Trump altered a National Hurricane Center map with a sharpie to falsely extend the official forecast toward Alabama
- Thread starter Saya
- Start date
No, all the lines are real they are just combining a map of most of the models with the Euro and GFS ensembles, from 00z of August 28, which from my knowledge never happens, in the combined image of different models they usually use the consensus model of these models, the Euro consensus is on there as ECMWF, and anything over 120 is highly inaccurate.
Edit: Huh, apparently they do do it, Don't normally see these combined.

It's fake because it's obviously enhanced to colorize the mostly opaque outliers.
Some goon in his admin had to go back to find a random regional orgs map, then shoop it so his boss had a fig leaf to cover up his brain worm disease
The NY Times reported that the Department of Homeland Security was questioned about the map:
I think he does a lot of stuff like this to give his base fuel to make his opponent's look silly. I imagine he knew he would be caught and that people would call him an idiot, but he thought his supporter's would be able to say "Wow, liberals are so ridiculous that they want him impeached over a damn Sharpie line now, what won't they fixate on!?"
I'm guessing he didn't know it was illegal. I think he does a lot of shit like this on autopilot as well. He was head of his own company for his entire career, I'm sure he used to pull shit this like all the time but he wasn't accountable for anything since he was in charge. I can imagine a client accusing him of falsifying something and him bringing "evidence" like this to a meeting back at Trump Tower.
He's definitely been on a roll these past few days. I wonder if the GOP is considering backing someone else in the primary, between this and the satellite image he Tweeted it's getting really hard to argue he's fit for office. Not that that was ever a winning argument but these latest example of incompetence are impressive.

Yeah, I noticed that too. This is the first time I've ever seen a Trump tweet get ratioed. Either this is just too stupid and clearly wrong for people or the tweet doesn't have enough algorithms or key words or whatever to trigger the bots that like his tweets.
Second time this has been referenced in the last few weeks, still funny as shit.How soon until he draws something like this?
A bit off topic but it's amazing how far off the experts were in predicting the path. It's current path is no where close to what they had predicted... it's not even in the bubble of possible paths they show.
The worst part of all of this is that NONE of this fucking matters. He's trying to win an argument he lost a week ago with fake shit while a real storm is really threatening to do some damage.
I want off this ride guys.

How many people have argued back, "YOU LEAVE OUR PRESIDENT ALONE FOR BEING THE ONLY ONE BRAVE ENOUGH TO WARN US ABOUT THE TRUTH ABOUT A HURRICANE COMING TO ALABAMA!"
I assume some people have insisted it's happening, or even has happened because of total loyalty to Trump.
I mean, it's a cult.
I have one family of friends that I know where the mother is still in the religious cult and severed all ties with not just her own husband but her own children when they all left the cult and she refused to go.
20 years later and mother's day is still the hardest time of the year for them.
Once you decide to follow someone and believe everything they say, you're likely never leaving that belief system.
Well yea it's a 5 day cone and we're about 7-8 after that, it was in that cone throughout those 5 days. The last part of the cone was 8pm Tuesday. NHC are really good at this.
Here is the tracks for Dorian

This is the most pathetic moment of his presidency. Not the worst, but absolutely pathetic.
It's so pathetic how this guy can't accept defeat or being wrong or being caught in his stupid attempts to derail the truth.
Which make you wonder how he'll react if he (hopefully) lose the election next year.
"Rigged. RIGGED. The elections were rigged. I demand another count and/or election. Until I'm declared winner because I'm the best president this country ever had. Just ask the people at my rallies."

It is, wonder what will lower the bar next? I just hope someone doesn't get hurt because of it
I agree it's gonna be a fucking shitshow if he loses. Obviously, there's no worry he'll be able to stay in office, but he's gonna go out kicking up a giant shitstorm of hate, lies, and accusations and I won't be in the least bit surprised when people die over it due to some nut supporter(s) going apeshit.
This is amazing. I hope this stays a thing for a while cause it's hilarious.
Why is it so impossible for this person to admit a mistake? No one even cared about this until he himself made a big deal about it. It's not like the hurricane actually followed any of the original projections made by meteorologists so who exactly was expecting Trump to know where it was going to press him on the point?
He's never said sorry, admitted fault, took blame or anything equivalent in.. his.. life. He's not gonna start now.
I'm just surprised he didn't blame the hurricane for being wrong.
It's comical to see the amount of ridicule and abuse he's choosing to get, rather than simply own up to a small mistake last week like any normal person would have done. It's fascinating to think how his "stable genius" mind decides that this outcome is better than admitting a tiny error.
It's pretty clear that he meant to say Bahamas but slipped up and said Alabama. People have slips of the tongues all the time. The need to warp reality to match every error is beyond embarrassing and it should make everyone around him wonder if he's not overcompensating for a mental deficiency.
