Trump dodges science questions

[hazlnut]

Well, the man does NOT read. Anything.

He knows nothing.

He's not so much dodging these questions, he doesn't understand the words in the question.

Coalition Led By ScienceDebate.org Sent 20 Questions To Presidential Candidates. The nonprofit ScienceDebate.org organized a coalition of 56 prominent scientific organizations, representing more than 10 million scientists and engineers, that compiled a list of 20 questions for the presidential candidates on science-related topics. ScienceDebate.org chair Shawn Otto said the topics “have at least as profound an impact on voters' lives as those more frequently covered by journalists, including candidates' views on economic policy, foreign policy, and faith and values.” The group conducted a poll, which found that 87 percent of Americans “say it is important that candidates for President and Congress have a basic understanding of the science informing public policy issues.” Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, Republican nominee Donald Trump, and Green Party nominee Jill Stein each provided responses to the questionnaire, which were made public on September 13 (Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson has yet to respond).

By conspiracy web sites do you mean non-settled science sites?

Obama doesn't even know how many states we have rounded to the nearest ten. All Trump needs to know is that he can shave $2.5B out of the budget annually by cancelling all climate change "research"

Was one of the science questions about treating asthma with a breathalyzer

 

[Iceweasel]

So it was a political hit job and not an honest inquiry. It's to be expected from leftists.

So, we can assume you're a settled science believer?

Candidates need to vetted on all of this.

And Trump knows nothing.

Hillary is too dumb to manage her email, even with the help of multiple government agencies top that.

 

[ShaklesOfBigGov]

Candidates need to vetted on all of this.

And Trump knows nothing.

Translation: Trump needs to understand and follow the liberal perceptive view of science.
