Yesterday, Donald Trump, Jr. interviewed his father for his father's re-election campaign for Father's Day and the President said disclosed something on the Roswell (New Mexico) flying saucer crash in 1947.

According to NBCDFW:

President Donald Trump says he’s heard some interesting things about Roswell, but he’s not sharing even with his eldest child. 

Trump made the comments Thursday in a Father’s Day-themed interview with his son Don Trump Jr., hosted by the president's reelection campaign. Don Jr. wound down his interview by jokingly asking his Dad/President if he would ever divulge more information about Roswell, the New Mexico city known for its proximity to arguably most famous UFO event — “and let us know what’s really going on.” 

Trump responded, “I won’t talk to you about what I know about it, but it’s very interesting.” 

In 1947, a rancher discovered unidentifiable debris in his sheep pasture outside Roswell. Air Force officials said it was a crashed weather balloon, but skeptics questioned whether it was in fact at extraterrestrial flying saucer. Decades later the U.S. military acknowledged the debris was related to a top-secret atomic project. Still, the UFO theory has flourished. 

The president in the past has spoken skeptically about the possibility that there is something out there. Last year Trump said he received short briefing on UFO sighting, but also offered: “People are saying they’re seeing UFOs. Do I believe it? Not particularly.”

Years ago, my great-uncle told my mother that the stories concerning the UFO crash were true and bodies were found. He was a head of the U.S. Army hospitals in the Southwest in the late 1940s.
