They probably refer to this era of the childish antics, where America was politically torn in half n both sides insulted each other, elected fools, n stuck their fingers into their ears n said la la la not listening
Phyllisha Hart Of course it should be against the law. Freaking people out, causing unnecessary suffering and perhaps not informing people who are in actual danger...
@@phyllishahart6111 no it is NOT a crazy law, emergency services, FEMA, states, etc NEED ACCURATE hurricane & storm reporting, so as to alert the public when to evacuate or take action to protect them selves. when cretins like the orange asshole in the white house spout FAKE WEATHER then he is endangering peoples LIVES.
“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” _-Issac Asimov_
Matt White I’m pretty sure there’s a famous book called 1984 that explores the issues regarding a state forcing its citizens to recite falsehoods and actively punishing those who speak the truth..... hmmmm 🤔
I mean NOAA, a primarily science-oriented agency, is literally under the purview of resident Commerce weasel-- excuse me, "secretary" Ross because of Nixon not liking someone's opinion of the Vietnam War becoming public. Not that being under the Dept. of the Interior or its own Dept. in this administration would make a difference, but in case anyone didn't know and was wondering why Wilbur Fucking Ross has any say in NOAA... It's thanks to the ego of the previous most notorious Crook-In-Chief being called out on his mistakes. The man who did so was Wally Hickel, a man Nixon made the mistake of hiring as Interior Secretary, apparently not realizing he actually had a beating human heart and a conscience when he appointed him.
Why? Cause nothing ever has consequences with him. Well except standing up to defend the constitution and doing your bloody job, that has the consequence of getting the boot by the polemist in chief. Nothing ever has consequences FOR Trump. Even the disgraceful Senate handling of the Impeachment did INCREASE his poll numbers, FFS.
he stresses caution during a cat 5 hurriflurrie and just an inch of precaution. well im sure if he tried cutting flights from areas contaminated with virulent airborne disease you would imediatly support the TRumps decision, and even if you didnt you wouldnt blame him for not wanting to create a sense of urgency that could lead to panic if he chose to respect DNC request to not stop a chinese new years festival during to most critical time to respond to a virulent airborne disease right?
@@fishyfish9716 That's a pretty generous assessment of him adding an extra danger zone area on a map that has already been assessed by scientists to be safe from the storm. If you're talking about Trump not informing the American public that coronavirus was a problem, I would definitely say he and the Republicans should have done everything possible to stop more cases from happening. The people would panic no matter what he did and allowing it to run rampant through the country killed thousands of people. He would have a second term now if he had tried to stop coronavirus, instead he is sulking over the very obvious loss he has been dealt.
LATINOS FOR TRUMP 2020!!!! vamos a hacer la ola roja estilo latino. Ustedes racistas comunistas de izquierda no nos van a decir por quien votar con su propaganda. Ustedes piensan que todos somos inmigrantes ilegales y que ustedes son dueños de nuestros votos.
I still love the interview with Mulvaney coughing. The fact that the interviewer pointed out who it was, and the cameraman changing angle to get him in the shot just so it couldn't be denied was the perfect way to deal with this idiot.
Us farmers depend on weather forcasts heavily to plant and harvest crops and when to move livestock from fields to shelter. This is no laughing matter to us. Shameful potus!
Understandable, Amy, but you should never get your weather forecast from the Oval Office anyway... the ones actually spread to radio stations etc did not include the Alabama warnings, did they? Nobody tried to make the sharpie-faked map official either, did they?
I've lived with livestock. From chickens to goats, to pigs, to cattle, to horses. This is the most blatant example of one attempting to protect ones thin skinned ego.
I’m beyond thinking this is funny. Trump is a dangerous person who needs to be dealt with not laughed at and it seems as though the US are not prepared to actually do anything about a madman running the country.
Agreed. He should have been impeached long ago, or drug out of the whitehouse forcibly by an angry mob. The only issue I see is that everyone in line to take his position is worse than he is.
Diane Farley then your political system is fatally flawed. You can do something but your leadership is gutless to try. I refer to Nancy sitting back and sending out strongly worded statements rather than impeachment and Republicans showing no back bone when they could easy have invoked the 25th and removed him.
It's illegal to yell "Fire!" in a crowded theater. Similarly, it should be illegal to yell "Water!" in a place that is not going to be hit by a hurricane. Truly, Trump's "Water"-gate.

@@nartouzumaki8232 wonder how the pitch goes..... Congress guy: nearly 4 years and now were just realizing it? Gotta be difficult for the next election to get rid of him. Senator guy: actually it's super easy, barely an inconvenience Congress guy: oh really? Senator Guy: yeah. We could get every sources we needed that proves he's a terrible father who brainwashed his kids, shamed his wife, taking money outside if the country, a biggot, a cheater in every way, a liar, and most of all the worst person in American history since... well any terrible people.
