President Donald Trump met with the Artemis II crew in the Oval Office on April 29, bragging he could easily handle space travel. While honoring Commander Reid Weizmann, pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch, and Canadian specialist Jeremy Hansen for their record, Lunar Flyby, Trump said he'd have no trouble qualifying. The team flew 252, 756 miles from Earth, topping the 56-year-old Apollo 13 mark. One astronaut, Jared Isaacman, joked they could start working on Trump's application. Trump, at 79 years old, stressed the smarts and fitness needed, claiming he's physically very, very good. The meeting celebrated their history-making trip earlier that month. Social media lit up with roasts, calling out his weight and ego. Koch said astronauts trained their whole lives for this, and his comments disrespected
