It is clear that the meaning is that going to the Moon is part of the project of going to Mars. Reading comprehension!

Yes, but the full quote has Trump start by complaining that NASA is talking about going to the Moon, then saying one of the things they should focus on instead of that is going to the Moon. That doesn't really make Trump look any smarter.


I read the parenthetical as clarifying that he isn't suggesting that we shouldn't go to the Moon. Rather, it's not enough to only go to the Moon.


He literally said "we shouldn't talk about going to the moon", if it's a stop on the way there, you're just gonna ignore it? Or what?

You don't have to defend everything ffs


You can't take anything Trump says literally. He just doesn't do literal meaning. The meaning is very clear in this case, notwithstanding that you need to go beyond the literal meaning of his words to understand them properly.
