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

Are you suggesting that she should be topless when on TV because she should be too busy to put a T-shirt on? Is it problematic that she's wearing other clothing too. The other clothing also took a few seconds to put on.

Tell that to Corporal Miller
Life & Death on a Tank Crew - by Oda C. "Chuck" Miller

All of a sudden we received a direct hit to the turret. The shell hit the cupola ring and a flash of fire hit my periscope. The shell blew the tank commander's hatch open, took part of his head off, and then proceeded to blow off the anti-aircraft gun and mount. Bill Hey was killed instantly and he fell down on my back, covering me with blood. By the time I could get Bill off of my back, the assistant driver had bailed out and the loader had crawled through the turret and out the assistant driver's hatch. Instead of checking to see where the gun tube was located, all I could think about was getting out of the tank, since when they hit you once they generally keep hitting you until the tank catches fire.

I think you made my point.

The difference between you and me is I praise actions of heroes, and you praise inanimate objects.

Trump could private fund cancer research , personally find the cure to that dreaded disease and the haters would complain that he caused 10,000 researchers to be laid off .

She's more qualified than Trump to be president.

Well, while you are 100% correct, it's a pretty low bar with Trump. Every single Representative and Senator in Washington is more qualified to be President, as well as all 50 Governors and the majority of CEO's and military generals in this country.

There are thousands more than this, but you get the idea.

Actually, it's kind of cool.

I'd rather see that than what I now see: junk diesel trucks bigger than tanks on the street that wake me up every morning, slobs living next door with at least a dozen pit bulls that bark incessantly, motor blocks and incapacitated boats rotting in front yards, weeds eight feet tall, etc. You get the idea. A tank would be a welcome relief. And if it could fire its 76mm canon at some of the dilapidated cockroach motels around here, all the better.

Sigh... and this neighborhood used to be so rural and charming. It used to be a good neighborhood... before the Golden Hoard began infesting the valley. Bring in the tanks.

But Jesus Christ, this isn't about liberals. It's about people not wanting a tank sitting outside their $10 million mansion.

Shameless.
Where in your post did you praise actions of the heroes that crewed the tank

Having the "qualification" to be president went out the window when Obama became president

Once again, Bernie is right. The foot dragging response by Trump could be attributed to gross negligence, but knowing that Spanish speaking brown people are essentially being ignored, it does point to racism.
