We need to pursue this. I'm old enough to remember people dead set against the space program and the derision and negative comments and the mockery of making the first contact with the little green men. The advances in science that benefit all of are being used by us today. We are after all dependent on our satellites for communication, and military readiness to keep us safe.
Even if you believe we need to have a satellite space defense, how can anybody justify the bigger government of a separate agency with its own additional expenses that go with the extra commanders and bureaucracy?
We already have a space force. It's called the Air Force.
Two things. First, I would vote yes if it would be headquartered in San Francisco and if they call it Star Fleet. Second, as President, Trump would be privy to the secrets of Area 51 and he has already demonstrated that he is willing to do what his Predecessors were not (like move the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem), so maybe a Space Force isn't so much about protecting and defending us against terrestrial enemies as it is extra-terrestrial enemies...I'm just saying.

I don't care what you call it
I don't care what you call it, or who administers it, and why not the Air Force which is an offshoot of The United States Army Air Forces (USAAF).
I don't care what they call
I don't care what they call it. Being a conservative, I do care about the wasteful spending that goes with creating another branch of the military.
When we actually logistically
When we actually logistically need another military branch and the command structure associated with it sure, but we just don't right now.
Seriously, the government can't even fund a wall, good luck funding this.
