Those containers have almost no way to leave the San Juan port. Lack of cleared roads and truck drivers. So fail.

As for the local people leading the rescues. Do you think they're just sitting on their butts? But the realities of two hurricanes v one, Puerto Rico being an island, and little to no food, water, medicine and food make this scenario very different from TX and FL. An epically bad comparison.

Trump botched this one. It's ok to admit a specific time he's wrong. You'll still be the boards resident hardline right poster.

good to see she atleast has recourses and generators to print help us we are dying recourses. but she cannot seem to find truck drivers1

if you cannot find truckdrivers. fill schoolbusses with food and bring it around!

but these socialist rather blame others than do every single thing they can to help others.


but that would be counter their socialist agenda, that things can be done without government!

I don't think the mayor has just been standing around, and I think neighbors have been helping neighbors...

But we all should know by now that it's asking way too much to expect Trump to show any class. As the general who turned around the Katrina response observed, the mayor is living on a cot while the president has been golfing. Golfing and tweeting. What a leader.

So, Trump's efforts on Saturday amounted to 18 tweets covering Puerto Rico in 11 hours. I wonder if he had time for the back 9 on his golf course? Busy guy!

http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/01/politics/trump-tweets-puerto-rico/index.html

"What's more remarkable than Donald Trump -- aka the commander in chief, aka the most powerful person in the country -- tapping out 18 tweets on a single subject in less than 12 hours is the tone of those tweets: Negative, defensive and dark."

"At a time of crisis for more than 3 million Americans living in Puerto Rico, their President decided to pick a fight with a local official due to her frustration with the recovery efforts. Rather than send a tweet urging patience (or maybe not tweeting at all!), Trump decided the best course of action was to go after Yulin Cruz and "others in Puerto Rico" for their allegedly poor job in dealing with Hurricane Maria."

"The words Trump used are telling. "They want everything to be done for them," he tweeted. "They"? You mean the millions of American citizens in Puerto Rico? And the not-so-subtle suggestion of laziness in Trump's tweets is just more of the same racially coded language that the President has trafficked in since the day he announced his campaign."

"What Trump is doing -- in his attacks on Yulin Cruz and the media -- is trying to divide the country as a way to deflect blame for his administration's performance.
"They" are lazy and want everything done for them. "They" are being nasty because Democrats told them to. "They" aren't rooting for our first responders. "They" are trying to convince people that our soldiers aren't doing a good job."

"18 tweets. 11 hours. Full of blame, anger and victimhood. Totally devoid of hope, inspiration or unity.
This is Trumpism."
 
Trump's tweets on Puerto Rico are a national disgrace:

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/opinion-trump-s-tweets-puerto-rico-are-national-disgrace-n806276

"Nothing shows leadership like attacking the victims of a deadly hurricane."

"Not content to merely politicize a humanitarian crisis, he injected it with a note of thinly-disguised racism. Referring to the people of Puerto Rico, he tweeted that “They want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort.”

"These words are shameful. If the president hadn’t been so busy last weekend tweeting about flags and football players, he would understand that what is happening in Puerto Rico is by default a community effort. The residents of Puerto Rico – about 3.5 million American citizens – went through the hurricane on their own. They have indeed been helping each other, searching for food and fuel, and looking for their loved ones in the absence of a more robust government response."

"Leave it to our Race-baiter-in-Chief to resort to the tired tropes that minorities want everything done for them, that they’re lazy, and that they are dependent on the government. These sentiments are offensive in the best of times. In the wake of a catastrophic weather event, they are despicable. Coming from this president, they are yet another sign of his lack of empathy, his lack of respect for women, and his indifference to the concerns of Latinos."

"Trump’s latest tweets on Puerto Rico constitute a national disgrace. At a time of major national emergency, he has – again – shown the world just how small he really is."
 
lol!

THIS MAYOR IS being called A POLITCALLY MOTIVATED INGRATE!


now complaining about bureaucracy! yeah bitch government bureaucracy sucks. but that is what lefties want
 
lol how has he botched it!

people can step up!

