I haven’t heard all he has to say about his proposed space program, but it is my understanding that he is wanting to give free enterprise and the private sector more of a seat at the table vis a vis funding.
If it is PRIVATELY FUNDED, then I’m all for it. As long as the taxpayers aren’t expected to foot the bill space exploration is fine. Let those who want to spend fortunes for no tangible return put their money up and I’ll cheer them and hope they get something out of it.
