    You should watch the news - the hurricane is now north.

    Yeah.

    Which shuts down all the ports along the coast.

    You should try logic.

    Both Canadian and British aid has already been organized. And they aren't 'the greatest nation in the world'.

    Obama wasn't informed that Adm. McRaven had issued the order to conduct "Operation Neptune Spear" untill the MH-60's had entered Pakistani air space.

    Re: the White House situation room, Obama is still wearing his golf shoes and he's not sitting in the CnC seat but Air Force Brigadier General Marshall B. “Brad” Webb.

    What the photo reveals:
    Only two people in the situation room actually know what the **** is going on, Brig Gen. Webb and Sec of Def Robert Gates.

    Everyone else are clueless what is taking place.
    Especially President Obama, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden.

    He stayed to be near when it hit, it had not hit when he played. This isn’t like when ISIS heheaded an American journalist and Obama simply went golfing when the video was released.

    How would you know any of that? Were you there? Can you prove what Obama did or did not know, and when he knew?

    First of all unlike Obama, I know how the military chain of command works.

    I also read Robert Gates book, "Duty."

    I also watched President Obama on television on that Sunday evening taking credit for killing Bin Laden even before any Navy SEAL was debriefed.

    (Anyone who has ever been in combat knows about debriefings and "After Action Reports."

    By ignoring the U.S. military chain of command, President Obama politicized the killing of Osama bin Laden.

    As we would learn days later after the "After Action Report" was written up and made its way up the chain of command, Obama got it wrong on that Sunday evening, it didn't happen the way Obama said it did.

    FYI:
    Operation Neptune Spear was not a textbook operation but F.U.B.A.R.

    MH-60 crashes inside the compound walls.
    Navy SEAL's did not enter the building from the roof but from ground level and even entered the building using a door.
    The wreckage of the MH-60 helicopter was not properly destroyed and it's technology ended up in Communist China.
    Obama ordered that Osama bin Laden be given a proper Islamic funeral.

    Where are they? I just did a search for Canada and the only mention of Canada is a small private group. How about a link to your assertion. And only the USA can lead even when it is not their country or part of their Commonwealth? How much aid did the UK send to Puerto Rico?

    Trump is infinitely better than Obama could have imagined himself to be! The states are responsible for preparing and FEMA is in contact with Trump. Nature is nature and there is nothing you can do about it until it happens....do YOU see YOUR hypocrisy?

    He is supposed to be on hand to reassure the American people that their government is aware, ready, and able to help. He is supposed to instill that attitude within his entire staff and the staff of all involved agencies. He is supposed to lead, and to take it seriously.

    He is not supposed to be out playing golf while his fellow Americans are boarding up their homes and business, filling and placing sandbags to ward off the worst of the inevitable flooding from the storm surge. He is not supposed to present the public with days-old NWS charts marked with sharpies in a silly and dagerous effort to cover up a gaffe about Alabama being in the storm's path, likely panicking many of that state's residents unneccessarily. He is not supposed to be completely ignorant about hurricanes.

    I could go on, but it's quite likely I'm spitting into a Cat 5 hurricane wind where his base is concerned. Trumpsters will deflect and illogically excuse anything he says or does. It's pathetic.

    I don't care what he said during his campaign I didn't vote for him. The fact is when a hurricane develops the Executive Branch of the federal government does not hunker down in the situation room and direct events.

    Looks like Trump is on safe grounds with hurricane Dorian, it looks like George W. Bush is responsible for this hurricane.

    The guy is a boor and an embarrassment, but who cares if he is golfing. He is a blowhard and full of hot air but still not enough to change the course of a storm.

    Alabama was in several of the storms projected paths. The rest of this is just TDS.

    No, it was not. An Atlantic-based hurricane, even a Cat 5, would not retain hurricane strenghth after crossing the state of Florida into the Gulf. At most, it would be broken up into a very scattered tropical storm, or multiple tropical storms, heading in various directions.

    Trump is ignorant about hurricanes. They aren't something that he, personally, has ever had to worry about. It was careless on his part to double down on a simple gaffe and consequencially get the residents of Alabama worried. In fact, I've heard that giving or promoting a false weather report is against the law, but as with all things legal or ethical, Trump would have no clue about that, the sycophants that he surrounds himself with would have no clue about that, and his base won't give a damn, and will try to make excuses just as you are doing.

    Sure, except for all the models showing it could.

    I mean other than that, sure.

    I see that, as usual, you could not refute one word of the post of mine you quoted.

    But keep on with the theme of "Trump is god because he can do no wrong"....it's amusing...

    There was nothing to refute I don't care what he said didn't like a lot of things he said then and posted about things I didn't like that he said. One reason I didn't vote for him. BUT HE WON. Something I could accept and get over unlike you and the Dems and the left.

    The fact is when a hurricane develops the Executive Branch of the federal government does not hunker down in the situation room and direct events.

    Who do you think is in charge when a hurricane is imminent and after it strikes?
