Trump paused to remark on the difficulty of being an astronaut.

“It’s a pretty tough job,” Trump said before turning to Cruz. “I don’t know, Ted, would you like to do it? I don’t think I would.”

Cruz shook his head indicating that he would not want to be an astronaut … [and] piped in with a proposal.

“You could send Congress to space,” said Cruz.

“We could,” Trump said turning to look at Pence. “What a great idea that could be.”
