending time on typos or confusing tweets like this, seems like a wasted opportunity to focus people on the coordinated GOP effort to bring an end to Democracy because too many millenials, women, gays and brown people have a voice.
Maybe it's just me.

(26,271 posts)I think the problem with Melania's 'be best' project is, it's too non specific. Thus, her spouse has chosen to be his best at being King of the Lying, Sniveling, Cowardly, Criminally Minded Jerks.

(2,312 posts)He doesn't know how organize phrases and clauses so that his meaning is clear.
I wonder if he'd take a journalistic writing class. Hmmmm.

It makes no sense to refer to the moon as some kind of rest stop.
The moon is about 240,000 miles from Earth and Mars is closer to 40 million miles away. Why waste time and money launching from the moon as if it makes the trip shorter?

Siwsan
(26,271 posts)His problem is that his fingers work far faster and better than his brain. Of course, he could be stricken with severe arthritis, and that would still hold true.

And he has nuclear weapons pointed at the world and the future of global democracy.
Happy birthday!

But then again, every time I see a photo of him where his hands are visible, my automatic reaction is eeeuuuuuww! The very reminder of what he thinks those hands of his are entitled to do - ICK!!!

(81,323 posts)They were contemporaries in the best-seller fiction world back in the 60s and 70s. He wrote Portnoys Complaint (whose protagonist reveled in his discovery of - shall we say self-pleasurement). It was a huge hit and became a movie.
Susann was also a successful author of the sex-and-drugs hit novel Valley of the Dolls that also spawned a hit movie. She was asked about her friendly competitor and said she would be happy to meet him, but added I just wouldnt want to shake hands with him!

Siwsan

(11,813 posts)...I've spent the past 30 minutes on his Instagram. Is "binge scrolling" a thing? I think I may have just created it.
