If questions are shouted at a POTUS who has no answers, DO they have no answers? And will those questions be on the 'final'? LOL!

Q: How much will this cost?
POTUS: Right now, we’re worried about lives, not cost.
Q: Question on DACA, how will you make sure Congress legalizes DACA?
POTUS: [No answer. At this point, POTUS was heading to South Portico.]
Q: Are the storms the result of climate change?
POTUS: [No answer]
Q: What do you mean by revisiting it [DACA] if they don’t?
POTUS: [No answer]
The man that the media is selling as a “new” Trump acted just like all the other previous versions of Trump by denying the role of climate change in the size and frequency of the storms.
Trump and Republicans want Americans to believe that it is a coincidence that Hurricane Harvey was a once in 500 years flood, and Hurricane Irma could end up being a once in a century event.
The reality is that this is the same president whose EPA scrubbed climate change data from their websites. Republicans are selling a fairy tale of science denial to themselves by refusing to see the link between the increased frequency of extreme weather events and climate change.
Trump isn’t some rogue independent president. He remains a man who is driven by taking America back to the past. Trump resists change. He resists science, change, most importantly the reality that extreme weather isn’t a fluke. It is the new dangerous reality for every American.
Make that every scientifically literate, thinking American.
Adlai Stevenson answered a statement about who would vote for him with an answer that would serve today. "Madam, I need a majority". LOL!
