President
Donald Trump was addressing a conference for world leaders at the
United Nations, but he was talking to his political base Monday as he breezed by a major climate change summit and focused instead on religious persecution, an issue that resonates with evangelical supporters who want to see him reelected next year.
The climate summit was a centerpiece of this year's U.N. schedule.
It was not on Trump's schedule but he stopped by for about 15 minutes to observe.
