Donald Trump claims that Barack Obama acted improperly by allegedly sharing classified information with Americans when he said that aliens exist.
Podcast host Brian Tyler Cohen asked the former president if extraterrestrials were real in an episode that aired January 14.
‘They’re real, but I haven’t seen them,’ Obama replied. He joked that they are not being kept at Area 51, as far as he knows.
The clip went so viral and sparked so much speculation that the former president had to post a clarification the following day, where he explicitly stated: ‘I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!’
Rather, he was sharing his personal belief that ‘the universe is so vast that the odds are good there’s life out there.’
But Trump said on Thursday, on his way to Georgia, that Obama was ‘not supposed’ to be sharing this ‘classified information.’
‘I don’t know if they’re real or not,’ Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One when asked by Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy about aliens.
‘I can tell you he gave classified information. He made a big mistake,’ the president added.
