Trumps response was callous but in fairness, the mayor is trying to pin the whole thing on Trump out of political opportunism.
Of course he's incapable of taking the political hit over this, but then again like what people like Nagin and Cynthia McKinney did to Bush after Katrina I guess they should just lie down and accept the racially charged and divisive rhetoric that in another thread right now I see posters claiming it only comes from Trump?
LMAO.
Trumps an idiot with extremely thin skin.
The mayor of PR is being politically and racially divisive to further her own career.
First there is no Mayor of Puerto Rico ,she is the Mayor of San Juan .I just want to remind everyone how nice the republicans where to Obama after Sandy,they even turned down the aid package in Congress.
How is it with no form of communication, every time I turn on the TV, there she is. The mayor of San Juan. She has time and electricity and phones to talk to media. She could had had FEMA whipped into shape by now.

Reason: typo
Why aren't Obama and the Clintons down there?? Or Romney??
They all have MUCH less to do on a daily basis than our President does. And they have oodles of money at their disposal.
The islands got hit twice. Puerto Rico sent some of their supplies to the US Virgin Islands after the first. Supplies are dwindling.
Thank you for reminding us all about the double whammie.

You should care. Would you really rather see Russia, China or North Korea help rebuild Puerto Rico so close to our southern border? Maybe put up a couple of missile silos aimed at the mainland U.S.A.?

Having worked as a broadcast technician for 20 years, the reporters can't do the 2nd job. However, reporters come with technicians &/or camera operators. If a technician had a trucking license, they could take a container & turn it into a story for air. That solves nothing & could be a problem if the truck drivers are union.

Not the Clinton's. They spent millions of charity money that was given to Haiti .

As an official, she has a satellite phone. Nice try, though.
