President Donald Trump revealed he has a musical side that could have led him away from a life of politics and real estate a towards playing the Flute.
According to a report on Mediaite, Trump told Miranda Devine on the āPod Force Oneā podcast that he was told he was ābrilliant at musicā after he took an aptitude test at age 11 or 12.
The test revealed his natural ability in music, much to the chagrin of his father, Fred Trump.
āThey came up to my father, they said, āyour son is brilliant at music. He can be an incredible musician.ā This is not what my father wanted to hear. You know, this was not the greatest thing ever,ā Trump said.
The president continued he has an āearā for music.
He then revealed the Flute was his instrument of choice ā at least for a moment.
āI played for very short periods of time, the Flute. Can you believe that? I had Flute lessons. Youāre the first person thatās ever asked me that crazy question,ā Trump said. āCan you believe it? I could have been a flutist. And I didnāt particularly like it. It wasnāt for me.ā
When Devine suggested Trump could still play the woodwind instrument, Trump said it was not likely.
āI doubt it,ā Trump said. āI donāt think so.ā
