Thank God, it was unmanned, and I wonder how long before Musk blames the democrats or California and silently raids the tax payers to pay for their debacle.

Everybody should take a chill pill independent of what they think of Elonia. This things happen, it is called "Frontier". Many ships sank, planes crashed and people perished before we could safely get norovirus on cruise ships or complain about the leg room in economy

In fairness, no. The manned rockets have a great track record. The unmanned tests have about the same track record as NASA did during their pre-Apollo era testing.

Glad our tax dollars went to Musk’s failing hobbies instead of things we actually want to support like feeding and housing the poor, ensuring we all have health care or anything along the lines of actually helping Americans.

President Musk, sorry, Trump, won't take any steps to curb Elon's reckless rocket launches. One gets the idea Musk doesn't care what damage his exploding rockets might cause or who they might kill. Unlike Elon, NASA once took great pains to make sure its rockets weren't a danger to civilians.

So the day after Bezos had a successful launch of his Blue Origin New Glenn rocket, Musk told SpaceX to launch one whether ready or not, blowing up tax dollars and by pure luck his “ejaculation debris” not hitting a commercial airliner? Luckily only thousands of airline passengers were delayed

there was a time when this would have made me sad. Then Elon, 'Musked around' to the idiot place and ruined my illusions of his intelligence and decency.

The guy that did this wants to take all your money so he can keep blowing up his toys and throw temper tantrums on his social media platform until we think he’s cool.