Wait until your commies will come on power and than you will live a real nightmare. The only problem is that voting with your commies you will give us the decent people a nightmare
nar ́to Uzumaki that will not matter at all for Trump. The Senate would have to go along with it and evidently they don't care how many crimes he commits or how unethical and abusive he is because they are afraid of losing their own re-elections. Too much self-dealing. We need term limits. We would have much more honest discourse like that we have seen from the people retiring the last few years.
Yes! Plus read up on Narcissistic Personality disorder..this guy is really f-ing Crazy.. Violence towards others is in his future.. he will Attack.. eventually..who he attacks..will be insanity
This is quite possibly THE dumbest thing that I have ever been witness to in my two decades on this planet. Like, Jesus H. Christ, man- all you had to do was tweet out 'My Bad' and this all would have been over in like, six hours. Now it's two full weeks later and there are investigations into this. Actually, the smartest thing you could have done was say nothing and just click the retweet on the NWS tweet. It would have been over! That's it! Two clicks! That's all! Now there's a political, media, and meteorological shitstorm!
that's what happens when you "spin" news to make yourself look good...and the idiots double down which shows their disdain for the true reality ...double down on a lie is still a lie but with extra mustard
This kind of behaviour is something that unites dictators all over the world. They can't be wrong in any kind, because that would destroy their need for praise. Stalin used to kill people who argued against him, and in doing so he also caused about 20 million deaths due to starvation. Just like Ttump, the communists also had alternative facts.
Can you imagine someone being so insecure, that when a professional disagrees with you, instead of backing down, you just try to bribe people agreeing with you, and do a sh*tty job at providing proof? I mean, there is mansplaining, and then there is Trump.
Anyone that watched Trump on SNL in 2000’s or with a basic reality tv knowledge knows what kind of person Trump is. I will never understand how people could overlook his awfulness and vote for him.
We were about to get the first woman to be president in American histor, but people was tricked to vote for the madman the promised of jobs...... A madman who is afraid of change even if we have to, who cheated his wife and somehow the law gives a pass, who has no respect of culture outside of the country, who is all ignorant and lies to the public, who jas blinded the people with hate against other ethnicities..... we are hoping that everyone will learn that lesson.... Even if its obvious to be true..... Like when he demand for a death penalty..... To 5 young men for the Central 5 case..... Because of their appearance in the park but far and due to their skin color...
Current Indian prime minister said that by using the cloudy weather, the air force can avoid being detected by enemy radars and took credit for Indian Air Force's valiant efforts in destroying terrorists camp. Guess I'm saying I'm no stranger to being led by dumb politicians but Americans have it on a whole different level.
@@NoorMohammad_ true that we have some dumb dumbs in gov but seeing trump i always wonder how can someone do that many idiotic things on day to day bases and still have supporters
@@salonimittal9808 I *guess* because they're in/were the same position like us. Modi won because his opponent was Rajiv Gandhi. I sure as hell was not going to vote for someone as inexperienced and green as Gandhi, so I voted for Modi knowing all too well he literally crippled our economy and then hinted that we clean roads and/or sell pakodas for a living. I guess information era politics is all about lesser of two evils.
you think that's bad... there are idiots who have said that black sharpie bit was originally part of the map but the "fake news" doctored this... wish i was joking but nope there's video of 5 idiots trying to defend the map and how it wasn't altered 🤦♀️🤦♂️
@@scooprussell930 and these people could get people killed giving them the wrong info. Today the info include a state where the weather will be fine, next time it will be where the weather is disasterous and Trump orders the agency to not give the order that would allow people to prepare for the upcoming disaster. People will die and those in charge will be brought up on charges.
Remember Malcolm in the middle? When this was written people still thought president of the United States was something noble to be, and something you'd need intelligence for
He uses the "fake news" words more and more these days when he's been caught in the wrong. It's very childlike. It would be laughable if it wasn't so disturbing. What is even more disturbing are the commenters I see who absolutely INSIST that they are going to vote this administration back into office in 2020. And I must ask these people: Are you wanting this administration back in because you want them to finish the destruction of the administrative government (because, yes, Trump is doing EXACTLY what Steve Bannon said was the goal of this administration) or are you feeling that keeping these people in power satisfies your need for revenge against your enemies on the left (I really wonder how "the left" has truly hurt these people)? I would really like a truthful answer.
The whole Alabama hurricane thing was just a test of the degree of mindless belief in Trump still remaining in the state where he historically had the greatest support.
