    Trump wins again.

    Don’t tell the morons in the liberal media.

    This is the 2nd-biggest scandal next to “Russian Collusion”.

    Yes, these liberals are pathetic beyond belief.

    So everyone accusing Trump of lying is actually left looking like an idiot with the egg on his or her face?Right? Trump owns liberal media. Those people never get tired of being proven wrong.Time and time again.

    LOL! First your link is from the "liberal media".

    Second, I doubt that you read it. To cite:

    "Either NOAA Leadership truly agrees with what they posted or they were ordered to do it. If it is the former, the statement shows a lack of understanding of how to use probabilistic forecasts in conjunction with other forecast information. Embarrassing. If it is the latter, the statement shows a lack of courage on their part by not supporting the people in the field who are actually doing the work. Heartbreaking,"

    In other words, Trump most likely strongarmed someone at the NOAA to lie about the initial statement, in the process throwing a weatherman under the bus to cover his own behind. PATHETIC!

    I’m sorry to be the one who breaks it to you, but nothing in that NOAA statement makes Trump’s Sunday tweet even close to being true.

    I wonder a) how many of the media sources will issue retractions and/or corrections, b) how many brainwashed Trump haters will read them, and c) how many brainwashed Trump haters will drop this stupid "Sharpie-gate" now that the truth has come out.

    I suspect the answers are a) none, b) none, and c) none.

    The media runs with this crap, their brainwashed Trump-hating followers eat it up, and once it is repeated enough times it becomes a "fact" in their small minds, regardless of whether it was actually true or not. Some of them are still holding on to the Russian collusion dream :roll:

    Next up in breaking news ---- did Trump have ice cream last night, and if so, how many scoops?

    Meanwhile, in the places that actually DID get hit by the hurricane, the residents are left wondering when Trump will show up with their paper towels ...

    Trump needs to be psychologically evaluated.

    Here is what the ignorant don't understand about the picture Trump is holding. That big dotted circle around 8AM in the middle of Florida is the uncertainty range of travel. You will notice on the spaghetti graphs it shows Dorian going through Florida (as the uncertainty range does) or going south of Florida into the Gulf (as the uncertainty range does).

    Again, Trump was right and the haters are just hating due to ignorance.

    The real story is how the TDS crowd projects their desperation by making mountains out of mole hills. Pure pettiness amplified to ridiculous heights.

    One is accurate, one was put out through a man with a sharpies twitter account.

    Yes, who cares about breaking federal law.

    18 U.S. Code 2074 Whoever knowingly issues or publishes any counterfeit weather forecast or warning of weather conditions falsely representing such forecast or warning to have been issued or published by the Weather Bureau, United States Signal Service, or other branch of the Government service, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ninety days, or both.

    Laws are only for stupid liberals, right?

    Oh, I see. That's what everyone is upset about. Makes sense. Seems like the reasonable response is to make memes and talk about what a **** Trump is... when you're upset about the violation of some obscure law.

    Discussing something does not mean anyone is upset.

    And this isn’t a single incident, it is an extreme pattern of narcissism and lying and now potentially forcing government employees to protect the president — again.

    If it was a single incident I would agree with your dismissal and being upset that others are mocking your party leader.
    But it isn’t, so I don’t.

    All laws are apparently now obscure and should be ignored as such, right?
    After all, he is the president — the leader of the free world. Why should laws apply to him?

    What's the backstory as to why the chart was marked on?

    Guess the TDS crowd in here with their threads on this calling Trump a liar will have to crawl back under their rocks and get back on their shrinks couch. This is going to hurt!

    Every time they get all excited thinking we've got him now, the truth comes out and it blows up in their face
