Well, the president said a number of things that were simply not based in fact. He wouldn't say that climate change is a clear and present danger.

But that is, of course, the conclusion of scientists all over the country and the world, as well as scientists working for the Trump administration. He also said that he talked to Prince Charles about this for some time, about 90 minutes, and that Prince Charles stressed to him that he was concerned about future generations and climate change. But the president just simply was not convinced.

He also said that Winston Churchill, the former British prime minister, didn't have to deal with the threat of nuclear weapons. That's simply not true. There were Nazis thinking of trying to build a nuclear weapon during the time of Winston Churchill. So that just simply, again, was something else that was just not based in fact.
