Jane Goodall said she would launch Trump and Musk on one-way trip into space Primatologist said in interview released after her death she would also put Putin, Xi and Netanyahu on that spaceship

“And then I would put [Russian president Vladimir] Putin in there, and I would put [China’s] President Xi. I’d certainly put [Israeli prime minister Benjamin] Netanyahu in there and his far-right government. Put them all on that spaceship and send them off.”
