Lara Trump mentioned her father-in-law, President Donald Trump, not too long ago made her consider “there’s more to” the rumors about extraterrestrial life and that he’ll ship a speech about it on the “right time.”
On the “Pod Force One” podcast Wednesday, host Miranda Devine requested the Trump member of the family if she thinks the president is “about to make an announcement on UFOs” after former President Barack Obama mentioned that aliens are “real” over the weekend. (Obama later clarified that he’d seen no proof of that in his time within the White House.)
“What’s funny is, we’ve kind of asked my father-in-law about this, ’cause we’re like, ‘Well, what do you know?’” responded Trump, who’s married to the president’s son Eric. “Miranda, we all want to know about the UFOs. We all want to know what’s going on.”
“And he played a little coy with us,” she continued. “And so that of course led us to believe — Eric and I were like, ‘Oh my gosh, if he won’t even, like, fully tell us, maybe there’s more to it.’”
Trump later added, “I think my father-in-law’s actually said it — that there is some speech that he has that, I guess at the right time, and I don’t know when the right time is, he’s gonna break out and talk about [it]. And it has to do with maybe some sort of extraterrestrial life, so to speak.”
Noting that she considers herself a “numbers person,” Trump informed Devine that it could be “pretty wild” to assume that we’re alone within the universe.
“I don’t have any information. I feel like there might be information out there, and hopefully it’s going to be able to be told to all of us very soon. We’ll see,” she added.
Devine then pressed Trump on whether or not she thinks the president “acts as if he believes there are UFOs.”
“I mean, he’s kind of been very cool about it. … The way he says things, they make a difference sometimes,” she replied.
Her father-in-law has “been a little different about” the subject of alien life, she mentioned, “So, it makes me personally think that there’s something that he knows that the rest of us don’t know.”
While the president has alluded to receiving details about the existence of UFOs through the years, he has additionally expressed skepticism about extraterrestrials, telling podcaster Joe Rogan in 2024 that he has by no means been “a believer.”
