"I want them to think whatever they think," he replied, before adding that he had "one really brief meeting on it."

"People are saying they're seeing UFOs. Do I believe it? Not particularly."Stephanopoulos followed up by asking if Trump would know if the US had any definitive evidence of extraterrestrials, however the President didn't seem to want to answer the question directly.

"I think our great pilots would know and some of them really see things that are a little bit different than in the past, so we're gonna see, but we'll watch it," he said.

He followed up by noting that Stephanopoulos would be "the first to know" if something came up.
