but still, it is notable so if any president should have i intimate knowledge of a cat gore five hurricane, it should be president trump which is why fema headquarters drew scrutiny, the idea he was so baffled by a category five hurricane and that exists. forgive me, i don t have the read in on this because i was overseas but correct me if i m wrong, at some point over the last day, was he also tweeting after debra messing, the actress about comments she had allegedly once made to him about how grateful she was for the apprentice? absolutely right. i believe that was yesterday, if i m not mistaken he was targeting debra messing over twitter. to put this into context, he went after her but he s going after the head of a union, a prominent head of a union going after james comey once again and been going after many other s -
busy see and doing too important work and winning so much. i mean, it s not us knit picking but using his own criteria for judging other presidents and by his own criteria, he sure is golfing a lot. he also made very confusing comments yesterday saying that this is not, that this is the i mean, this is not the first category five hurricane to threaten the u.s. since he took office and yet, he seemed to indicate that he had never heard of a of a category five hurricane. yeah, he seemed stunned by the fact hurricane dorian has strengthened to a category five, that he didn t know a category five existed but if you go back and look at his past comments, he s made five such comments since 2017 and there have been four category five hurricanes since trump has been in office. not all of those made landfall
with a money back guarantee. and complete your routine with the olay eye collection. brand power. helping you buy better. hurricane dorian is stalled over the bahamas doing damage to flooding in communities in places where patrick reported before the break there is no high ground. once the hurricane starts moving again, it s expected to come dangerously close to florida s atlantic coast. mandatory evacuation orders are in effect for parts of all 11 counties in the state including where randi kaye is on singer island in palm beach county. randi, you re in an evacuation zone there. what s going on? are you feeling, and what s this situation been like all day for you? reporter: it s been a really strange weather day, anderson. right now i m feeling like i m getting pelted by pretty heavy rain coming in, but it s been a
it doesn t move at all. it s staying on grand bahama island and the bad part, the strongest winds around the eye wall are the strongst winds and they have been battering the island all day long. this is a dumb question but why does a hurricane just stall over an island? it s squeezed in between two areas of high pressure. there is no steering current for this storm to move. that should change, though, by the time we get into tomorrow. that s when the storm is expected to pick up a little bit of forward speed. now the storm is now located about 100 miles to the east of west palm beach. it s still very, very close to florida and the brush with florida is crucial because depending on how close this storm gets will depend on the impacts that florida will see. you can already see those outer rain bands pushing on shore. when that happens, we ll get heavier rains and stronger winds but the closer this gets to florida is going to determine
us. ten, 12 hours after this hurricane came here, i ve never experienced anything like it and, you know, we think about all of the tens and thousands of residents not in a secure place, in the dark for the second night in a row, listening to this wind perhaps watching the water rise in their home and who is going to rescue them? how will they survive tonight? it s going to be the worst night of their lives if they see the dawn. and i mean, there was no warning this would just stall over the island. reporter: no, there really wasn t. it came into marsh harbor right the next island over to us caused a lot of damage there and moved fairly quickly to where we are last night and it just stopped moving, and that is really, it is the worst imaginable scenario, anderson. you have a powerful first
