Look, Musk ain’t all that.

I ran across some videos spouting his so called wisdom and basically he rides technology by the seat of his pants. He is more of a businessman than engineer and he will never be a scientist or scholar. He is a populist icon that has hired talent to put together technology no one else wanted.

He is doing to Trump what he has done to all his other projects. Yes, Trump is an Elon project and why Elon’s son hates Trump. 

Elon has convinced himself he is god. Technology can do that. He believes the best thing that can happen to the USA is to replace  government workers with algorithms. No way in hell will that be an improvement. Ask yourself how many times in a day are you waiting for computers to do THEIR job. Algorithms can be controlled and by a handful of people. Musk’s attack on NASA is a direct assault on the country’s national security. 

DOGE can be replaced with people that can evaluate the practical application of technology and roll it out incrementally to be certain it works well.

NASA can have private contractors to assist with it’s work, but, this is proof of the idiocy of a Trumpland ambition.

Musk hasn’t been involved with the important meetings with NASA that include the national security of the USA AND allies. This entire mess is an outrage!

Imagine Starlink replacing every defense satellite the military owns. Musk lost an entire shipment of Starlink to a solar storm because HE and HIS TEAM never got the launch date right to avoid the folly. NASA knew better than to fight a solar storm and the scientists at the Goddard Space Space Flight Center (click here) were the first to state the solar wind makes living in space life threatening and will cause death.

Musk likes to ignore his huge, expensive, and COMPROMISING mistakes and simply move on to the next folly. The USA can’t afford Musk flying by the seat of his CEO pants. His mistakes will destroy this county and add to the deficit.

When President Kennedy launched the space program it was in reaction to Sputnik. The USA space program continued with manned missions because of Yuri Gagarin. The purpose of NASA’s number 1 mission has always been national defense. Musk has too much conflict of interest and doesn’t have “the chops” to know what is vital to national defense and what isn’t. 

Example: Musk and Space X doesn’t have a clue about national defense and can be done away with as partners to any space program. How grand it must have been to hire novice engineers while OCCUPYING NASA’s paid for infrastructure.
