    I’ve said it before, but Trump as president basically rules out the existence of aliens on Earth. That fat fuck could not keep his mouth shut if he knew about aliens.

    I have been rewatching the x-files, and the most fantastical part of the show is the idea that the FBI could orchestrate an alien conspiracy. Kash Patel couldn’t organise a piss-up in a brewery, let alone hide aliens from the world.

      It would be really funny if this was Obama messing with Trump. “Why has nobody told ME! What else does Obama know that I don’t?”. I can easily imagine Trump being unnerved by this

        Yeah, I never bought into the"Gov’t is hiding aliens" as in spaceships and little green men per se. I figure there’s some highly secret advanced intelligence gathering that won’t see the light of day for another 30 or 40 years that has caught stuff that can’t be explained yet.

        Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

        Then there’s the time when trump showed pictures to confirm intel at a press conference and it basically confirmed that the US had spy satellites that had highly advanced resolution cameras. So if the US said “Hey, we detected this, but we don’t know wtf it is.”, every intelligence agency would immediately ask themselves: how did the US detect that, how do we protect ourselves from it, and can we also do that.

      If there’s a government agency that knows the truth about it, they are smart enough to make absolutely sure he will not hear about it

      his eyes look like he was taken over by an alien parasite, like the ones in the PARASYTE show, minus the cool fighting and claws or blades.

      “Mr President, there are aliens…”

      “Yes, I know, that’s why we’re building the fence. It’s going to be fhe best, tallest fence anyone’s seen in the history of fences. And Mexico is going to pay for it!”

      “… sigh…”
