View Poll Results: Were Trump's Tweets Attacking Puerto Rico Justified?
YES. San Juan Mayor Carmen Cruz's comments against Trump were exaggerated and she deserved a harsh reply. 105 36.71%
NO. Trump's tweets were heartless and mean, given that many PR residents have no water, food, gas, cell phone service, and no medical supplies. 181 63.29%
Voters: 286. You may not vote on this poll

The guy more qualified than me, burnt my Aunts house down, running some wires to the new addition.
She said I wasn't an electrician and not qualified.

So believe fake news put out by trolls or my lying eyes?

Sorry, but real video has been coming out of PR for days.

And the so-called president's tweets are also real. Stop trying to spin this. Bad enough Trump is bashing American citizens he should be supporting.

That poster has a tendency to rely on Alex Jones for news.

What? You just have faith that people can't be that corrupt, so therefore it must not be true? BWAHHAAA!

That logic is not intelligent, that's naive. Latin-American politicians, if they're not just bumbling incompetent idiots, are notorious corrupt. I wouldn't put it passed a PR mayor.

The Good Mayor should be removed. She is clearly part of the problem!


Trump has done more Hurrican relief than Obama ever thought of.


This about people getting help. Not some Liberals trying to look for a angle.

Fema I saying that the Mayor is not working with FEMA and being proactive. This is not the place for Politics and this is a deadly serious recovery.


PR has not learned from Andrew and Katrina. This will interesting when all of the facts are out on "How public Officials reacted to these threats.


The Plus side of this is the Island Infrastructure and Homes will be up to code that in enforced on the mainland.

And they are, but it's taking some people a day to get to food, food that is being rationed. That means they're spending a day to get food that is only going to last a few days, maybe less since they don't have electricity. It's then taking a day to get water, a day to get gasoline, etc... And for some, the only water they have access to is rain water, which is not always safe to drink.

The relief supplies are already there, sitting on docks!

Puerto Rico aid is trapped in thousands of shipping containers - CNN

Just in case a responsible news source isn't good enough for the leftists here, even CNN is reporting it.

The people of Puerto Rico, particularly truck drivers, aren't bothering to show up for work and get it delivered.
