Newell Brands , the company that makes Sharpie markers, got an overnight surge in popularity following President Trump’s use of an apparently altered weather map to support his assertion that Alabama was in the path of Hurricane Dorian.

We live in TX and have relatives friends near coastal areas... We were very scare for them last wk because of Harvey (when storm started to form in Atlantic waters) ... Any coastal regions in Mexico gulf /fla were fair game last wk
So unpredictable.. Prayers for everyone who is in Dorian path
I worked emergency services during Hurricane Andrew in S.Florida back in 1992. Hurricanes are NOT to be trifled with!!!
#SharpieGate was pathetically amusing on Twitter today.
I wonder if he was hoping to use the storm's (alleged) impact to try and funnel some 'disaster aid' money in an effort to buy votes in order to keep red senate seats?
Tweety isn't even TRYING to lie well anymore, it seems.....
The White House is a circus and the clowns are in charge. Wouldn't you really love to be able to eavesdrop on the private comments of the leaders of other countries? Actually, maybe not. It would be very disheartening.
Hi @Old_Joe et al I recall that Roy let this stand and stay in place at FundAlarm; as there were periods when he allowed song titles and lyric to be posted to reflect market overviews through this medium. The below lyric travels into my mind from various scenarios over the years; and is more so reflective with current political scenarios now. I suspect some of the word plays at the time had to with ongoing sloppy markets after the melt. Their were still enough investors, large and small who were still wondering where everything was going to land. As for today, this fits more closely with politics; from which the ramifications continue to have large impacts upon various investing market types. Perhaps I'm merely fitting the words to what only I see or feel. Have a go for yourself. Hell, I may be starting phase one of becoming senile. The lyric eventually repeats, but I have placed the entirety. Take care and good evening, Catch

Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
And I'm wondering what it is I should do,
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place,
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please, please
Trying to make some sense of it all,
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
'Cause I don't think that I can take anymore
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
