Trump at a Campaign Rally in Wilmington, North Carolina
Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, pledged to achieve a United States mission to Mars before the end of his potential term by 2029, collaborating with SpaceX CEO and Trump supporter Elon Musk.
“We’re going to reach — and it’s my plan; I’ll talk to Elon: Elon, get those rocket ships going, because we want to reach Mars before the end of my term,” Trump announced during his rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, broadcast live on Newsmax and the free Newsmax2 streaming platform.
“We want to do it, and we want to have also great military protection in space, because that’s where it’s going to be at.”

Trump also showed appreciation to Elon during his rally. He said, “I have such respect for Elon Musk. We love Elon. He endorsed me. What he makes is great. It’s a great product.”
“We will lead the world in space,” Trump told his rally. “Remember, I did Space Force. I did that. I rebuilt the military. I did a lot. But we have Space Force, first time in 79 years since Air Force, first time.”
Space Force was established as the sixth branch of the U.S. military on December 20, 2019, under Trump’s leadership during his first presidential term.
“Think of it: Space Force,” Trump said. “And now we’re leading in space over Russia and China. They were killing us when I took over. And now we’re leading.”
On Saturday, Trump unveiled ambitious new plans for the future of Space Force in a potential next term.
“We will rebuild our cities, including Washington, D.C., making them safe, clean, and beautiful again,” Trump continued. “And we will keep the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency, which we’re losing right now. And if we lose that, it’s like losing a war, and we’re losing it as the world’s reserve currency.”
“This is how we will end the era of inflation, mayhem, and misery under [Vice President] Kamala [Harris] and Crooked Joe and unleash safety, prosperity, and peace for Americans of every race, religion, color, and creed.
“Together, we will deliver low taxes, low regulations, low energy costs, low interest rates, low inflation, so that everyone can afford groceries, a car, and a home.
“We will stop the invasion and end migrant crime. We are going to totally stop this invasion. This invasion is destroying the fabric of our country. We’re going to support our police, strengthen our military, build a missile defense shield around our country, keep critical race theory the hell out of our politics.”
“We’re going to end transgender insanity in our schools. And we’re going to keep men out of women’s sports.”
