Arnold Schwarzenegger took a swipe at President Donald Trump on Thursday after Trump asked those in attendance at the National Prayer Breakfast to pray for the ratings of the "Apprentice."

Schwarzenegger, the current host of the "Apprentice" and former governor of California, responded to Trump by saying that the two should switch jobs, Heat Street reports. This came as a response to Trump's jabs at Schwarzenegger Thursday morning, when the president said that his former television show's ratings were much lower under the former Mr. Universe. The White House said that Trump's remarks were meant to be lighthearted. But no matter how Trump meant it, Schwarzenegger took it seriously.

Schwarzenegger responded to Trump with a video uploaded to Twitter.

"Hey Donald, I have a great idea: Why don't we switch jobs?" Schwarzenegger said. "You take over TV because you're such an expert in ratings, and I take over your job, so then people can finally sleep comfortably again."

A spokesman for Schwarzenegger also said that the actor is praying that Trump can improve his approval ratings.
