First, much of what the president says publicly will be heavily screened. It’s likely a team of advisors will focus on "training" the new president to maintain a calculated and benign tone. It may reveal an extra thick layer of insulation — not normally used by any past president. As a result, squeaking something like this out will likely pass heavier screening than normal.
Second, curiosity in this subject — to the level of intent, are typical of a personal inclination towards: science, a sensitivity/interest in humans as a species, technology, and a drive for absolute truth in the origins of human life. To this, it could be said the president might not care enough to look into it, and were this so, still must pass the extra heavy filters around him.
Each new president has a break-in phase. During this phase, the vigour and intent they go in with, is quickly calmed by the realization of many things that simply cannot be known outside the position — like winning the position of class president, only to find out you can’t change the length or recess to 30 minutes — only these are far deeper revelations changing their demeanour.
