    Just admit it, you lefties were owned many times in this thread.

    Here, I'll put it in simpleton terms.

    Trump was presented with a map that was created by the meteorologist from the NOAA that predicted the path of the hurricane. Anyone with half a brain would look at that map and conclude from its predicted trajectory that the hurricane would hit Florida first and then continue on to the Gulf of Mexico and not up the coast to the Carolina's.

    Try to keep up.

    Why are they so invested in such a denial?

    In both maps Dorian is headed toward Alabama, no ?? It follows from the map that Dorian would be into Alabama by 8am Wednesday.

    Do you notice the predicted trajectory of the hurricane that was graphed by meteorologists from the NOAA and how that trajectory was headed toward the Gulf of Mexico and not up the coast to the Carolina's like it eventually did????

    Because their hate for Trump is more important than the facts.

    This observation eludes those who are obsessed by Trump.

    This thread proves that left-wingers don't trust scientist and their predictions and models.

    So, why do left-wingers trust climate scientists predictions and models so much?

    That’s what faith based thinking does to people. Only the scientists of truth and goodness can be trusted.

    I save a lot of aggravation by not trying to explain a gd thing to morons. Every once in a while one of their posts sneaks past my "ignorance" button and cause me to grasp. Trumpites would justify their god's decision to barbecue live human infants in the Rose Garden as a new dietary discovery to prevent hemorrhoids.

    On Wednesday night, apparently stung by the criticism, Trump tweeted another hurricane map. This one showed numerous, multicoloured lines projecting the path of Dorian. Some of the lines reach into Alabama. The map has a “South Florida Water Management District” logo in the bottom corner.

    The president wrote: “This was the originally projected path of the Hurricane in its early stages. As you can see, almost all models predicted it to go through Florida also hitting Georgia and Alabama. I accept the Fake News apologies!”

    But the map is dated 28 August at 08.06 EDT. Trump sent his tweet about Alabama on 1 September, by which time forecasts made clear it was not in danger.

    The map also clearly carries the disclaimer: “NHC advisories and county emergency statements supersede this product. This graphic should complement, not replace, NHC discussions.”

    Like you he just searched for something to cover his screwup.

    You mean like observing the prediction of Dorian’s early on ?? You are actually claiming that you are incapable of making a Wednesday extrapolation of a four day storm path ending on Tuesday ??

    Come’on man. You can do it.

    You omitted option 4.

    D. Who the hell tunes into the Oval Office for weather predictions? We have The Weather Channel for that.

    It's hard to believe that there is 100 replies to this thread. It's almost like AOC discovering a garbage disposal for the first time.

    So what ??? You actually spent all this time explaining “Dorian WednesdayGate”. Too funny.

    When did Trump see the map ???

    Then why did he include the Carolinas in his tweet?

    upload_2019-9-4_20-2-56.png

    Maybe he can draw some more lines on his map. :)

    And so once again, Trump spends more time defending his fragile ego than being concerned with the people actually IN the path of the hurricane ... and Trump FanBoys waste their time defending him.

    WTF. Just plain old WTF. It's like stupid with a side order of stupid.

    Since everyone is infatuated with catastrophic event predictions I'll give you guys a 10 year prediction for Phoenix.

    No hurricanes
    No tornados
    No blizzards
    No forest fires
    No earthquakes
    No floods
    No droughts
    No s h i t
