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%

Attacking the mayor of a disaster stricken city is not a good look, even for Trump. Is his ego that fragile? Seems like he was willing to give Florida and Texas everything they needed. What's the difference?

Trump's inability to lead the party he heads into repealing the ACA, something he claimed would be done immediately after he took office, indicates he's in no position to talk about a lack of leadership ability in others.

What a crock this thread is and the biased thread title. Notice the word attributed to Trump is "attacks" while the OP downplays what the San Juan Mayor does as being only "mean."

The truth is that the San Juan Mayor is the one that attacked Trump first. Trump is responding back at her attacks. Every bit of what Trump said is true. The democrat mayor failed her city and now they try to blame Trump, the easy scapegoat. Trump has every right to point this out.

You haters are such a joke. Everyone that's not a hater can see right through your chicanery.

I knew Trump was a jerk but WOW!!!

I think deep down he knows he's a one term president so he's just letting it fly, consequences be damned.

You are probably right, plus, he has gotten away with being a spoiled brat with a foul mouth all his life, why change now. This man simply does not get along with any other human being on the planet, he will throw his friends under the bus if he feels slighted. What a jerk.

Here's what she said: The retort from Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz: “This is, damn it, this is not a good news story. This is a ‘people are dying’ story. This is a ‘life or death’ story. This is ‘there’s a truckload of stuff that cannot be taken to people’ story. This is a story of a devastation that continues to worsen.”

Not exactly a vicious attack, I'd say. And even if she had "attacked" Trump, he could cut her some slack,under the circumstances. That would be the presidential thing to do.

But by now, anyone who expects presidential behavior from Trumpty Dumpty will be sorely disappointed.

Posts are funny. The Left still can't get over losing the election and now look for even the smallest thing to vent their anger.
Everyone sees this, but keep it up. It's very entertaining!

So basically instead of working to help her city and Puerto Rico she goes in front of cameras and do interviews for political reasons. What a piece of garbage she is but then that's par for course for democrat pols nowadays. She'll make the clownish likes of Pelosi, Warren, Hillary and Maxine Waters proud.
