Why is Trump moving Space Command headquarters to Alabama? Inside the decision

Writes David Martin

See article here.

Huntsville, the largest city in Alabama, is now poised to become a central location in operations to expand U.S. military might to the cosmos to compete with rivals like Russia and China.

Alabama city population from my 2012 AAA Road Atlas:

Birmingham    242,820
Montgomery   201, 568
Mobile,             198,915
Huntsville       158,216

But, amazingly, the article is right.  Huntsville is, indeed, now the largest city in Alabama.

And why is that?  The article tells us in so many words:

The city is a major hub for defense contractors and aerospace companies, including Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman. The Army’s Space and Missile Defense Command is also located in Huntsville, which is nicknamed “Rocket City” because of its role in building the first rockets that helped the U.S. reach the moon.

And what’s wrong with Colorado?

“The problem I had with Colorado, one of the big problems, they do mail-in voting,” Trump said. “So they have automatically crooked elections.”

Trump is really on the money with that one.  Check out Paul Craig Roberts’ latest article.

The purple state of Virginia better vote Republican in its off-year election this fall for the benefit of Wallops Island.
