He could hitch his crazy wagon to the relief effort and give daily updates, making sure that everything that is needed for recovery is provided. Instead he virtually ignores the crisis and spends his time picking fights with rich, popular athletes (most of whom are black) and the most popular professional sports league in America. It's nuts.
    And then when he finally tweets about PR, he still has to throw an insult:


    "...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

      Fake News. Sad!

      PR governor says Trump is doing great: Link.

      Furthermore: "It may not be obvious to the media, but one of the difficulties in getting supplies to Puerto Rico is that it's an island 1200+ nautical miles from Miami, the closest major U.S. port. Clearing the ports takes time, and getting supplies for 3.4 million people by plane into devastated airports isn't a real option."

        Trump supporters buy Uggs, too. Well, some of them anyway.

          LOL@CNN... From what is being reported there you would think people millions of people are dying or something.

          I personally think that Puerto Rico should get representation in DC (i.e., become a state). If not, we should allow them to become part of Cuba or something.

            I didn't read about the travel ban this morning. Trump has added Chad. Chad is not an extremist terrorist state. They are very active in Western and Central Africa at fighting terrorists. We've trained their soldiers, conducted military exercises with them and have a small but important military presence there. Chad works really close with the French, who despite surrender monkey jokes, have been vital in combating terrorism in their sphere of influence.

            He added Chad but took off their rival Sudan. Makes zero fucking sense. Just more evidence of this president's dishitery. So glad killary lost!

            Chad helps fight Boko Haram militants, while Sudan is on the US list of state sponsors of terrorism.

              Does Venezuela really need to be on there either? I mean are you really telling me that there is a terror threat from people there, or are they just a country with a leader we don't like and a bunch of Spanish speakers, so no good.

                You guys may be missing what TeamTrump is up to here. You saw, I assume, that the S.Ct cancelled oral argument on the travel ban? And what was one of the primary criticisms of the ban? That it was focused only on unfriendly, muslim countries. Except, now it isn't. See?

                  Because trump can't fight with the NFL and be concerned/help Puerto Rico at the same time? Didn't he go to PR today or announce he's going this week?

                        Yeah, who let Utah become a state? I thought they had to give rid of polygamy first.

                          Trump is apparently deleting posts he made in support of Luther Strange, now that Strange lost to Roy Moore. Trump has some pretty idiotic tweets, many exposing him as a huge hypocrite, yet these are the tweets he rushes to delete.

                            And the lunacy continues to spill out unchecked, now having engulfed CS in its entirety.

                            This damn thread, which most definitely was initiated as a mocumentary, now stands as a requiem for this once great nation.

                                This deserves an 'oh brother.'

                                Former first lady Michelle Obama criticized female voters who cast their ballots for President Trump while speaking at a marketing and professional development conference in Boston on Wednesday, Boston.com reported.
                                "Any woman who voted against Hillary Clinton voted against their own voice," Obama said, while maintaining that she and her husband, former president Barack Obama, still hope for Mr. Trump's success.
