    When he showed that map there was no possibility the storm was going in to Alabama. It was done to cover up his dumbass tweet on September 1. A normal human being would just say opps my bad and move on but not our president he’s got a compound it with a dumbass lie.

    In the future hopefully the president just sticks to doing his ****ing job and not the meteorologist job!

    issue is he can’t admit to a mistake. A simple mistake with very little impact. Another issue as his deep level supporters absolutely refused to point out when he does make a simple mistake. It is without a doubt 100% fact that when he was giving his press conference he showed a map with a hand-drawn extension to the cone of uncertainty that did not exist. It’s also a simple fact that on September 1 when he made history there was no concern the Alabama was gonna be hit by Dorian!

    Somebody, and I don’t know if it was the president, decided hey let’s draw an extension here with this black ****ing marker so we don’t look stupid, except now they look extra stupid!

    Personally......... I am really into the idea that very powerful spiritual beings
    are in charge of hurricanes....and I do believe that hurricanes can be spoken to
    WITH AUTHORITY as we have recorded done by a Rabbi whose teachings may have been
    shockingly like that of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov..... or Rabbi Alon Anava... .but if the
    information on that comes out Christianity will be divided worse than occurred during the
    time of Martin Luther.......... (who incidentally was virulently anti-Semitic as you can see by
    doing a search for the article "The Jews and their Lies" by Martin Luther).

    Mark 4:39 "And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm."

    There is no synopsis of the information that to my thinking connects the historical Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus with the
    teachings of both Rabbi Nachman of Breslov..... his grandfather the Baal Shem Tov.......
    and Rabbi Alon Anava.

    The actual historical Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus may have done teachings almost nothing like the teachings of the
    several hundred advisors to President Trump from the USA Christian community but...........
    ........ President TRump is indeed wise to have them on his side.

    Ms. Kat Kerr is an example of a Christian with the authority to alter the course of hurricanes.

    There's no logic there.... one of the prime elements of movements like Trumps is the fear and attempted suppression and derision of the well educated... it's the only way those movements thrive long term, which is why it's likely a 4 year blip in the US...

    Previous charts no longer matter because the charts get more precise over time. There are people who know quite a bit about what a hurricane can do and they corrected Trump's claims. That's when he through his little infant tantrum that resulted in this. Remember how people used to mail tea bags to Obama? Maybe it is time to start mailing pacifiers to Trump.

    Trump fiddles while Rome burns. Paper towels and altered maps and golf - Trump defines how Presidents should handle natural disasters.

    It appears the only ones that are having an infantile tantrum are the perpetually outraged lefties.

    This is the equivalent of a student getting a "D" on a school paper, and then writing over it and turning it into a "B" in an attempt to fool his parents. Apparently such remedial, school grade tactics fool his base based on the responses in this thread.

    Bottom line. Did Trump stand in front of the country with an altered map? Yes or no.

    Of NOAA made the chart. No no no and no. That chart did not make it look like it was going to "hit" Fl, GA, Alabam, and Miss it was a cone of possibilities. Think of the geography!! Ok! For a hurricane to hit FL and cut across FL and continue to GA which is north of FL and East of both Alabama and Miss, and then perform a 90* turn to the West cut accross land to get to Alabama and keep cutting across Alabama land and hit Mississippi Is absurd. Again that map showed possibilities it did not projection of a hit. In order for a storm to do what Trump claimed and now what you claim the storm would have to be at least 3 times bigger than Dorian and a CATEGORY 9 or 19.

    You are just trying to make excuses and cover up for a foolish thing or a stupid asinine mistake Trump made. Hey suck it up and admit The Trump FUBARED.

    The only one with blinders are the ones who who can't point to Alabama on a map.

    Well 1st of all, it is unprofessional to use a sharpie to identify a map while holding a national presentation, then even worse, using a recently altered graph to try to cover up a gaffe. Trump doesn't know how to simply walk away.

    It's perpetual comedy. The challenge of the progressive left is to find as many things to be outraged about as possible every day. There must be a score keeper somewhere.
