you can tie that.

I think Trump really means it.

I think he, Trump is a gut level, instinctful politician, right? And he's not a, you know analytical phd write a thesis on it he understands things in the gut and i think he's he's figured out before most other politicians there's a few newt gingrich and a george brown but they're the one two three percenters but trump has figured out that this is really a big thing and like if you actually tie it together that the power of the frontier to you know, forge us into our mindset and our character, make us better versions of ourselves.

That's what the frontier did until it closed in 1890. but you reopen the frontier this is actually a way to make america great again forever right re constantly reforge the american character the best we can be as people i think that's what everybody wants in both sides but trump has put his finger on it and i think this is going to grow and there's going to be resistance to it there's people who don't want that there's actually a small minority progressive wing that wants to hand over control of the frontier to the united nations and not have any development and there was an op-ed in space news about three or four weeks ago there was a 70-page report coming out of the united nations and then there's the moon agreement and 79 said you know let's create a a u.n authority to control the frontier and you know if you develop the the moon you have to share all the benefits of it with every country on earth you know basically a communist manifesto of the moon right and so and then there's the free enterprise liberty you know enhancing way of doing it which we can invite the whole world to join us i think trump gets that And that I think there's an opportunity here.
