Both, actually. Has said he has plans not only for Mars, but also that it could be used For quick trips around the planet.

Mars sounds like the better destination, but I am a bit concerned about exporting our problems, not like Mars has done anything to deserve it.

Once the truth comes out about their shenanigans they will want to kick the Russians out again anyways.

At least the GOP is consistent in applying their moral standards (such as they aren’t).

Zuckerberg, too…

Putting them in orbit permanently works just as well if not better than sending them to Mars.

I was on a plane once across from a mother and her son, say 5 years old, who kept kicking the seat in front of him. A flight attendant said she had to make him stop or they’d be put off the plane, and she was genuinely astonished that she’d been asked to do this obviously impossible thing. “How’m I supposed to make him stop?” she kept saying. It’s not an exact analogy but I did wonder what ailed her that she could think that way.

Then why are you there?

Pressed again on whether Trump said that to Putin during their call last month, O’Brien insisted that he does not get into conversations that the President has with foreign heads of state because “those are private conversations.”

I’ll give him credit, he’s an accomplished slippery little lying triangulating lickspittle.

By now there is multitude of explanations. No matter what they had first, you can be assured every single corrupt interaction of Trump with Russians has been meticulously recorded by Kremlin.

I know this goes through the minds of a greater percentage of Trump voters than they themselves would like to acknowledge:

“I’ve come this far…Might as well see it through.”

How about we offer to hang his portrait in every post office in America if he will resign. Or even if he won’t resign.

Interesting. One of them might have spent time mining comedy routines for ideas, because they’ve done similar things before.

I imagine some already have been. You wouldn’t call them famously quick studies.
