Trump can treat Puerto Rican Americans like shit because the territory has no electoral votes and since 50% of Americans think Puerto Rico isn't part of the United States.

Trump sees the island as a sacrifice to placate his base and is acting accordingly.

Except there will be an influx of PR's, hopefully into FL that will forever turn this state blue because of it.

Trump is saying we can't support Puerto Rico forever.

Is he that ignorant or is he about to remove the island's teritory designation and make it an independent country?

Think Chinese navy would like to have a Caribbean Naval base?

It's too bad that GRR and most here rely on fake news for their daily brain washings. Note this is the Puerto Rican delegate to the US House - a Democrat. The reality of what she says is happening is a stark contrast to what the media is feeding you.

Puerto Rico Delegate: Everything That We've Asked For, Trump Has Provided

In an interview with USA Today, Puerto Rico’s delegate in the House of Representatives, Jenniffer Gonzalez-Colon, discussed the aftermath of Hurricane Maria on the island and the way President Trump has handled the response.

"I will tell you that everything that the president said that he was going to send to the island, it's getting there. The resources are there. The help is there," Colon said.

"There are things that I never do, but, you know, the president is always out of the script," Colon remarked. "And I think that's the main difference. People are used to having politicians that are politically correct, that follow the script, and he's not like that. I mean, what you see is what you get and that's the way he is."

"He instructed all his cabinet members to treat Puerto Rico as a state, in terms of this hurricane," she said. "I mean, that kind of instruction is important to have access to all those programs."

Now carry on with your nearly year long Chicken Little conversation.

Yeah. 15% of the island has power, and people are drinking water from a Superfund site. You think that would happen in the US? You think Trump is doing a good job? "Puerto Rico is an island. Surrounded by water." - Page 3 502811600

Chairwoman of the Republican Party of Puerto Rico[edit]
In November 2015 González was unanimously elected as Chairwoman of the Republican Party of Puerto Rico after being the party's Vice-Chair for eight years. She succeeded Aguadilla mayor Carlos Méndez in the position that once was held by former Governor Don Luis A. Ferré, founder of the New Progressive Party and Dr. Jose Celso Barbosa the founder of both the Republican Party and the statehood movement in Puerto Rico.[9][10]

Tenderhearted Goose back here talking shit again.

The media always wrong in Goose's Trump reality?

Guess the media was wrong when reporting The Jones Act waiver wasn't renewed so Puerto Rico will be paying a premium for everything shipped to the island.
Guess the media is wrong about more that 70% of the population still being off the electrical grid.
Wrong about more than 50% of the cell service is down.
Wrong about Puerto Ricans having to use unsafe wells because their water system is broken poste hurricane and bottled water deliveries can't keep up.

Trump has Kelly Ann Conway to lie on national networks
The Swill has Goose from Mio to spread Trump lies here.
All the doings in Mio Fake News too?

You guys. The source that goose used here did not say that Gonzalez was a life long democrat. And I do not believe that goose just made that up.

So, tell us goose, which of your sources is no longer to be trusted because they flat out lied to you? Sources that lie should be outed to everyone. We're sorry that you got taken into it. But tell us who spewed that bullshit to you so we all know to not trust them in he future.

I am 100% willing to go out on a limb that whatever bullshit source goose used confuses "new party for progress" for democrat because they are fucking idiots that don't realize that "democrat" and "republican" don't really apply there. Goose will continue to believe the shit that source spews despite their ridiculous error and we will answer dendros question from a different thread simultaneously.

Jenniffer Gonzalez has been running for political office as a Republican since 2002.

It’s understandable if one relies on FoxNews, to think a Republican is a Democrat based on that media outlet’s prior history of identifying GOP pols as Democrats when the GOP pol fucks up.

Golly more main stram media Fake News from Rep Gonzalez who called Trump's comments "shocking"

From the link:
“Your life,” González-Colón told me with tears in her eyes during an interview for POLITICO’s Off Message podcast, “is like stopping without knowing what is going to happen next.”

Days after we spoke, on Monday, President Donald Trump was standing in the Rose Garden of the White House, explaining why he shouldn’t be blamed for a lackluster hurricane response that has exasperated Puerto Ricans and infuriated many other Americans back on the mainland.

Trump cited the pre-existing debt, said the island “was in really bad shape” before the storm, ripped local authorities for making the military participate in handing out food in a way that “they shouldn’t have to be doing,” and insisted he’d been doing an “outstanding job.”

The word González-Colón—a lifelong Republican—kept using to describe presidential statements like this is “shocking.

“Saying that Puerto Rico is in bankruptcy as a way or excuse just to not to help is not wise. It’s not American, and it’s not rightful,” González-Colón said. “If we were a state, we already would have a lot of the help that Florida did.”

If Puerto Rico was a state, its 3.4M population would put it between Iowa (3.1M) and Connecticut (3.6M)

I'm guessing if even a low population state like Vermont (625K) or Wyoming (590K) had over 70% of its population off the electrical grid 30 days after a major storm we'd see some US Senators raising hell and a US President doing more than blaming them for past fiscal woes.

nearly 3,000 people killed during Hurricane Maria and it's aftermath.

I look forward to the outrage from our pro-life patriots.

(CNN)Hurricane Maria caused an estimated 2,975 deaths in Puerto Rico, according to a new report from George Washington University -- 46 times more than the official toll given by the government.

Researchers calculated excess deaths that occurred in the US commonwealth between September 2017 and February 2018.
