      As per [original article](https://www.mediaite.com/trump/trump-claims-nobody-thought-a-hurricane-would-hit-this-time-of-year-despite-it-being-peak-hurricane-season/) 📰:

      – Former President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump claimed on Monday that “nobody thought” a storm as devastating as Hurricane Helene would make landfall at this point in the year despite the fact that it is currently peak hurricane season.

      In remarks made in Valdosta, Georgia on Monday, Trump lamented that “the devastation wrought by this storm is incredible.”

      “It’s so extensive, nobody thought this would be happening — especially now it’s so late in the season for the hurricanes,” he added.

      But according to the Florida Climate Center at Florida State University, hurricane season on the United States’ Atlantic coast lasts from June 1 until November 30, with the peak coming between mid-August and late October.

      Trump’s marveling at Helene’s appearance during peak season followed a string of controversial comments he made on Monday.

      In one post on Truth Social, Trump accused his general election opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, of leaving “Americans to drown” while staging a “FAKE” photo op after Helene ripped through the East Coast.

      In another, he accused North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper (D) and the federal government of “going out of their way not to help people in Republican areas.”

      The former president also claimed that Georgia Governor Brian Kemp (R) was “having a hard time” getting President Joe Biden on the phone, insisting that “the federal government is not being responsive.”

      Unfortunately for Trump, Kemp had already told reporters that he had spoken to Biden earlier in the day.

      “The president just called me yesterday afternoon. I missed him and called him right back,” Kemp explained to the press. “And he just said ‘Hey, what do you need?’ And I told him, you know, we got what we need, we’ll work through the federal process. He offered that if there’s another things we need just to call him directly, which I appreciate that.”

      He lives in Florida and didn’t think hurricanes hit in late September?

      And his supporters take offense to being called stupid.

      Well, at least he didn’t try and redraw the official NOAA path of the hurricane with a sharpie or something. 😅

      Well, if Trump wasn’t so busy raging about Haitians eating their pets, he could have gotten out his black Sharpie and drawn a cone of safety on the NOAA charts.

      Just like no one knew how difficult health care is. Everyone knew that except Trump, the complete moron.

      I mean, he doesn’t inhabit the White House anymore, so he doesn’t have direct access to the weather advisory officials and a decent Sharpie.

      He’s so narcissistic his entire world is himself. That’s why everything he says is “everybody knows it”, “nobody could have known”, “languages no one’s heard of before…”

       If he doesn’t know it then nobody does it’s as simple as that. His Uncle talked him about ‘nuclear’ and now he knows more than anyone. It’s part of his mindset of reducing everything to a singularity, you have The Criminals, The Left, the ever halcyon ‘They’…

      Scientists have also been screaming for years that when storms like this hit they are gonna get worse

      Meteormoronolist. He doesn’t know shit about a whole lot of stuff, but knows less than shit about weather forecasting.
