    First, stop calling it a “moonshot.” That only bolsters the Republican argument. They’d used the word at least 25 times before I got far enough into the article to know they weren’t talking about experiments in space. Experiments a reasonable person might think it could be reasonable to cut.

      It sounds like the issue is you don’t know an idiom then…

      “Moonshot” is something that sounds impossible, but doesn’t mean it is impossible.
