- blased 2y agoWell Biden can't really give a speech due to being undeniably old to the point of incoherence (what led to him dropping his candidacy). Trump did Operation Warpspeed and created Space Force, and openly talked about that, he also openly supports Elon Musk running his own scientific enterprises. So I'm not sure what the argument is for America not talking about its own scientific achievements.