Darth Wheezius We (UK) are putting up a fight. Bojo could be got for lying to the queen, which is tantamount to abuse of the extremely elderly, and also, with luck, treason. In a few weeks he has managed to reduce a very slender majority of one to a minority of 20 or so - it keeps changing - and he’s also in trouble for lying during his Brexshit campaign. His premiership may well end up in the Guinness Book of Records as both the shortest and most illegal. He’s always wanted to be PM, well, now he’s got it he hasn’t the vaguest idea of what to do with it. A bit like trump and the presidency!
@@margueritejohnson6407 I feel for you! When the UK voted for Brexit, most of Europe hoped you'd change your mind. But after three years of crazy, with Bojo's premiership as it's crowning moment, we just hope you don't. Sorry! We'll happily have you back once you sorted your internal mess out.
A Google User Hello, google user. Are you in Europe? If so, please feel free to make fun of (not my) Bojo and the rest of the gang. Except it’s now getting a bit frightening. Shortages of food we can deal with - my parents and grandparents survived the rationing in WW2. In fact, my father didn’t really as he was a pilot in the RCAF and was shot down and killed in Holland soon after D Day. But I digress. If the Labour Party, with Corbyn, use some pretty nifty fast footwork, we might, just might, get a second referendum and I know a lot of people may change their vote. The government document, Yellowhammer, has some fairly frightening scenarios about the results of a ‘no deal’ Brexshit. Shortages of necessary medication, like for diabetes, are already worrying people, but the very chilling picture of the government stockpiling body bags will cause real panic. I would very much like to stay in the EU; we have gained, in legislation for health and working conditions, much more than we have lost. The sight of morons brainwashed by billionaire right wing newspaper owners (daily mail, sun 🤮🤮) shouting that they want their country back is so stupid it’s almost funny. They seem to be quite oblivious of the prospect of a take over by trump, who has his eyes firmly set on the NHS, as well as other areas for trade. If you are European, could you please forgive us for all this buggering about and take us back?
It usually ends in revolt. The stupidity on display now is not that different than King Louis XVI and Mary Antoinette, except now we have a median for the news to travel at a more rapid rate.
@Alex H I am not going to deny that falsehoods have come from Trump or any other president’s mouth. What I question is the exhaustively tremendous effort of the left wing media to call him out on any and every embellishment and the constant attempt to berate him at every chance they get, completely ignoring his success in the economy, building the military and stopping the flow of illegal immigration. Whether you agree with this perspective viewpoint or not, when it comes to the media and Hollywood engaging in a constant barrage of insults and defamation play right into the fake news narrative whether it’s true or not. You decide for yourself.
@@yvonnewatkins492 no he was saying that there weren't any TRUMP scandals in the Obama administrations, at least 98% of the time. The whole Birtherism thing was a Trump scandal
I vaguely remember a time....a very distant memory...of a president who’s worst scandal was the suit he wore and the type of mustard he picked at a deli. Wow, what a time we lived in
@@mysterymeat586 He showed us in 2016 that's no simple matter. We've all got to vote, everyone. But yeah, it would be so cool if Sharpie-gate took him down! Why didn't they make that article 3 in the impeachment? His party kept complaining that there was no crime alleged.

Notice how this channel use to be filled with Trump Trolls and now there are *none*? I think they have all given up trying to rationalize the Annoying Orange and will soon go back to wearing hoods to hide their faces from their neighbors.
Trump: “I can not tell a lie.. without stopping in the middle.. to brag and blatantly self-promote.. and tell a few more side-lies.. and THEN maybe finish the original lie”
Yeah, you're right, Marcus, but it isn't the dumb stuff that concerns me, it's the heinous stuff he'll do before we can manage to get him out. No telling just how low he'll sink us.
As the more experienced officials are replaced with yes men, Trump is becoming more and more unfiltered. The chaos will get worse before it gets better.
my Polish granny used to steal wedding cake slices in her bra, freeze them and offer them to us years later... she used to also steal the sugar and salt shakers from trays outside of hotel rooms... this is very familiar to me...

Exactly. The position is meaningless after Trump. The next president will be like "I'm the president", while everyone else will be like "so what, everyone can be". Also, while trump is in power all the other institutions put policies in place to protect themselves from the president, acknowledging he acts about as stupid as a rock. Those policies will stay in place even after Trump leaves making the institution of POTUS a symbolic position. On the other hand, it was about time...
@@nydydn Yup way too much power in the hands of potus. Also get rid of the filibuster, electoral college, lifetime judge appointments. Senators should have shorter terms and the elections should not be staggered. Campaigns should be publicly financed as well as time limited (6 months or even less), no lobbyists or donations allowed.
