So is it hitting Alabama?
Are we really debating Trump on... weather? Seriously?
-
as usual the media overreact, and the result is that his supporters are confirmed in their sense of media persecution.
Pretty sure the media were just trolling him to see how long he'd keep tweeting about something so obviously trivial and ridiculous. Turns out he could go on for an entire week, and then at the end of that week strong-arm the political appointees at NOAA to twist reality for him.
WaPo still trolling him—hard: https://beta.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/here-in-alabama-no-sign-of-trumps-hurricane/2019/09/08/a76ba5e8-d241-11e9-9610-fb56c5522e1c_story.html

So, takeaway from this thread is that... Trump made an assumption that the hurricane would hit Alabama (or was misinformed), media freaked out, Trump was proved (partially) right, either way it was a meaningless mistake, and now we've moved on to the next hysterical overreaction?

No. Trump gave out a misunderstanding of old data, then committed a federal crime to try to cover it up, lied constantly, pressured the weather service into lying to cover up his blunder, and continued stoking the story of his own accord. Media did a good job fact-checking throughout and of course were attacked by him and other liars he employs for doing so.

Uh oh -- turns out Trump personally directed NOAA officials to lie for him.
Once again, the most powerful man in the world is insisting that even the weather be politicized to meet his demented ramblings.

Do they really not see what is glaringly obvious to everyone else in the world, or do they just not care?
