Critics Roll Their Eyes At Trump's Promise Of A "Super-duper Missile"

May 15th, 2020 was a very Spaceballs-esque day for Donald Trump, as he coined two new Trumpisms and unveiled the official flag for the Space Force.

After coining America's effort to develop a coronavirus vaccine and/or re-open the economy "Operation Warp Speed,", Trump began touting the progress of the "Space Force," the branch of the military he helped create that will deal with extra-terrestrial matters.

At a ceremony unveiling the flag of the Space Force, Trump hinted at a new weapon which is evidently "17 times" faster than anything China or Russia has developed. "I call it the 'super-duper missile,'" he said.
