Trump's Second Son Slams Bloomberg SpaceX Report, Calling It "Overpromising, Underdelivering, and Misrepresenting"
TechFlow News, August 6, Eric Trump, Trump's second son, posted on platform X criticizing Bloomberg's report on SpaceX, calling it "exaggerated promises, underperformance, and inaccurate claims," and accused the report of poor quality.
Eric Trump stated that SpaceX's payload mass launched into orbit in 2025 accounted for approximately 80% to 85% of the global total, while China accounted for about 8% to 10% during the same period, noting that the launch capacity of a private aerospace enterprise has exceeded that of all other countries combined. SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket completed approximately 165 successful launches in 2025, maintaining a zero-failure record, and reusable boosters have achieved over 30 flights. Eric Trump believes that SpaceX has made significant breakthroughs in reducing launch costs, improving rocket reusability efficiency, and promoting commercial aerospace development, and criticized some media reports for failing to accurately reflect the company's technical achievements.
These remarks stem from his dissatisfaction with Bloomberg's relevant report on SpaceX, but SpaceX's actual market share, global launch proportion, and future development prospects continue to receive close attention from industry institutions and analysts.
