Trump cannot send the O’Brat up there no matter how tempting it sounds.
We do not need the O’Brat growing vegetables or WEED to claim Mars and rule it as Emperor O’Brat.
The Martian soil, according to our rovers, is toxic. It has high concentrations of perchlorate salts (as, most likely, does the “salt” slurry water that has been discovered remotely). Contrary to what Hollywood and the media depict, we don’t even know if plants can grow in real Martian soil, and we don’t know if they’d be edible if they could. There have been some attempts to try to recreate the soil in the lab and grow stuff in it, but we don’t know for sure if we’ve replicated it closely enough.
This sort of thing is why I have been saying for years that the popular notion of going straight to Mars to build a colony, with no advance prep or boots-on-the-ground exploration, is just asking for Roanoke II.

Sure he can; do it, like some of the original ideas for one-way to the moon — work out getting the guys back later. Except, BOINGO, is a one-way flight. AND, like that Solomon Epstein guy in the Expanse, accidentally on purpose, MISS the orbit, jam the gas on, and aim for deep space….
Malatrope
Apr 25 2017 at 12:09 am
Work the orbit just right and it wouldn’t take much fuel at all to miss Mars and spend eternity going ’round and ’round, passing the Earth every few years. We could point up at night and explain to our grandchildren that this is what they can expect if they grow up to be schmucks…
No return trip. Heh. Some of the colonists in the New World were deported from England because they could not stop being petty criminals. Read Moll Flanders. Defoe was only reporting what he knew about. Moll represented many women. And then there was Botany Bay.
Although it does seem attractive to send the useless twits who want to rid the world of the ‘stain of humans’, I think they are prime candidates to go first. One way ticket.
Unfortunately, Menkar (Alpha Ceti) is not a good candidate as it has used up its hydrogen and is coming to the end of its starry life in the Whale. (Alpha Ceti was the actor for Ceti Alpha in the Wrath of Khan, in case you’ve forgotten.)
Anyway, someone has to start going, so it might as well be the biggest troublemakers, right? Right?

There is a large identifiable silt layer deposited in the Mediterranean Sea off South Africa where the farm topsoil of North Africa washed into the sea after the Muslim owned goats ate all of everything in the Christian’s farm fields.

The Nile is South of the Mediterranean. Mental brain poof. Those early Muslim victories helped bring about staggered Dark Ages in different parts of Europe and in Western Civilization.
According to the progs we are supposed to feed them, house them, educate them, keep them healthy, and protect them. Sounds an awful lot like a pet to me. And that is a pet I would absolutely give up to keep a Muslim neighbor happy.
