Last week, President-elect Donald Trump had the opportunity to join SpaceX founder Elon Musk in witnessing the launch of the massive Starship rocket. As they watched the rocket take off into space, it was clear that Trump was in awe of Musk's accomplishment. In fact, just moments before the launch, Trump had praised Musk's intelligence, claiming that his IQ was one of the highest out there.
During his 2024 campaign, Trump did everything he could to appeal to American voters. From eating at McDonald's to climbing into a garbage truck, he went to great lengths to connect with the people. However, the question remained: would he be willing to ride a SpaceX rocket, an experience that only the wealthiest of individuals have had the chance to do?
Luckily, we have an answer from someone who was there to witness the launch firsthand. Trump's 17-year-old granddaughter, Kai, was by her grandpa's side at the Texas ranch where the launch took place. In her latest video on her YouTube channel, she revealed the conversation she had with Trump about the possibility of riding in the rocket.
"I asked grandpa, 'Would you go in it?'" Kai shared. To which Trump responded with a firm, "No." It seems that even the thrill-seeking president-elect has his limits.
