NASA is too beholden to politics… You can’t do 7 year builds and missions when the Senate flips every 4 years and has to kill everything the other side did on principle that it has a D or R attached to it. Everything is political.

<.< Legitimate question, what was the last thing each party killed that was put in place by the other party?

It is usually due to “budget cuts” as the easiest way to kill a project is to defend it. Juno Jupiter flyby Maven mission to mars New horizons kbo flyby Terra mission-earth science satellite Aqua mission -earth science satellite DSCOVR SLS-which may actually be a bad program but is a good example of the political issues with NASA vs senate.
