President Donald Trump has revealed he was a talented musician as a child and excelled at playing the flute.
In a wide-ranging interview for the Pod Force One podcast, Trump said he had a gift for music from an early age that he could have been a flutist.
“I had flute lessons! This is the first person who’s ever asked me that question,” he told Miranda Devine. “Can you believe it, I could’ve been a flutist. I didn’t particularly like it, it wasn’t for me.”
He also spoke about the importance of music in his life.
“Music has been important. Also, it gives you energy… People that produce good music are really talented, it’s not an easy thing to do,” he said.
He said he liked different types of music: “I like country music a lot. I think Elton John is terrific. I think he’s absolutely terrific. And there’re some people that make it that I don’t think are that talented.”
