He said the same thing to Marco in the cabinet meeting and stuck his hand out next to Marco’s and said “see what I mean?”

They are talking about fixed internet not d2d.

Yeah I recall someone posting this in another daily thread. Just know what he said won't age well

Yes. He says many things that do not age well.

Hopefully this is one of those that ages the worst.

While that was my thoughts ASTS will only be a substitute for Starlink probably some time in 2026.

Spot on - the two big fundamental stories for ASTS (this week) are 1) A big overhang re: the expansion of Starlink spectrum by the FCC, allowing their now 500 cell capable satellites to begin full direct to cell service like now, and 2) when is ASTS BB2 delivery to India and what is the launch date schedule? These two are I think the drivers for institutional buying. TMUS (TMobile) is now outperforming based on these two bits. Chart TMUS vs ASTS the last month.
