    Space Force

    Man, slow day around here huh?
    Can't believe this hasn't made the padded room yet.

    Trump: Space Force and Air Force will be 'separate but equal'
    Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump used a term from US segregationist history to describe the relationship between the Air Force and his newest military branch, the Space Force, calling it "separate but equal."

    "We must have American dominance in space. Very importantly, I'm hereby directing the Department of Defense and Pentagon to immediately begin the process necessary to establish the Space Force as the sixth branch of the armed forces. That's a big step," he said in the White House East Room during a meeting of his National Space Council Monday.
    "We are going to have the Air Force and we are going to have the Space Force: separate but equal, it is going to be something so important," he said.
    I have lot's of questions, but here's three to start...

    1) will there be lasers and light sabers?
    2) what about death stars, there'll be one of those, right?
    3) my guess is that this will be modeled after the Empire? If so and you are more of a rebel alliance sort of guy, where do you go to sign up to fly an X-fighter?

    If you go to a "space academy", does that make you a "Space Cadet"?

    Will there be a special salute?

    I think we already have a space force--it's top secret so nobody told Trump about it because he can't be trusted with classified information.

    Space farce is more like it.

    Thought I'd add the appropriate soundtrack for this thread.

    What a trash name. What a waste. W/e shit will be scraped anyway. No need for something like this for atleast a decade, and air force already has a space command that deals with all we need already. Also wouldnt most of the individuals who would be able to be early adopters of some sort of military space force be pilots, so esentially air force or navy?

    wait what? I didnt bring up politics. If they are going to make something as dope as a space force (i mean this literally as a force in space, i did see the irony), they need to do it right. This is not a game son.

    Im saying it is a wasted opportunity for something awesome. Trump could have had a real accomplishment here if he had some talent at naming (look at his twittersaults). I would have voted for him in 2020, but alas

    So is the Space Force going to be in the big parade in November? And how will we see them if they are?
    Damn, we're in a tight spot!

    Fuck you NASA! Space Force is going to make the solar system great again! Especially once they find that wormhole near Jupiter.
    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.
