Donald Trump Is Such a POS That We Forget About Puerto Rico


Trump in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria

I chose that picture because Trump is such a piece of shit of a human being, there are too many things to try and remember, so you ponder something he said or did for a few days, and then he does something else.


For a moment, I totally forgot that when Donald Trump went to Puerto Rico, he was shooting paper towels to people like they were a basketball to people who were trying to cope with what had just happened to them.


Due to the incompetence and indifference of the Trump administration's handling of Puerto Rico, roughly 3,000 people died.


Instead of acknowledging failure, and stepping up efforts, Trump went to Twitter to say that those numbers were just made up by Democrats who are just trying to make him look bad:






He loves Puerto Rico so much that not only is he willing to tell them that loved one's lives don't matter to him, but he's willing to take away money that is suppose to go to the Island in aide for his stupid wall, according to a report by NBC News.


NBC:


"Under the proposal, the officials said, Trump could dip into the $2.4 billion allocated to projects in California, including flood prevention and protection projects along the Yuba River Basin and the Folsom Dam, as well as the $2.5 billion set aside for reconstruction projects in Puerto Rico, which is still recovering from Hurricane Maria."


"Who needs to prevent floods or help hurricane victims when you can build a giant useless wall?!" noted Sophie Weiner of Splinter.


It's not just Trump's stupidity and incompetence that would be the reason if Trump chose to go this route. It speaks to his vindictive mentality, and his xenophobia beliefs.


He doesn't care if he takes money from a state that does not support him, whatsoever, and in his mind Puerto Ricans aren't American citizens.


Every time Trump and others bring up caravans, the media should remind readers and listeners about Puerto Rico. The caravans are not a story. They are just fear tactics to rile up racists.


The real story is that while American's have to endure the Trump presidency, none have had to endure more than Puerto Ricans.
