National Weather Service corrects Trump on Hurricane Dorian: 'Alabama will not see any impacts'
Source: CNBC
Hurricane Dorian will not hit Alabama, said the National Weather Service on Sunday, contradicting comments made by President Trump earlier.
Alabama will NOT see any impacts from , said the NWS office in Birmingham, Alabama in a Twitter post Sunday. We repeat, no impacts from Hurricane will be felt across Alabama. The system will remain too far east.
Earlier, the president had said on Twitter that in addition to Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama, will most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated.
Trump suggested much the same thing about Alabama in comments to reporters on Sunday on the White House South Lawn.

(42,770 posts)has zero to do with Dorian? My guess...people will 1) not know if their state was hit or not and 2) hear trump praise FEMA for helping Alabama and worship him more? Twisted

Unfortunately, to expect Donald Trump to shut his yap and act like a human fucking being for once in his life, even in the face of a meteorological disaster, is utterly futile.

Btw, there are many online quizzes to test your knowledge of state locations. I think most DUers could quickly find them all. Here's but one:

(10,063 posts)Trump cant seem to hold real facts in his head for very long. I suspect thats one reason for his 4th grade vocabulary. He simply uses general words and repeats them over and over. He could be describing almost anything when he says things like Its really bad. His mental state is clearly deteriorating.
