Trump's deep cuts to US science funding eliminated thousands of grants and jobs.
Meanwhile, China is dramatically increasing R&D spending, producing far more STEM graduates, and its share of top-tier research is projected to soon double that of the US.
The success of China's ambitious space program is the best example of the change in scientific and geopolitical supremacy.

More graduates is not the same as top tier graduates
They copy engineering blueprints from Americans without being subject to pattent law
Without Americans and Europeans the so called Chinese engineers would not know how to build stuff that works in fact there stuff already does not work
There escalators & elevators are deadly
The Chinese and Indian space programs are propaganda just like the American space program is propaganda
The only real space research is military secrets
The NASA moon landing footage has the words simulation in big letters on the screen for part of the video
The military might very well be doing space trave and space research l but the NASA stuff is fake propaganda and not real space research
Cutting the official NASA science budget will not effect things in terms of space science because it is fake
The real space science budget is hidden in the military budget
Going high enough in the sky is called space science
