Did they ever consider the implications if Trump was president? He is a Russian Asset. So Putin is going to start rubbing his hands togethrr at the prospect of another cold war if trump is elected.

But Trump said they'd go to the moon faster and Pence and Bridenstine were space nerds!! Or something like that.
With science missions already suffering a bit, I'd expect that to get even worse under a Trump admin. They're talking about "loyalty" above all else, so their new NASA administrator would definitely be a political hack.
If Hariss chooses kelly as VP the debate is done
Mark Kelly would be awesome.
I'd expect the status quo unless they say otherwise? I wonder if at some point there'll be a move like the Obama admin cancelling Constellation to cut costs and pork. Artemis (SLS/Orion especially) could use a kick in the butt. Weird that those are Constellation leftovers... Gateway should probably also be scaled back or cancelled.
A NASA Administrator like Lori Garver could be interesting. Based on her experience and thoughts on commercial cargo and crew, I guess I'd expect the ISS replacements to ramp up and starting to move further off SLS.
