Any sentence about the future is something of a claim, as there can never be 100% certainty about the future. So, although it is a premise in the argument (it supports the main conclusion), it's a claim that we are free to dispute by the reasoning implied by answer D.


OK, so if the premise regards a prediction, we can dispute it in a Weaken the Argument/Evaluate the Argument question. Thanks :D
