Did Ronald Reagan secretly believe in an alien invasion that could unite the world? In this deep dive into a wild 1988 tabloid exposé from UFO Universe magazine, we uncover President Reagan's shocking "obsession" with extra terrestrials. From his repeated off-the-cuff remarks about how an alien threat from outer space would erase global differences... to private chats with Gorbachev where he allegedly floated joint defence against ET invaders... this article painted Reagan as the first U.S. President to openly ponder humanity facing a common cosmic enemy. Key highlights from the piece: Reagan's 1985 Fallston High School speech: "How easily his task and mine might be... if suddenly there was a threat to this world from some other species from another planet."
The famous 1987 UN General Assembly line: "I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world."
Rumour's of White House astrology, Spielberg dinners after E.T., and whispers of classified UFO knowledge.
Was this just quirky Reagan eccentricity, a clever Cold War metaphor, or something deeper? Dive into the sensational (and surprisingly prescient) 1980s UFO lore that still sparks debate today.
