JD Vance Mocked After Saying Goal Of U.S. Is To ‘Conquer The Stars’

Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance got all starry-eyed at a post by Elon Musk and was thoroughly mocked for his comments.

“I believe the destiny of this country is to conquer the stars. Whatever your views of Elon’s politics, this is something that should inspire all of us.”

But while Vance may say the destiny of the U.S. is to “conquer the stars,” many people responding to the tweet had other ideas.

Like how to avoid electing a dicator in a few weeks.

Others thought we should focus on different priorities.

But one person suggested there was a real end game to going into space.
