President Trump is under fire for spreading false information about Hurricane Dorian, claiming it Alabama would ‘most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated.’ The National Weather Service quickly fact checked Trump’s claim, asserting Alabama would ‘NOT see any impacts’ from Dorian. Make It Plain’s Mark Thompson questions Trump’s geography knowledge, saying Trump ‘may actually think Alabama is directly on the East Coast.’ Thompson criticized Trump’s statements, arguing his lack of ‘regard for the irresponsibility of his statements’ would be the cause of ‘a great deal of panic.’

Does Trump Know Where Alabama Is?: False Storm Alert Sparks Panic | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC
Now he has a map, showing the original path. He never thought to check for the update. Really, should he be in charge of this Country?
Nope
·ΠΠ[]×€§· u r out of mind? Like the chosen one, lol
@midnighfairy I’m aware of that video model; I live in Alabama & saw the model on Friday, 8/29. On September 1st, however, Trump sent the tweet that included AL in the path. Surely he had access to _updated_ info? I certainly did.
Edited to insert corrected date.
Where Alabama is? Trump only knows where Kentucky fried chicken and a golf course is.
@SkinnyFinny oh ok I understand, I meant we’re in the gutter because of other world problems that have no direct relation to Trump. But anyways I don’t see what else needs to be said about it.
@Mike Tree I made that clear.
@michael preston you did? Because what you said can indicate many things.
Let this be a lesson. If Trump’s lips are moving or his thumbs tweeting he is lying.
Cindy Yeager He’s actually trying to create a panic where there ISN’T ANY !!
Fux messed his script up.
As if he gave a $♓ℹt.
This Jewish boy is not from Alabama.
@geishasecrets …. yeah you deserve what the democrat politicians fed you. Trump-Russian collusion is your “reality” – a real fantasy made for democrat followers . Your democrat politicians made a success feeding and made themselves squirming of the reality- democrat politicians can never push a russian-related impeachment. Climate change – ride the storm.
@whoRwe02 your comment means nothing. If you have not read the Mulluer Report . And Mulluer is a republican.
Well he just changed the hurricanes path on a map to show it hitting alabama….
If that isn’t the saddest thing you’ve heard.
@Sean Ewing was “exposing” the right choice of word?
@phuc yu you are funny.
@phuc yu if old Joe is falling apart maybe he should ask Trump what super glue he uses.
@phuc yu omg you have daughters.
@Hazel McCloy go look at ol Joe in his latest town hall he may have to bow out due to health concerns
He warned Alabama, but not Georgia? Would Dorian just “fly over” Georgia? He might as well just have warned…..Idaho.
😂😂😂😂
I have relatives in Idaho and they feel secure now. The President is on his way to Idaho to toss paper towels to my relatives.
Someone tell Trump that Alaska is also gonna get hit because it is alphabetically after Alabama
Michael, not just ” fly over” Georgia, Hurricane Dorian just ‘ skip ‘ Georgia and attack Alabama directly.
Lmao
I would love to sit the Moron-in-Chief down with an unlabeled map of the US and have him fill in the state names. My guess is that he might get ten states right, but maybe that is giving him way too much credit.
He might probably rename the States he doesn’t know.
@M John
The president is required to know all the states.
Does he own 10 golf clubs then?
@Pink Rose really – wow. Even I know more than that and I’m European.
@Keith Steward executive privilege.
What a shame with all that swindled/inherited money he can’t even buy himself a map.
What use would a map be to him? tRump can’t concentrate on anything that isn’t about HIM.
geishasecrets But he does have enough to make one.
If he bought a map, what makes you think he could read it or understand it?
Ah, but he has a sharpie – with which he can draw his OWN map. 😉
Well, according to him, he is the greatest expert on everything!
He’s an expert of lies and deceit.
@DOUGLAS HOTCHKISS but you need them to make the sails go round.
How anyone can take him seriously is beyond me. He lies regularly and his followers support it.
Trump’s own cognitive skills are also at a warning of Category 5.
Alan Smithee trump is loosing his marbles at a fast rete 😜🍔🍔🍟🍟
Hurricane Donald which is destroying the US for more than two years now is also destroying Alabama. So the moron isn’t that wrong. He should include all of the states in his dumb tweets.
It’s moving one inch a day over the green belt.
that’s gold!!!!
😂😂👏🏻
Charlie guy nn
What kind of nitwit do we have in the White House if we can even ask the question ‘Does the president know where Alabama is’?
@midnighfairy You mean the cone of uncertainty? That would be Trump’s head. And Alabama was not within the C.O.U. ever. Not at any time.
A very genius nitwit 😊😊😊!!
@j omallj You left out “stable.” 😉
IsThatTrue OrDidYouHearItOnFOX 100% Trump never knows where Alabama is?
He have to rush his public appearance,
Was getting late for his round of golf.
HE SHARPIED A CIRCLE AROUND ALABAMA ON THE OFFICIAL MAP LMFAO
Moron
Are there any schools, colleges, or universities out there willing to admit they gave trump a diploma?
They didn’t *give* it. They *sold* it. It was bought and paid for by his daddy.
And he had the nerve to ask for Obamas birth certificate😬
And this is NOT the FIRST of his FOOL statements ….nor will be the LAST !!!
Trump is lazy and uninformed.
But he is *definitely* losing his marbles.
@Truth Seeker economy is about to tank. Buckle up buttercup.
@Truth Seeker Listen, you’re obviously not a very intelligent person, so I’ll leave this with you. You can disLIKE Obama ALL you want, but what you cannot do is deny his success. People like you, who are too blind or stupid or BOTH to see what’s going on in our country is frightening. I can tell you this, I served my country and put COUNTRY first and would NEVER get in “bed” with the Russians OR put party over COUNTRY.
@Truth Seeker Looks like you have to keep seeking. You bought Trump’s BS hook line an sinker.
Trump later fired everyone at the national weather service for correcting him and making him look bad.😄
All National Weather service employees were replaced with McDonald’s cashiers.
QBaby tRump makes himself look bad. He does’t need any help. Loser
No one has to make him look bad his does that all by himself. 🥴
Trump says weather is fake news.
@Monday Morning Only fake when he broadcasts it!!!!
Worst POTUS ever!!!!!! Watch him claim mental illness ( like his dad ) when the hammer finally comes down on the lying Trumpster!
