Donald Trump didn’t hold back during his October 25, 2024, interview on The Joe Rogan Experience. In a wild, three-hour conversation, the former President hinted that he learned some shocking things about aliens and UFOs during his time in office—and now the internet can’t stop buzzing.
Trump dropped a bombshell when Rogan asked if he was briefed on extraterrestrial visitors. “A lot of interest in the people coming from space, you know,” Trump said, adding, “and I know you’re interested in that.” When Rogan pushed for details, Trump replied, “A lot.”
Trump wasn’t shy about teasing what he knew, even joking, “Based on Hunter Biden, I can say whatever the hell I want.” While Trump insisted UFOs and Area 51 were “never a personal interest,” he did acknowledge, “I get that question as much as almost any question—do you think we have aliens flying around or whatever?”
Trump told Rogan that he spoke to jet pilots who reported strange encounters. “Solid, beautiful people. They saw things, sir, that were very strange—like a round ball,” Trump explained, “but it wasn’t a comet or meteor, and it was going four times faster than an F-22.” He even described the encounter off the coast of San Diego in 2004, where pilots witnessed something moving through the water in ways that “would turn a human into jello.”
Trump speculated that life could exist on other planets. “There’s no reason not to think Mars and these other planets have life,” he said. But Rogan challenged that idea, pointing out that “we’ve had probes and rovers on Mars, and there’s no evidence of even bacterial life.”
Rogan also suggested that some of the so-called UFO sightings could be “Chinese drones, not extraterrestrial craft.” Trump responded, “That could be also.”
During the interview, Rogan revealed he’s trying to get Vice President Kamala Harris on his podcast. While there’s no word yet if Harris will accept, fans are already speculating what that conversation could look like.
Trump’s remarks have reignited the internet’s obsession with UFOs, leaving fans wondering what he really knows about aliens and what the government might be hiding.
