Puerto Rico: Lin-Manuel Miranda Deletes Tweet Thanking Trump
Newsbusters ^ | September 30, 2017 | P.J. Gladnick

Before "Hamilton" creator Lin-Manuel Miranda was slamming President Donald Trump he was thanking him on Twitter as recently as September 26.  Since that very politically inconvenient tweet does not now fit into the current mainstream media and Democrat agenda to paint Hurricane Maria relief efforts in Puerto Rico as Trump's Katrina, Miranda found it necessary to send it down the memory hole via deleting it. Unfortunately for him, there is a screen shot of the tweet posted before the liberal effort went into overdrive to portray Trump as not caring about Puerto Rico.

When it became politically inconvenient, after the MSM and Democrats attempted to portray the relief efforts as "Trump's Katrina," Lin-Manuel Miranda found it necessary to delete his tweet thanking Trump and join the anti-Trump leftwing chorus.

that’s where we are at. You have to follow the liberal line in all things. He was afraid of being black balled by his fellow liberal Broadway and Hollywood idiots.

What a horse’s ass this dude is.

The good thing is most people have wised up to this type of political opportunism and see it for what it really is. Democrats never letting a good crisis go to waste. As far as I am concerned if these people are to lazy to get up off there lazy arses and help themselves the let them die waiting for the federal government to do everything for them.

Of course, he’s a typical lying leftist..perhaps he should be putting the blame on the Unions in Puerto Rico who are refusing to unload the trucks

How about someone take the wayback machine, collect the post saying thank you and put it up all over the place on the Internet.

Puerto Rico was a disaster before the hurricane. They ARE bankrupt and that did not happen overnight. Their infrastructure was a disaster before the hurricane, at their own hands. There are over 10,000 Federal workers in Puerto Rico right now. Their harbors and airport have just been able to receive larger ships and planes. My guess is that Puerto Rico has to be completely rebuilt and the liberals want the American taxpayers to pay the bill AND do all the work. Democrats see another “disaster not to be wasted”.

Fine. What responsibility do we have to rebuild them? Isn’t there some cost sharing required? What about all the debt holders?

I wouldn’t mind helping them but if they are going to be ingrates let them rebuild their own island.

liberals are so stupid they think puerto ricans are mostly black or hispanic and that Trump is purposely letting them die because of it..

But the truth is Puerto Rico is 76% white.

*shush* but don’t tell the liberals, they seem to enjoy making fools of themselves :P

I am part Spanish, and my PR friends are white, so.

This is a Lib Dog Bitch, Trump already has 10,000 feds helping PR.
Most PR are Dems, but they are Americans, so we care about them a lot.

Problem is that Dems ran the place into debt, would not
accept many invites to become a state, and still they never wanted to be a Country on their own. Having it both ways, being American and getting goodies with paying full taxes was good for them.

While I want to see PR restored and the people safe, I am very impatient with their stringing Americans along and taking advantage of out good nature.

Time for PR to either be its own country or become a state. And no more freebees until they decide either way.

“if these people are to lazy to get up off there lazy arses and help themselves the let them die”

Right, the ordinary person can jump in and restore the country’s power and water infrastructures /s (before much else can happen). It appears to be too difficult for you to get off your fat butt and learn to spell.

Crucifying Bush over Katrina worked like a charm in corrupt, incompetent NOLA. Might as well dust that old playbook off for DJT, eh?

If Trump truly hated minorities, he would give puerto rico to haiti

In response, Trump should have some planes drop leaflets across the island telling folks who is responsible for the aid sitting on ships and in in shipyards instead of being moved to where it’s needed....

It’s fun watching the “Trump’s Katrina!” narrative collapse in real time.
