He continued humorously, “I think I’m not maybe heaven-bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven.”
Despite his remarks, the president added that he took pride in improving people’s lives. “But I’ve made life a lot better for a lot of people,” Trump added.
