President Trump again defends his claim that Hurricane Dorian could have hit Alabama.
Later that day, Trump twice told reporters that Alabama was in the storm's path, first saying outside of Marine One that"Alabama is going to get a piece of it, it looks like," and later, at a Federal Emergency Management Agency briefing, saying the storm"may get a little piece of a great place: It's called Alabama.".
But there was one key difference: Where the original projection ended, a smaller, black circle that appeared to be hand-drawn with a Sharpie included Alabama in the model. President Donald Trump with an early projection map of Hurricane Dorian in the Oval Office on Sept. 4, 2019.Asked later that day about the discrepancy with the original map, Trump said:"I don't know. I don't know."
The episode sparked internet users to post an array of memes under the hashtag #sharpiegate on Twitter.
