Kellyanne Conway’s husband, George, who is quite possibly the most annoying anti-Trump account we follow, attempted to dunk on President Trump’s Moon-Mars tweet we told you about on Friday but he failed miserably:
For all of the money we are spending, NASA should NOT be talking about going to the Moon – We did that 50 years ago. They should be focused on the much bigger things we are doing, including Mars (of which the Moon is a part), Defense and Science!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 7, 2019
Have a look:
we def must go to moon as a part of mars but only as long as we maintain funding for research on windmill cancer

But what’s more interesting is that the Trump Alert account, which for the most part is an automated bot that alerts followers whenever anyone in the Trump orbit follows, RTs or like a tweet, broke the third wall to scold the lesser Conway for his snark:
PSA: Everyone should stop pretending to not understand Trump’s tweet. Trump is clearly and obviously referring to the NASA programme to get to Mars via the Moon. It’s not a weird Trump thing. It’s literally NASA’s plan.
There’s plenty of real things we can dunk on Trump for. https://t.co/IOckb2YOCn

“Trump Alert” is 100% right, of course. NASA even calls it the “Moon to Mars” program:
Here are a few other examples of blue-check account who know better but are going for the cheap hit anyway:
OFFICIAL DNC STATEMENT:
The moon is not part of Mars.

So this week Trump continued his feud with a dead man, picked a new one with Bette Midler, attacked a royal family member, said Ireland should build a wall on its border with N. Ireland, that he didn't serve in Vietnam b/c it was far away, & the moon was part of Mars. Cool cool.

a little known fact is that, due to gerrymandering, the moon and mars actually *are* in the same district

The Hannity segments arguing that Trump is right about the moon being part of Mars are gonna be lit

And:
Make sure to read all the comments from dumbasses who know nothing about NASA's "Moon to Mars" program. These are serious people. https://t.co/IFYjx33IHj pic.twitter.com/Dbi7HHv7fo

Hollywood needed to get in on the action, too:
Nice crescent Mars tonight

For people that think they’re smarter than the president, there certainly have been quite a few really dumb takes on all of this.
