US Presidents in the Dark over UFOs

I would be not at all surprised by this if it were true:

After all the US President (and PM in the UK) seems to be as much a figurehead than a true leader these days. A means for his supporters to gain power.

As for Trump, perhaps somewhat less, but then worries about muslims and walls will keep everyone too busy to think about ufos. And a lot else besides.

1. Trump will deport all the aliens.

2. I think Hillary might be an alien.

There's this mighty fine bridge in New York I'd like you to look at. It's for sale.

Well, after the Iraq invasion and all those lies about WMD, I'm wondering why anyone believes western governments anymore. But even if HC does get told about it, I doubt we will know any more about the subject than we do now. Or anything else not deemed relevant to our lives.

It's called plausible deniability. Am I the only one who's seen Independence Day?

Most of us try to refer to something other than Will Smith movies. Hereafter you shall be known as R2Y2-B25G until such time as that changes.

We had a similar promise from David Cameron here in the UK before he became prime minister. AFAIK, nothing official has been heard since, for reasons unknown. Amongst the UFO-nuts, that silence seems to encourage more febrile speculation about the situation.

I do wonder if actually confirming the situation - assuming there is something to confirm - will actually make the whole question worse not better.

The US President is afraid, because Space Aliens killed Kennedy. Or it could be just the Invisible Lizard Jewish Catholic Freemasons who run everything from their secret base in Svalbard.

Another interesting reason might run along these lines: the leader simply doesn't have the time to read, let alone absorb every aspect of running a country. That's why there are various departments who deal with more detailed aspects of running things and report to him (very like a CEO in a large company). So he has to have information filtered to him on the basis of what is relevant and/or most important. Thus the leader cannot possibly know everything he might need to know. And this is not just about invisible space aliens, it's potentially about much more "down to earth" concerns.

I just wonder who is doing the filtering, and is it always consistent with what needs to be known? After all, you don't need aliens involved to have a conspiracy. Nor time travel, terrorists, telepathy or grassy knolls. I reckon the biggest conspiracy is about money and power. Good luck getting to the bottom of that!
