Every time some one brought up Hillary's name the loony left would instant comment on the poster fixating on Hillary and that she is not not in politics or running for president any more.
If such is the case why does she need a press secretary who is commenting on politics of Puerto Rico. Should she not be taking long walks in the woods and taking care of her grandchildren.
That lady and her fat mouth are the democrat's worst nightmare who just would not go away.
Says the Clinton who lobbied to get the largest crime bill in history (at that time) passed, and that her husband signed into law, resulting in mass incarceration of mostly black males.
And when questioned, she said:
"They are often the kinds of kids that are called 'super-predators. No conscience, no empathy, we can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel."
Yeah, she later apologized after being taken to task, but 'super-predators we have to bring to heel'?
Is that what some cops are doing when they demand a cigarette be put out during a questionable traffic stop, and then arrest the driver when she asks why?
My fellow Dem's never want to talk about this for some reason.
I've posted this before, but I see it needs to be put out there again.
From the article:
WASHINGTON, Sept. 25, 2017 — The federal government's priority is continuing to provide lifesaving and life-sustaining resources to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands in the wake of recent hurricanes in the Caribbean Sea, Pentagon spokesman Army Col. Rob Manning told reporters today.
"The [Federal Emergency Management Agency] and its federal partners are in the lead and the Department of Defense is in support," Manning said, noting that about 2,600 DoD personnel are in the Caribbean.
"We continue to conduct 24-hour operations, aggressively conducting search and rescue operations, bringing additional essential commodities to the islands and restoring power at critical facilities with generators and the fuel needed to power them," he said.
Amphibious Ready Group
Among DoD efforts is the USS Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group, which has conducted eight medical evacuations and 123 airlifts and delivered 22,200 pounds of relief supplies and cargo to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the spokesman said.
"Yesterday, they inserted Marine Corps and Navy teams in to Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, to conduct route reconnaissance, clearance of main roads and clearance of the airfield and associated taxiways," he added.
The ships also have deployed a disaster response team to St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands to clean streets and distribute commodities, Manning said.
The USS Kearsarge Ambhibious Ready Group has inserted the Army’s 602nd Area Support Medical Company and a Civil Authority Information Support Element to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, he noted, in addition to transporting supplies between St. Croix and St. Thomas.
"The U.S. Navy worked with the U.S. Coast Guard to reopen the port of San Juan, and [it] is open to support daylight operations," the colonel said.
U.S. Transportation Command is moving additional personnel and equipment, including eight UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters from Fort Campbell, Kentucky, to the San Juan International Airport in Puerto Rico to increase distribution capacity, he said.
PR is just an afterthought - where is the electricity and potable water? Not to mention MONEY and there is nothing happening regarding a bill similar to Harvey to allocate MONEY for PR. Trump is providing zero moral or Presidential leadership and again could care less.
Trump doesn't consider them to be American enough to deserve any help. They have brown skin and speak Spanish. As far as Trump's base is concerned, Puerto Ricans are just Mexican rapists looking for handouts while they change OUR culture.

Lies, lies and more damn lies. So now the POTUS is a Lineman and water delivery guy?
It has been almost a week since Maria completely "obliterated" (Trump's words) Puerto Rico and the Dotard is still acting as if nothing much has happened. In the meantime these US CITIZENS are living under horrific and third world like conditions and are getting bupkus from their government.
My take on this is, since this US territory and it's inhabitants are not part of Donny's base, he could care less and it is showing Bigly.
Donny should be spending less time on the NFL and a hell of a lot more time on PR!
You are a day late and a dollar short willful. Your talking point was issued yesterday. you missed it.
by the way TheDonald has sent both the Navy and Coastguard to PR in addition to FEMA that was deployed before the storm hit... logisitics and aid have been on the ground since before the storm hit, and the money has been released.
besides all that, the navy has already provided more than a million meals with another million on the way.
poor widdle wibwul wost his talkingpoint.
