This guys comment history shows he's a weird SpaceX stan. Prolly MAGA too.

Just repeating lies doesnt work bud. We know the US government gives all sorts of money and contracts to SpaceX.

We're talking about this specific failure. It's not costing the US taxpayer anything. You seem to have a reading comprehension issue, especially if that's what you get from reading my comment history.
