Hey! I have an idea!

Let's convince The Donald that he can be the first US President in space. Then put him on the first Space-X manned flight. If we tell him it'll make him rich and even more famous, he might just go for it.

Who knows? He might make it back...

Really. First President in space? Who could resist that.

Some SpaceX missions are successful, after all. If we put Elon Musk on the job of recruiting Trump, it might just work out.

Then I could sell the damn thing and pay off some bills. That'd be great.

Otherwise, I have no use for such a vehicle.

There is a Space X Launch scheduled for tomorrow..

Not intended to be manned... but technically it would be if 45 were aboard.
