Brownsville, Texas: Kai Trump, the 17-year-old granddaughter of President-elect Donald Trump, recently shared a behind-the-scenes look at her journey to Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket launch. Traveling with her grandfather to Brownsville, Texas, she gave viewers an exclusive tour of Donald Trump’s private jet, affectionately known as Trump Force One.
Posting a video on YouTube, Kai described the trip as “Watching a Rocket Launch at SpaceX with Elon Musk!” The footage showed the luxurious features of the jet, including cozy couches, flat-screen televisions, and even a separate room with a king-sized bed.
During the flight, Kai, dressed in black jeans, a SKIMS top, and a Louis Vuitton belt, was joined by her friend, Emma Markin. The two had fun, laughing together and attempting a TikTok dance on the plane.
Before landing in Texas, Kai headed to the front of the plane and into the cockpit to observe the landing. A “Donald bobblehead” was visible on the cockpit dashboard, adding a personal touch to the space.
Upon arrival in Texas, a car was waiting to take her to the SpaceX facility, where she met up with her family, including her grandfather and father. The video not only featured the grandeur of the private jet but also captured the historic SpaceX rocket launch.
After the launch, Kai mingled with high-profile guests, including her grandfather, President-elect Trump, and billionaire Elon Musk. Republican Senators Ted Cruz, Bill Haggerty, Kevin Cramer, and Representative Ronny Jackson, as well as golfer Bryson DeChambeau, also made appearances in the video.
The viewers also witnessed the excitement of the rocket launch, though the Starship booster’s landing didn’t go as planned. It ended up in the Gulf of Mexico instead of landing on the designated pad.
“The noise when it was going up was insane,” Kai said in the video. She added that she asked her grandfather if he would ever go into space. His response? “No, I would not volunteer to go into space.”
