"Scientists think dark energy is a form of repulsive gravity that now dominates the universe, although they have no clear picture of what it actually is."

Oh come on!!! ATLEAST give him 4 years to prove himself. He's not even in office yet and these people won't even give him a chance. How can you expect to completely understand dark energy? This is all new to everyone. I say give it time. Time will tell
