POTUS took questions for about 10 min, talking about Tom Price, Puerto Rico, Cuba and more.
He will make decision on Fed chairman in next 3 weeks. Decision on Homeland Security secretary in next month.
Will announce decision on Price tonight.
"He's a very fine man. I certainly don't like the optics. I'm not happy, I can tell you that. I'm not happy."
POTUS shook hands in crowd then boarded Marine One at 3:31 pm en route to Andrews and eventually Bedminster, New Jersey.
Marine One lifted off at 3:35 p.m.
Will send more on gaggle soon.
