TRUMP'S SPACE FORCE Serious or Satire?

Self-identified con comics writer Chuck Dixon created this one-shot...

..which claims to be a "work of satire and parody"!

But, considering the writer's political leanings...is it...or isn't it?

Consider the following...

Don da Con has lost over 100 pounds from his real-world weight!

(Or those spacesuits have built-in Spanx!)

Fellow three-wife-philandering con and hypocrite Newt Gingrich is shown to have tech knowledge far beyond his real-world mental capacity!

And, like many senior citizens (but not anyone under 65 with an average IQ or higher), he wears a baseball cap with a suit or blazer!

We won't even go into the plot point that anyone who disagrees with Don da Con is a disguised alien!

To any rational person, this is, indeed, a satire!

But to a con, (including many of the "deplorables"), the story reads as "possible if not probable".

But then, they thing pro wrestling is unscripted...

Trump's Space Force

(either for yourself, or as a gift for a con friend/relative)

SPACE BUSTERS...the ORIGINAL "Space Force"!

During a speech at the Pentagon at 11:15 am EDT today...

...VP Pence will outline the Drumpf administration's plan to create a new branch of the military focused on defending the ultimate high ground.

You can watch it live HERE!

Were Don the Con's grandiose plans inspired by these comics about "space marines" from his childhood?

(I doubt he actually read any books, so it's unlikely he was inspired by Heinlein's Starship Troopers!)

Published in 1952, the series ran only two issues, with a couple of unpublished stories appearing in other mags later on.

Conceived by Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel, illustrated by comics legends Bernie Krigstein and Murphy Anderson, with covers by Norman Saunders and Allen (no relation to Murphy) Anderson, the series took the concept of the US Marine Corps and transplanted it to outer space in the near-future.

Though not specificially-stated, the Space Busters were Americans and Western Europeans, with no Communist countries or non-white nations represented.

You can read a complete digitally-remastered re-presentation of this apparently-groundbreaking (and still never reprinted) series at our brother RetroBlog, War: Past, Present & Future!

Holiday Reading Room "American Indian Day"

Want to bet Don the John ignores this long-standing holiday?

A somewhat sanitized version of history, but it's well-intentioned.
Also note it points out "Who could blame the Indians for fighting desperately to keep their homes and hunting grounds?", disputing the still-popular concept of Manifest Destiny which goes hand-in-hand with American Exceptionalism!
Why is this comic entitled "Every Day is a Holly Day" instead of "Every Day is a Holiday"?

Because it was given away to kids by grocers who sold Holly Sugar!

Illustrated by John Rosenberger, it's a unique pamphlet covering a number of American holidays, including both Lincoln and Washington's Birthdays (before they were combined into "Presidents' Day"), Mothers' Day (though not Fathers' Day), Flag Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and a couple of holidays we've largely abandoned...Pan-American Day and American Indian Day!

We'll be presenting the other chapters on the dates they fall upon.

Watch for them!

Trump Reading Room EVERY DAY IS A HOLLY DAY "Pan-American Day"

Here's a holiday I'm sure Don (the John) Trump is glad we've abandoned!

The idea of us actually working with those South of the Border is anthema to such as Don the John.

President Obama re-enegerized the idea in 2015, extending it to a week!

Don the John followed it with a less-than-enthuisastic proclamation in 2017, making the usual bellicose veiled threats against the other American countries.

I suggest you read both links, then compare and contrast the attitudes presented by both Presidential proclamations!
