  1. Obama was asked on the Brian Taylor show if aliens are real and said, “They Are”. Topic starts at minute 44:02.

  2. weird

    he says theres no conspiracies as the government isnt hiding them or anything but yes they’re real

    so what is he saying ?

  3. wtf ask him to elaborate

    the rumors about trump speech might be true then… unless hes just like “theyre real because the universe is vast it’s impossible they dont”

  4. Are we just going to ignore the fact that after he said they’re real he said he’s never seen them, they aren’t in Area 51, and if the government has them they’re hiding that from the President?

    Him saying “they’re real” means a lot less when you hear the rest of it.

  5. He could just be saying here that he believes they are real in the sense of how most people believe in them that the probability of life existing in a seemingly infinite universe seems to be too high for them not to be real. He doesn’t say we have any proof that they are real though, even outright saying we don’t have any aliens in a secret facility as far as he knows.

  6. lol, I’m not sure how anybody takes this seriously though.

    > Q: Are aliens real?

    > A: Uh, they’re real, but I haven’t seen them. and and and uh they’re not being kept in uh what is it? Area 51. Area 51. There there’s no underground uh facility unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and they they hid it from the president of the United States.

    > Q: What was the first question you wanted answered when you became president?

    >A: Um where are the aliens? Where are the aliens? [laughter]

    He has a good sense of humor.

  7. Full quote: “They’re real but I haven’t seen em and they’re not being kept in Area 51. There’s no underground facility. Unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the President of the United States.”

    Pretty sure he was offering a personal opinion on aliens and not revealing secret information

    I like him but I don’t believe that he has no knowledge of crash retrievals/donations and recovered alien bodies.

  9. “Unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and it’s being hidden from the president…” lmaoo I guess he went out and said it lol

  10. When they talk about aliens, it makes me wonder what misdeeds they are hiding so desperately that they require this level of misdirection. One thing I will say is that aliens did not bloat the national debt, but rampant corruption sure did. Always question authority and the motives of anyone in power as far as everything they say or do regardless of which party affiliation they have.

    He said they’re real but he hasn’t seen them. Calm down everyone. This is just him saying that he believes aliens are real, not that they have been here.

  12. Accidentally-Lucky on

    I’m tired of 2026 already.

    “They’re real”

    Thanks champ. Glad we cleared that up in three words or less.

  13. The interviewer should have asked
    If you haven’t seen them, how do you know that they are real?

    And the “no underground facilities” in such a large military base is a ridiculous claim.

  14. you really think thats how he would announce the existence of aliens ?

    hes just saying they exist in the universe just like other planets and stars exist

    hes not saying the us government found them

  15. CirceInvidiosa678 on

    He say’s they are real but not in area 51, with a really important disclaimer – “unless there is an enormous conspiracy and they have hid it from the president”. He is implying there is a conspiracy.

  16. They way he look over his mug while drinking, just his eyes

    I think he has a way of telling things while joking so he has plausible deniability.

    But say that there is a massive conspiracy…

    Well. There is. He knows there is.
