The only, only, people calling this a success are Trump boot-lickers.



I just did....try to read.....the study included all deaths....natural causes, accidents, and homicides and lumped it all in 1 category.




what they did was take an average of deaths from previous years and compared it from a specific time after the hurricane and they came up with that guess.



try using your brains and common sense once in a while..

It doesn't say they're hurricane victims, I want names to prove your claim because I say you're full of ****.

Except they didn’t, but nice try, I know this is hard for the Trump supporters to swallow when their mouth is already busy with Trump.

Fortunately for the rest of us, the world doesn’t rely on your opinion as the basis of reality.

Prove it's true.



The PR government said it was 64. Are you calling them liars?

A half-truth at best, as the government publicly acknowledged that number as in inaccurate.

Quote:
The data reveal that there were 1,427 more deaths in the last four months of 2017 than the average over the four years before. The new count comes as questions swirl around the official death toll and reports that hundreds of bodies remain unclaimed in the island's main morgue.

The official death toll from Hurricane Maria stands at 64, but as early as December Gov. Ricardo Rossello conceded the count is inaccurate. He has said he will not raise the official figure until George Washington University completes a study on the data.

Let's See. According to Democrats PR Death Toll due to Storm.
  • 64 - When Democrats were Responsible (for the past year too)
  • 3000 - When Trump mentioned FEMA
Has to be seen to be believed.

Wow, the stupidity around here is astounding. He was referring to the response to the storm. The deaths were the result of the territorial government of PR not being prepared in conjunction with the massive corruption that lingers on that island from its Latin roots.

And Trump does not give a flying fornication if any of these folks drop dead either. They support a thief who would have ripped them off without blinking an eye at his bogus university...go figure, but that is the caliber of some of the folks that comprise Trump's bizarre base. There are also the birthers, the bots and Putin's trolls.
