    Well, if a fake map made by a sharpie doesn't do the trick, then find someone to lie for you. And people still think this clown is a good president.

    Well, to me, whether he's good or bad, he's still my president. Comparatively speaking, I didn't agree with most of what Obama did, nor his policies as a whole - certainly didn't vote for him. Yet, he was still president and I supported him as such. All that said, I'll continue to pray for Trump, his staff, administration, and all of our elected officials - Democratic or Republican - across this nation.

    What does all of your hate accomplish, I mean, really?

    There is no comparison between trump and Obama. One has class while the current one is an ass

    For number of years I was part of a storm team that performed several task including getting there before they hit and helping out afterwards.
    One of my responsibilities was also helping with logistics as far as getting truck loads of equipment / supplies to States that could be effected both direct hits and broader areas.
    We would stage semis in advance of these storms and they could move elsewhere in quick fashion.
    Based on my experience its not unrealistic at all the Bama and Georgia were potentially targeted for peripheral damage. That Gulf coast of Bama is easily effected by a direct hit of florida.
    I just don't understand why people make such huge deal out of this including Trump, but for those that participate in the rhetoric don't understand the preparedness that goes into these storms.

    People don’t care that he included Alabama. They care that once he was proven wrong and that Alabama was safe he dug his heels in and refused to change course. He’s a child. It’s a “huge deal” in that it is hilarious to see this grown man act like a 4th grader

    I know he overreacts and is a typical New York (in your face) whiner. And if the dem's don't blow it they should easily unseat him?
    The media loves to rile people up just like a particular station did when Obama didnt follow through on him red line, etc.
    Regardless of the crazy channels you tune to its all propaganda for one side or the other. And whats scary people or going to the Alter of partisan BS politics.

    I get that but before he entered the picture all networks were biased as hell on way or the other. I have watched less and less of cnn, msnbc and hardly any fox. It will be the same once Trump is gone.

    He came into the arena slinging insults at the media...it was his smokescreen from the truth and he's made it pretty much an insult fest since elected as well...he painted himself into the corner he's in. Not a popular man let alone president...people only take so much shit before they counter the guy...problem is most of his battlefield is populated with polarized, shallow partisan loud folks who don't really know what the fuck is going on....when the intellectuals and the brightest minds of the nation weigh in...he tends to put them in the same battlefield as the political sheeple and that's a mistake on his part big time.
