President Trump and George Stephanopoulos. ABC News.
President Trump said in an interview with ABC News that he had been briefed on UFO's but did not believe that they are extraterrestrial life. ABC News. Trump expressed skepticism of the recent spate of sightings, but said that he trusts the military pilots that are making the reports. He acknowledged the reports are becoming more public and told Stephanopoulos he'd be the "first to know" if it was proven the sightings were related to extraterrestrial life.
My Comment:
A quick follow up to the various reports of UFO activity by the US Navy. Apparently President Trump knows about those reports and has been briefed on them. He's obviously very skeptical but he does say that he trusts his pilots and seems willing to discuss with the media if something comes up.
It's not much but this was a serious question in a serious interview. In the past such a question would have been pretty much out of bounds other than as a human interest joke question. However, things have changed as the UFO sightings we have seen now are actually a potential threat to US pilots and are being taken seriously.
I do think that if it really does turn out that UFO's are real and/or they are extraterrestrial I think President Trump would tell the American people. He's been fairly honest with the American people and quite honestly even if he wanted too, I can see him spilling it on Twitter even if his advisers didn't want him too.
However, there isn't any evidence yet that UFO's are alien tech or even that the phenomenon being filmed is real. I think President Trump is right to be skeptical about the reports. Even though the Navy is taking these sightings seriously, that's about all that needs to be done. Now isn't the time to freak out.
