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."
 
Trump insists Meteorologists are wrong and that Alabama could have been hit by Dorian. LMAO

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.

Never far enough west to hit Alabama

It's weird how often he needs to be the only one who experiences things, or be the first one to experience, or be the first one to introduce information to people.

Hey, did you know Abraham Lincoln was a Republican? Not a lot of people knew that!

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

With continued insistence that Alabama could have been hit by Dorian, Trump, in a press conference held up further "proof" he was right, in the form of a blown up picture of Dorian's original path...altered with a sharpie marker to include Alabama.

When asked if he had altered it with a marker, he replied, "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know."

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

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...

The guy is a complete buffoon and rather than swallow a bit of pride and say "I was mistaken" he will double down on stupidity and still insist he is right. A personality disorder like that is a dangerous man to have in the position he holds, but his lemmings soak it up and double down on stupid with him.

I agree about the start of this, if he was wrong or mistaken, why cant he just say so. Its very weird how often he just cant admit he did something wrong...

It's just not in his dna and why he is a dangerous person. He reneges on deals, he lies constantly, he personally attacks anyone who disagrees with him and to top it off, the "Art of the Deal" master doesn't know how to negotiate without threatening. How anyone can think this clown is good for our country is beyond me. I am 65 years old and have never been this bothered by a sitting president as I normally avoid politics, but in this case, this is for my kids and grandkids and future generations.

Let me repeat myself, it's as if the Three Stooges were running the White House.
