Much will likely be made of the claims Stratton makes in the book and his revelation that he has been secretly advising the Trump Administration on Disclosure, alongside talk show host Dr. Phil McGraw and rock star Tom DeLonge. He claims to have seen a space alien looking in his bedroom window after he awoke from sleep at 4 A.M. one morning in 2014. He alleges that he saw a screen grab from a video with a clear image of a triangular flying craft whose size he could not determine because the video contained no reference points. Someone told him Roswell was real! Such claims sound dramatic, but Stratton provides exactly no evidence for them, and at times he seems almost intentionally closed to considering that he himself might be mistaken. For instance, seeing space aliens in the middle of the night is a well-documented result of waking dreams (I've had the same experience, but never considered it a supernatural occurrence), and for all we know the triangle might have been a small drone. At one point, Stratton says he considered that he might have been "played" by people lying about UFOs, but he rejected the possibility for the same reason as every other ufologist: "Trust me, bro." Like most UFO Disclosure advocates, Stratton could not separate the person from the claim and therefore believed that if he liked and trusted someone, that person's claims must be true. The idea that someone might genuinely believe something untrue does not cross his mind.
