Trump Vows To Put A Man On The Moon. Someone Should Introduce Him To Buzz Aldrin.

And he's going to end "socialism," he promises supporters at Louisiana rally.

President Donald Trump made two head-turning promises at his Louisiana campaign rally Friday: He’s going to put an end to socialism — and put a man on the moon.

The crowd in Lake Charles roared.

Two problems: What socialism is he talking about? Social Security? His $28 billion in subsidies to his “patriot farmers” to help them survive his trade war with China?

And 12 Americans have already walked on the moon , beginning in 1969 with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin . Trump actually has met Aldrin , but apparently they didn’t discuss the moonwalk.

Twitter wits were flying high over the apparent gaffe.
