OT Hurricane Dorian

No, we have to call it the first category 5 hurricane that Trump has seen in the last four category 5 hurricanes that he's seen in his Presidency.

 

Legit funny.

 

I thought trump was suppose to have such a great memory and a big brain yet he can't remember he had discussed he had never heard of a cat 5 hurricane the last few years. The guy is dumb as a rock.

"TRUMP: “I’m not sure that I’ve ever even heard of a category 5. I knew it existed and I’ve seen some category 4′s. You don’t even see them that much. But a category 5 is something that I don’t know that I’ve ever even heard the term other than I know it’s there.” — remarks Sunday at FEMA headquarters."

" THE FACTS: In his third hurricane season as president, Trump has had plenty of exposure to category 5 storms.

He made the same claim two years ago, saying he wasn’t aware of category 5 storms until Hurricane Irma. “In Florida, you got hit with the strongest winds ever recorded. It actually hit the Keys with a_it was a Category 5. I never even knew a Category 5 existed,” Trump said in September 2017.

Since then, he’s repeatedly marveled about the size of the storms — and by extension, his administration’s response to it — including category 5 hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017, Michael in 2018 and now Dorian.

Having four category 5 hurricanes in three years is actually more than any other president in history. George W. Bush had eight such hurricanes in eight years. Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan only had one during their two terms in office, while George H.W. Bush had two in four years and Carter had three in four years."

 

I had a busy freaking weekend and like 99% of my news came from here, but I thought on like Thursday morning (maybe Friday?), I saw something on the weather channel while I was getting ready for work that said they werent sure if Dorian would trek North or West because of the high pressure systems in play.

Im not defending what Trump said or his golfing or whatever and Im certainly not a meteorologist but I thought there was a chance it could turn west.

 

National Weather Service in Birmingham came out and stated that there was never any chance of Dorian impacting Alabama. They did this apparently to counteract what Trump said.

Abe Lincoln is rolling over in his grave seeing how his republican party is today.

 

ah interesting, thanks.

 

Pretty dumb of Trump to suggest this. However, in the big scheme of things who gives a shit?

 

Obviously Trump. It's so weird.

 

So inexplicably...the more I think about the weirder it gets. With a Sharpie?!? If Trump was my father, I'd already have had him assessed for stroke or dementia or lead poisoning...
