Trump should have just shut up or when that was too late just said oops, I was wrong. But Trump's character flaws eliminate that option. He had to go full Trump.
    Don't you Trumpys agree that Trump is making a mess and a big story out of nothing because he can never be wrong about anything?

    The only Dem candidate I find even remotely palatable is Tulsi Gabbard and she has no chance. Trump has his flaws but is a bloody saint compared to that useless shower.

    Have you ever been in a hurricane?
    Look at the wind chart and track it is clear that if it stays on track Alabama will get hit.

    Default White House Pressed Agency to Repudiate Weather Forecasters Who Contradicted Trump

    WASHINGTON — The White House was directly involved in pressing a federal scientific agency to repudiate the weather forecasters who contradicted President Trump’s claim that Hurricane Dorian would probably strike Alabama, according to several people familiar with the events.

    Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, told Wilbur Ross, the commerce secretary, to have the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration publicly disavow the forecasters’ position that Alabama was not at risk. NOAA, which is part of the Commerce Department, issued an unsigned statement last Friday in response, saying that the Birmingham, Ala., office was wrong to dispute the president’s warning.

    Warren actually has spent a lifetime helping people while Trump spent his looting them. Trump is a bad human being and lies as a sport. She has been a spokesman for the middle class for decades. Rightys cannot figure out who is on their side, but I can guarantee you it is not Trump.

    Wow.
    I was talking about the USA. Responding to: "Trump says it is a hoax and he is ending many environmental projects and gutting the agencies."

    When Trump does those things he is violating the Preamble.

    Obama used the EPA to circumvent congress to make laws. It needs to be shut down and started over.

    I would like to see definitive proof of that incorrect statement. Show me some actual accomplishments, not just talking BS.

    Glad to hear that you favor protecting the environment with regulation.

    I am unclear on specifically how you propose that should be done. OK, you want to throw out what we have. What would it be replaced with?

    Disband the EPA and replace it.

    So you want to replace the EPA with the EPA.

    Sounds a little expensive. Why not just fix the one we have?

    I am not certain that the throw-away mentality is helping our nation. I think it hurts the environment.
