The plots of disaster movies that portray the end of civilization often begin with high-level Government Officials ignoring the warning of scientists.

The thing I don't get about this is that even if the theory is "SpaceX can do it instead" they, in fact, will not unless NASA is paying them to do it, which requires budget
First the rumour was a 20% budget cut. Then, 50%. Now the president's NASA budget is out and it's a 68% cut to astrophysics ($1.5B to $487M).
Even if this gets reversed in four years, we will *never* recover the missions, partners, people who will be gone.
