“Space — there’s going to be a lot of things happening in space, because space is the world’s newest warfighting domain," he said. “America’s superiority in space is absolutely vital and we’re leading, but we’re not leading by enough, but very shortly we’ll be leading by a lot.”
Ivanka Trump was at Friday's ceremony, as was first lady Melania Trump, who introduced her husband and wished the audience of troops a merry Christmas.
