Donald Trump has opened up on the potential existence of aliens, and revealed discussions he has had with 'serious' fighter jet pilots who claim to have seen UFOs in America.
The former President appeared as a guest on YouTuber-turned-WWE star Logan Paul's podcast on Thursday, and no subject was off the table as they discussed the war in Gaza, Joe Biden, America's drug crisis and deepfakes.
Trump was even quizzed on extra-terrestrials and asked whether he believes in the existence of aliens, UFOs or UAPs.
'It's such an interesting question,' Trump began. 'I've met with pilots that look just like you [Logan Paul]. These are perfect people, not conspiratorial, they're not crazy. Like beautiful Tom Cruise, but taller. Okay, handsome, perfect people.
[They say] "Sir, there was something there that was round in form and going four times faster than my super jet fighter plane." And I look at these guys, and they really mean it.

'Am I a believer? No, I probably I can't say I am. But I have met with people that are serious people that say there's some really strange things that they see flying around out there.'
Trump then goes on to discuss Roswell, an area in New Mexico that has become a popular tourist attraction following the events and myths surrounding the 1947 crash of a US Air Force balloon.
'I think it's the number one [tourist attraction in America], the lines of people waiting,' Trump revealed, before being asked if he has access to government 'information' regarding the potential of alien life.
The phenomenon of 'unexplained' UFOs has gripped America, but Trump isn't a believer

Paul left his fans divided after announcing the former president as a podcast guest this week
'I have access, and I speak to people about it... I've had actually meetings on it. And they will tell you there's something going on, when they say things are going four times faster than my beautiful top-of-the-line airplane.
'People that are very smart and very solid have said they believe there is something out there and it makes sense that there could be... [but] I've never been convinced.
'For some reason, it's not my thing. But a lot of people believe that it's true. A lot of very good solid people believe it's true.'
