The people of PR will get rid of her. She is standing in front of supplies crying for help.

CNN keeps playing clips of her over and over again, just like they do with Gen Honore. I get the feeling it wouldn't matter what Trump or FEMA does, she'd still be complaining.

PR mayor is a Ray nagin clone. Big mouth, preside over self made disaster.Blames the prez.


PR was an economic disaster with a failing infrastructure before the storm of biblical proportion that no one could have imagined. That state of disrepair has compounded the disaster for the PR people.


The government of PR set itself up for the disaster its people are now suffering. For the mayor to criticize Trump is unacceptable.


We'll see if this guy ends up where Nagin now resides. what a coincidence!


The effort to help PR is not in any way hampered by the criticism returned in response to the mayor's charge. PR was set up for disaster by that mayor.


Meanwhile FL and TX are out of the news despite their door to door storms of biblical proportion that the same agency aiding PR had to help.


If anything Trump admin looks like superman considering the nature and timing of three unprecedented storm. The complaing hate mongering dems, activists and PR mayor now appear as ridiculous fools to the rest of the country.

She is just a mayor. There are 78 mayors in Puerto Rico, so I don't know why she rates much notice.

You obviously know nothing about the history of Puerto Rico. If anyone set up Puerto Rico for disaster, it was the US Congress with its ever changing economic policies for Puerto Rico that Congress implemented anew with the shift of every passing breeze. Puerto Rico has no representation in either the House or the Senate, so the Puerto Rican people are pretty disenfranchised to say the least. "That" one mayor is responsible for San Juan, NOT the entire island. Get a clue.

Neither Florida nor Texas was hit "door to door" (whatever that means) by "Biblical" storms - ONE storm of Biblical proportions was more than enough to knock out the Houston area, especially. The island of Puerto Rico was hit back to back by first Irma and then the truly horrific Hurricane Maria.

When the massive earthquake hit Haiti on 12 January 2010 The United States Coast Guard cutters USCGC Forward (WMEC-911) and USCGC Mohawk (WMEC-913), both arrived in the port of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on 13 January. A Maritime Intelligence Support Team aboard the Forward assessed damage to the port. The cutters were supported by the destroyer USS Higgins (DDG-76). Two United States Air Force special operations MC-130H Combat Talon II aircraft also arrived 13 January with emergency supplies, medical units and special operations teams.

Hurricane Maria hit on 20 September. Five days later, the major of Puerto Rico was still begging for help which had barely begun to arrive. Now it's 30 September and Puerto Rico is STILL begging for help. This is unconscionable. Trump had rather call football players sobs than he would pick up the phone and call the military to go help Americans in desperate need.

WHEN A HORRIFIC EARTHQUAKE HIT THE ISLAND OF THE FOREIGN COUNTRY OF HAITI IN 2010, IT TOOK EXACTLY ONE DAY FOR US ASSISTANCE TO ARRIVE. WHEN A HURRICANE DEMOLISHED THE AMERICAN ISLAND OF PUERTO RICO, IT TOOK THE UNITED STATES 5 DAYS TO GET FEMA AND THE MILITARY TO PUERTO RICO TO HELP US CITIZENS!
