The irrepressible Keith Cowing of NASA Watch decides to smear the president of the United States before embarking on a long-winded rhapsody about Star Trek.

“In light of the naked racism coming from the White House and the impact that it has had on societal events of late I need to say something. We are stronger as a result of our diversity - not weakened by it. Humanity evolved elsewhere - not in America. As such we are all immigrants. Full stop.”

The problem is, besides the fact that what Cowing said about the president is false, is that Trump, by reviving deep space human exploration, has done more to enable a future much like Trek more than his predecessor, who claimed to be a fan, ever did.

Besides, if the Space Force is not a predecessor to Star Fleet, one would be greatly surprised.
