Trump Resets the UFO Narrative in One Minute, Eight Seconds Flat
President Trump dramatically shifted the UFO narrative in an interview with a main stream journalist that was published June 15, 2019, when the topic of UFOs came up.
The President took the ‘UFO narrative’, and reset it accordingly.
In this article, we are going to address the key nuggets of information in the President’s comments.
(Note: The photographs in this article are free license images from The White House and are representative of the topic but are not photographs of the actual interview or statements by the President; the actual video of the interview is linked below.)
Simply put, President Trump, with his bearing and his words, reset the UFO narrative in a way that no other President who has been asked about this topic in recent memory has done.
I’ve hand transcribed the short interview and you can read the text yourself, below. Let’s review the key points that came out of this interview.
From Fantasy to Reality: An Important Reset of the UFO Narrative
If I had to sum up the President’s comments in a single phrase, I’d say he is taking the topic from fantasy to reality:
- President Trump acknowledged the topic with authority.
- President Trump acknowledged actual sightings by Navy pilots.
- President Trump acknowledged having “one very brief meeting on it”.
- President Trump gave permission for those in the military – the pilots – who are seeing these objects to ‘think whatever they think’.
- President Trump acknowledged that something is different about more recent sightings.
Where things go from here regarding any further information or statements from this administration, will be interesting to see.
Declining to ‘Go There’; Setting the Boundaries of Discussion
The President, though, also set clear limits in his statements. Because of this, no one can tag him as agreeing with views that can easily run a wide range in this topic area.
Let’s be clear as well that the President posed a follow up question himself and then rhetorically answered it, saying: “Do I believe it? Not particularly.” [Emphasis added.]
Interestingly, the President’s comments completely took the focus off of aliens or ‘extraterrestrials’, which he was specifically asked about. He deftly side-stepped the extraterrestrial question, preferring instead to compliment Navy pilots, emphasizing their expertise, saying “our great pilots would know”.

GS: One of the things you have, as President, is the access to all information…
DJT: Right
GS: … in the world, all the mysteries out there. I was just struck, in the last couple weeks, we’re reading more and more reports of Navy pilots seeing lots and lots of UFOs.
DJT: Yeah.
GS: Have you been briefed on that?
DJT: I have, I have.
GS: What do you make of it?
DJT: I think it’s probably; I want them to think whatever they think.
They do say, I mean I’ve seen and I’ve read and I’ve heard and I did have one very brief meeting on it but people are saying they’re seeing UFOs.
Do I believe it? Not particularly.
GS: Do you think you’d know, if there were evidence of extraterrestrials?
DJT: Well I think my great, our great pilots would know.
And some of them see things that are a little bit different than in the past.
So we’re going to see. But we’ll watch it you’ll be the first to know.
