Thank you @POTUS for your leadership! I cannot wait for the day that we return to the Moon and look forward to that powerful moment when we plant Old Glory on the Martian Surface! 🇺🇸

President Trump reasserts Mars ambitions during #SOTU address, calling for use of NASA's Artemis program "as a launching pad to ensure that America is the first nation to plant its flag on Mars."

1. Buzz, I loved you

But it"s fitting you weren't first on the moon.

[dewsgirl]

3. LoL😂

[dewsgirl]

2. WTF fresh hell? We're we aware Buzz Aldrin was a Trump

Supporter?

[AJT]

10. Yes, he's been a trumpie from the start.

[dewsgirl]

12. How did I miss this? I have a vague memory from a couple

years ago, i never thought he was a full blown cult member.😔

4. Buzz, you have my permission

to launch your drunken tweets at the moon and beyond.

[MontanaMama]

5. And with that tweet, I would like to make a motion

that we put Buzz and the MF on Mars as soon as possible. Do I have a second?

[crickets]

6. Thanks for ruining the moon, Buzz.

I kid, but still... really? Buzz Aldrin, I thought you had to be smart to be an astronaut. Damn.

[coti]

7. Between him and Neil, Buzz was never really the "smart" one.

He's always had a habit of saying...inappropriate...things.

[tenderfoot]

8. the tweet has been deleted

what an asshole.

[Dennis Donovan]

16. The replies were brutal. I can see why he deep-sixed his tweet.

[tenderfoot]

18. He reposted it again

I'm not sharing the link but he's getting filleted again.

Fuck that asshole.

[Dennis Donovan]

19. Yep - I put it in the OP

Best we know where people are coming from, I suppose.

[coti]

9. It actually wasn't an awful tweet other than the "POTUS leadership" part. nt

[Rebl2]

11. You

disappoint me Buzz. I should have known you are a conservative. No longer a hero to me.

[TlalocW]

13. There's only one explanation. He's got the...

SPACE MADNESS!

[Docreed2003]

14. Lol...Buzz, you've always been a prick

This just confirms it.

Buzz has always been a self aggrandizing, ass...the movie "First Man", and the book, portray this very well. I grew up idolizing so many of the early astronauts as a kid in the 80's, went to Space Camp many times, and I can tell you this doesn't surprise me in the least. Thanks for your contributions Buzz but this is just pathetic.

15. Maybe since the Jerk is handing out medals of freedom like party favors

he's angling to get one for his trophy wall before he shuffles off to the great beyond.

[Dennis Donovan]

17. I think he already has one from 1969

Maybe he wants a shiny new one?

[dalton99a]

20. Get your ass to Mars, and stay there

Take Trump with you

[Mike 03]

21. Maybe he's jockeying for an honorary position in Space Force

by kissing a little presidential butt.

[denbot]

22. Wasn't it Buzz who punched the fake landing idiot.

Say it ain’t so..

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

23. And he'll be just as successful as Junior was when he promised the same, exact thing.... nt
