Trump calls military UFO footage ‘a hell of a video’
President Trump is among the Americans amazed by the out-of-this-world goings-on in a trio of videos recently released by the military showing apparent unidentified flying objects.
“I just wonder if it’s real,” the president lightheartedly told Reuters during a White House interview. “That’s a hell of a video.”
The videos, one taken in 2004 and two in 2015, were released after federal officials determined the footage “does not reveal any sensitive capabilities or systems,” and “does not impinge on any subsequent investigations,” the department said in a statement
One of the videos — which were initially publicized in 2017 and 2018 — shows a dark circular object flying far in front of a military jet.
A second, identified as GOFAST.wmv, shows a small object racing over land at astonishing speed.
The third, GIMBAL.wmv, shows a circular object first speeding, then seeming to slow and come closer to the pilot’s camera.
All of the videos are well-known to UFO buffs, but some Americans were blase about them, saying they were more worried about the coronavirus pandemic as the US death toll topped 60,000.
“At this point, Aliens taking control of the world doesn’t seem that bad,” Caroline Jea tweeted.
