Trump 'orders Coast Guard Admiral' to publicly defend his false Alabama hurricane claims

Could be his new strategy. Keep America focused on his minor stupidities instead of his massive fails.

 

Still obsessed with a map you don’t know how to read?

 

Why would the Trump hating media do that?

 

Maybe I didn’t make myself clear. That might be Trump’s new strategy.

 

You sir are one of those who either fail to understand that map or are having fantasies about what that map means. You are also failing to take into consideration of the date/time that map was issued vs when ODL made his prediction that Alabama would get hit worse than " previously thought". Or you know what the map means and are just obstructing the truth for ODL.

 

"I'm the official weather guy. Trump and his Sharpie was right,
and everybody else was wrong."


"I'm FEMA's official 'Fix everything after a hurricane' guy.
Devastated Alabama now is proof that everything was fixed real fast."
​

As with just about everything, TRUMP knows more about hurricanes than anybody.

"I think nobody knows more about campaign finance than I do, because I'm the biggest contributor."
"I know more about people who get ratings than anyone."
"I know more about ISIS than the generals do."
"I understand social media. I understand the power of Twitter. I understand the power of Facebook
maybe better than almost anybody, based on my results, right?"
"I know more about courts than any human being on Earth."
"[W]ho knows more about lawsuits than I do? I'm the king."
"I understand politicians better than anybody."
"[N]obody knows the system better than me. I know the H1B. I know the H2B. ...
"Nobody else on this dais knows how to change it like I do, believe me."
"Nobody knows more about trade than me."
"Nobody knows the system better than I do."
"I know more about renewables than any human being on Earth."
"I think nobody knows more about taxes than I do, maybe in the history of the world."
"I’m the king of debt. I’m great with debt. Nobody knows debt better than me."
"I understand money better than anybody."
"[L]ook, as a builder, nobody in the history of this country has ever known so much about infrastructure as Donald Trump."
"I know more about Cory than he knows about himself."
Trump said that Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he was endorsing him for president because "you know more about this stuff than anybody!"
"I think I know more about the other side than almost anybody."
"Nobody knows more about construction than I do."
"I think I know about it better than [the Federal Reserve]."
"Technology — nobody knows more about technology than me."
"I know more about drones than anybody. I know about every form of safety that you can have."
"Having a drone fly overhead — and I think nobody knows much more about technology, this type of technology certainly, than I do."

And drawing with a Sharpie is the most important part of being a meteorologist!​

"It has been reported" is several levels below " an anonymous source " and is a completely meaningless statement.
As for the leftist media's misuse and deceit of late with anonymous sources that worth a thread of its own

 

Are they not a news outlet, and what gives them so much better credentials.

 

Calling it ironic is the farthest from a smear, and what gives that news outlet that much more acceptance.

 

You made yourself clear, you think Trump is making the lefties drool all over themselves due to their own ignorance of how to read the map he presented.

 

There is literally no difference. If citing anonymous sources is more credible than saying “it has been reported,” why wouldn’t someone who is making up a story cite to made-up anonymous sources instead of saying “it has been reported”? You’re splitting hairs to excuse your dumb comment. Just accept that your position is entirely influenced by your political leanings.

 

Huge difference between the two. Anonymous source and hopefully sources as good journalism requires more than one source and at least implies there is an actual person with knowledge of an event. "It has been reported" has no foundational meaning whatsoever and could mean anything you want it to mean. It could very well mean some other article made the claim in question which could be nothing but an opinion piece so yeah it's been reported. LOL

 

Do you mean like this?

Exactly like that. Journalists using the language of a Twitter comment is not journalism. Thank you

 

Virtually everyone knows that the MSM is untrustworthy.

"After Davis publicly backtracked from the claims, the New York Post and the Washington Post outed him as their confirming source and published apologies from Davis, a lawyer and communications expert who became well known for his work for Bill Clinton. The original CNN story — broadcast during Chris Cuomo’s prime-time show and written by Jim Sciutto, Marshall Cohen, and Watergate reporting legend Carl Bernstein — said that Davis had “declined to comment.” His involvement in the story, on so-called “background,” has not been previously reported."

Every news network had had their occasional FUBAR. FOX included. At least CNN admitted it's FUBAR.

 

that is a Presidential statement, it's sad that some people hold a reporter to such higher standards than a President

 

For all objective Americans Trump will always be viewed as a stable genius when compared to meteorologists.

Which is why NOAA "blinked".

"On Friday, the computer models were in agreement on a landfall somewhere along Florida’s east coast early next week. Overnight, though, as Dorian continued its rapid intensification, the models blinked. Some of them still showed a Florida landfall, but the majority shifted their forecast tracks to the east."

The IBD is a specialized business investor news source. It is not a part of the MSM.

The IBD and the LAT/USC Daybreaker tracking poll were the most accurate polls during the last election cycle.

 

Was there snowflakes in the forecast?

 

Well that specialized news source seems to out of its way to discuss politics.

 

Here is a link to the actual official NHC hurricane forecast for Dorian. Only a few square miles of Alabama were in the 5-day cone. It would be silly to say Alabama was ever in danger of being hit by the hurricane.

The graphic on August 30 at 5 pm EDT through August 31 at 5 am shows this. The whole tropical storm force wind bull is just a way that the CG admiral can say something to defend Trump without lying.

 

Not higher but different. Journalists and journalism has to adhere to certain standards when informing America or they lose credibility. They are supposed to relate facts not innuendo. A president making a statement on Twitter is expressing his opinion, what he believes and what he thinks.

 

Yes, but that's not how the spaghetti models are used. The real U.S. government forecast by NOAA's NHC never showed Alabama (other than a few square miles in the far SE corner) being in the forecast of the 5-day cone (much less the 3-day cone). Here's a link to the actual forecast. The graphic on August 30 at 5 pm EDT through August 31 at 5 am shows this. Those are the only time that Alabama is at all forecast to be in danger.
