Everyone Is Roasting Donald Trump For Saying The Moon Is Part Of Mars
"I regret to inform you that Trump somehow lost Earth's moon to Mars in a bad deal."
Bit of a slow news day, so how about we check in with President Shit-For-Brains over in the United States? I’ll just pull up the ol’ Twitter feed and… yep, apparently Donald Trump thinks the Moon is part of Mars. Sure. That checks out.
In an incoherent tweet (is there any other kind?) on Saturday, President Trump declared that “For all of the money we are spending, NASA should NOT be talking about going to the Moon – We did that 50 years ago. They should be focused on the much bigger things we are doing, including Mars (of which the Moon is a part), Defense and Science!”

Trump’s decree seems like a bit of a backflip, given he tweeted “we are going back to the Moon” less than a month ago. But also, let’s not act like that’s the biggest problem here.
Take it away, internet!

I look forward to the news reporting on this: “Trump says that the Moon is a part of Mars. Some scientists disagree.” https://t.co/I5iEHnZN5k

Factual error: The moon is not part of Mars.

As JFK famously said, “We choose to go to the Moon not because it is easy, but because it is Mars”

Imagine right now it’s your job, your actual career, to type the words “Of course, the president knows the moon is not Mars”
