In a recent episode of the popular Impaulsive podcast hosted by YouTuber Logan Paul, former President Donald Trump opened up about his thoughts on the possibility of alien life. Trump, who is currently campaigning for the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election, shared his views on the subject during a nearly hour-long interview.
During the conversation, Trump acknowledged that “there could be” alien life out in the universe, but he was not entirely convinced. The former president also revealed that he had discussions with military pilots during his first term about strange aerial phenomena they had encountered.
“I’ve met with pilots, and they’re not conspiratorial, they’re not crazy,” Trump said. “They tell me stories that you wouldn’t believe. And I’ve seen things that are really, really out there.”
NEW: Donald Trump says the existence of aliens is believable, says he has talked to pilots like "Tom Cruise but taller" who told him about UFOs they saw.

“I’ve met with pilots, like beautiful Tom Cruise, but taller, OK?” Trump said on the podcast. “Handsome, perfect people. (They say) ‘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.”
“I have access and I speak to people about it,” Trump said. “I’ve had actually meetings on it, and they will tell you there’s something going on. It makes sense that there could be. I’ve never been convinced, even despite that. You know, for some reason, it’s just not my thing, but a lot of people believe that it’s true.”
Trump’s comments come amid growing interest in unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. In recent years, the U.S. government has released several reports detailing unexplained aerial phenomena observed by military personnel.
Despite his openness to the possibility of alien life, Trump made it clear that he is more concerned about “illegal aliens” crossing the U.S. southern border.
“I know there are illegal aliens out there, but those are the ones that come through the border,” Trump joked during the podcast.
The Impaulsive podcast episode featuring Trump is expected to draw a large audience, as the former president continues to be a polarizing figure in American politics.
