yes
I think Trump is trying to talk about this at 6:50 into Countdown
fact check... Eloon has never landed one of his rockets on the moon. And the "engines" are not engines but the entire 1st stage of the rocket that lands on a platform at sea ( not a raft but a fairly large ship ). Wings would be of no use to land a rocket using nothing but your standard rocket engine plus quite a few side thrusters and a decently powerful computer and sensors to land a rocket on it's tail... plus the extending landing legs... and the idea is not exactly "New" See any cartoon with Marvin the Martian from Bugs Bunny landing on the moon or some other planet will show the rocket either sliding on it's belly or landing tail down.
Anyway it is the incoherent ramblings of an idiot with dementia.

The beauty of Keith's "video's" is that you have no need to watch them. In fact, that would be useless as he

Trump describes the Space-X 1st stages kind of like someone from the 1920's seeing it for the first time.

Keith is one of the very few remaining TRUE journalists. I trust him more than anyone else identifying as a journalist.

Keith is political commentator not a journalist, only "journalism" he's done was sports related
