It's important to remember that before Jan 20, 2025, the astronauts had a way home and had not been stranded by anyone. This is known and is a fact.
Then, sometime after that date, Musk stranded them. Considering his working relationship with Trump, one can assume that Trump decided that this was acceptable. So, President Trump and Musk stranded them. We know this is true because President Trump and Musk said they were stranded. If they said they were stranded, it meant that the plan in place had been pulled, and the only people that could do that were Trump and Musk.
Sometime after that, they elected to rescue them again.
If you take President Trump and Musk's word, they abandoned the astronauts at some point. The only way this is not true is if they were lying to the American people.
- ergocoder 2y agoJust curious. Why didn't they come back earlier? Turning 8 days into 9 months seems bad. Really really bad.
- jasonlotito 2y agoThat's entirely immaterial to my comment. You can read the entire story in other locations. However, none of that changes the fact that my comment is accurate.
- ergocoder 2y agoI read it, and it sounded more like an excuse. Astronauts could have come down anytime but for this weird reason they decided to hang out up there in an unplanned 8 month trip. > my comment is accurate Not really. You mentioned Musk stranded them after Jan 20. They came down less than 2 months after that date. That seems fast for a space trip. Faster than the other 6 months...
