He's still a capitalist. It would be silly of him to shut down departments that do business with his companies. I could see him canceling SLS. That thing is a boondoggle and everyone knows it. It would cost him a couple of contracts short term, but it would free up NASA budget to do more useful exploration missions in the long term. It would also reduce SpaceX's competition.

What would really be cool is if he shut down subsidies for electric cars. I'd like to see which companies actually survive if that happens.
