Anyone with half a brain would recognize how important being able to control the space around earth is. Most communication, especially regarding military is satellite based. So is the use of most specialized weapons. It’s the future of all military operations.
Nobody is claiming that the U.S. should abdicate the ability to track and/or deal with space-based threats. But before Stubby McBonespurs created Space Force, such things were done by the Air Force, and it could have continued to do so if they were so tasked.
The issue is not "should the U.S. deal with space-based threats/communication", but should they waste the resources to make it a separate branch of the military, and just how embarrassed should they be in using a Star Fleet ripoff as a logo and the name "guardians". Neither installs much confidence in the civilian population.
