Trump Implies Pilots Saw UFOs
Former President Donald Trump said this week that he spoke with military pilots who saw unidentified flying objects (UFOs). While the president’s statement did not confirm the existence of extraterrestrial craft, he said that he sought more information in the case.
Trump said during a podcast with social media influencer Logan Paul that some of the pilots saw things that they could not explain.
Paul asked the former president about “aliens.” He said that current rules in Congress were “it’s confusing and upsetting a lot of Americans because something’s going on.”
“There are unidentified aerial phenomena in the sky. We don’t know what they are. Do you?” asked Paul.
“So it’s such a question I do get a lot, and it’s such an interesting question. I’ve met with pilots that look just like you, actually. Okay, they have more of a crew cut,” said Paul.
Donald Trump says a pilot told him he saw a UFO that was “round in form and going 4 times faster” than his fighter jet.
Trump says it’s “certainly believable” to him that aliens exist.

“But these are perfect people. And they’re not conspiratorial, they’re not crazy, and they tell me stories that they’ve seen things that you wouldn’t believe,” Trump said, calling them “handsome.”
“‘Sir, there was something there that was round in form and going like four times faster than my super jet fighter plane.’ And I look at these guys, and they really mean it,” he said.
Trump said that he was not a “believer” but met with “seriious people” who said that there are “really strange things that they see flying around out there.” When asked about whether he had “access” to the information, he said yes.
He also said that it was possible that the “Deep State” was hiding information.
The topic of UFOs came up during Trump’s time in the White House. Former White House press secretary and current Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) was asked about it at the time. She did not state whether Trump believed in UFOs.
The former president also stated that he would release the last remaining files regarding the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy. Trump made a similar promise during the 2016 election. He released some files, and some files were later released by President Joe Biden.
However, a small but significant number of documents related to the slaying remain secret.