In a national crisis situation he should have known these realities. He either didn't and that's a failure.

Or. He did and failed to plan accordingly. That is a failure of leadership and adequate planning.

That's the thing about leadership that you don't get. The buck stops with him. Or at least it should.

failure in democratic ****! buracracy, jones act.
a corrupt system! their are rumors the truckers are refusing to drive, they are using the hurricane as contract negotiations! but you will not here anything about that from lame stream media. because it goes against the unions and to socialist and nazi germany Unions are very important(yes i will compare every single thing the left does to something similar nazi germany did. because i am sick and tired of being called a nazzi or hitler supporter)

if this truckdriver thing is true! they deserve to die

corruption and bureaucracy made this worse than it has to be! ofcourse it being a island also did not help! but still blaming trump. really? that is rich
 
"To an extent, the United States of America held up surprisingly well from Inauguration Day until September 20th or so. The ongoing degradation of American civic institutions, at a minimum, did not have an immediate negative impact on the typical person’s life. But the world is beginning to draw a straight line from the devastation in Puerto Rico straight to the White House. Trump’s instinct so far is to turn the island’s devastation into another front in culture war politics, a strategy that could help his own political career survive. The rest of us will just have to pray for good luck."

From an article by Matthew Yglesias on Trump's response to the crisis in Puerto Rico. Full article here:

https://www.vox.com/2017/10/1/16390006/puerto-rico-trump

"Trump doesn’t know much about governing. But he is very good at channeling every discussion into the same handful of culture war tropes. Shifting the discussion in this direction rather than adopting a tone of humility will, of course, only make substantive recovery more difficult by polarizing the topic in congress and among the public."

wait is that xir serious? the power-lines where above grounds for years. the electric company is dying. the corruption in those companies. are repsobnsible for people who cant cool their insulin. also those people are responsible. after all every,man who cares about the wellbeing of their family has a generator lying around!
but the culture in peurto rico is screw some chick get her pregnant leave her be! as a majority of children are growing up in single parent household. suddenly they need govrernment and taxpayers to be daddy.
but taxpayers and government are requested to stay out of the bathroom! well when that bum single dadddy wa shaving the time of his live having sec on the song despactio or some similar vulgar song we did not get to enjoy the sexual pleasure as government or taxpayers!

but these people blame patriarchy for everything! lack of patriarchy is killing people their! lack of men taking responsibility to look after their offspring!


BUT YET THESE LIBERALS DRAW STRAIGHT LINES TO TRUMP!

but do not wnat to draw straigtlines from obama, to chavez, to castro, to nazi germany, to stalin to mao!

**** the media!

Trump's response has been deplorable, but this seriously short-changes the relief efforts going on from several fronts, including military, relief organizations, and FEMA. One thing this article does not do is outline exactly where the actual response in terms of relief failed. All in all the relief efforts have been pretty solid. Now Trump is a dick and he of course turned this into his favorite topic, making this all about him. But the government as a whole responded as well as could reasonably be expected considering we were already engaged in 2 other huge relief efforts at the time. Believe it or not resources are not infinite and response times cannot be instantaneous. Everything I have read the actual experts have said that the actual relief efforts have been as good as they could have been under the circumstances.

I've also read things like the Mayor of San Juan having yet to go to, or even meet with, FEMA in San Juan.

I’ve read the same unfounded claim from Drudge and Brietbart. A very convenient story for the right given Trump’s tweeting.
 
Syria and job growth.

Keep in mind you didn't set the bar very high. It was merely "vastly outperform". Not even saying Trump is doing a better job than she would have. Just don't believe she'd vastly outperform him in these two areas.

Yes, he sucks. Horribly bad.

Job growth has actually gone done (marginally) in the first 6 months since Trump took office compared to Obama's last six months in office when things were, according to Trump, worse than it's ever been.

Wasn't really my point but OK. You're right, it has.

Yup. The president should know every law on that he books. Plus, we should expect fake news Jones Law to be used as a reason for the left to complain even though waiving it has not done a single damn think ta git aide to PR just like Trump said.

It is fake news an you stoked should no better then to fall for it.
