I'm the first to admit I'm not fully up on this situation, I'm just trying to understand how this got postponed yesterday and when Trump said F that, he's grandstanding?

Don't get me wrong, he grandstands, but I don't see that in this situation.
Let’s defer the remaining conversation until the astronauts get down. Then it will all make sense with the grandstanding. It’s his m.o.

I see this message as creating the strawman. People who don’t know what has been going on were gonna take it and say look at Trump, he’s getting things done that Biden couldn’t… even when it was already in process. Just look at Elon‘s response of in the first post retweet. As if he just got these orders.

So now when they are down, people are gonna look at this tweet and say nothing happened until Trump stepped in. Trump will say nothing happened until Trump stepped in. So this will be the starting point for that. I get it. It’s politics. But I don’t see Trump as anything beyond politics.

I get what you're saying, but isn't this how politics work? Whoever is at the steering wheel at the time is the one who is going to take credit. Trump is the personality that he is, which I would assume he will take credit. He gets shit done, at least in my eyes.

I would agree 100% with this if it weren't for the recent delay.

He saw an opening and took it, it's what all good marketeers do. 😆

I bet the Astronuats are glad somebody said "lets get this shit done ASAP, bring them home" and kept their lives and this sitution on the front burner.
