Now this is an accurate headline - not the “Trump slams Puerto Rico” narrative.

Excuse me if I am wrong, but wasn't it only a few months ago that Puerto Ricans were calling for independence from the USA by honoring the FALN terrorist Oscar Lopez Rivera at the Puerto Rican day parade? They had a lot of sponsors boycott, but that didn't stop a lot of Puerto Ricans showing up to honor this low life that the employee of the Muslim brotherhood and worst POTUS in US history B. Hussein Obama pardoned.

Here's is Puerto Rican City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito honoring the terrorist who killed people in the name of Puerto Rican independence, yet Melissa Mark-Viverito is bashing Trump now as well. Oh, so NOW it's a different story. First you want independence from the USA, oh but not right now, now you changed your mind, right? Effin b*tch.

Here they are honoring him like he's a martyr...

Some of Riveras handiwork....

Volunteers were out by the 10,000's working to help clear roadways and rescue needy before the rain stopped and the winds slowed in Texas. Same in Florida.

Notice the same reaction in Puerto Rico and New Orleans with Katrina victims. Let me see if I can figure out the common denominator. Anyone....Anyone???

The USA has 10,000 Rescue workers in Puerto Rico and can't get local police to show up and can't get truck drivers to help move supplies from the airport. Reports are that the people have not begun to clean up the streets and passages 10 days after the storm passed.

Puerto Rico has 40% unemployment. 1/3 of the people work for the government. They are by design New York South.

There is a reason that Puerto Rico is in so much debt and that tells me a lot about the people of Puerto Rico. For years the P.R. people have looked to the US taxpayers to bail them out. That same attitude is shown by the Mayor of San Juan who attacks Trump for not doing “anything” more or less. She refuses to see the inability to distribute food, water, medicine, etc., because so many roads/ bridges, etc. are down or closed. There is little electric power to provide communication services. YET this mayor attacks Trump as those he is responsible for all this and hasn’t done anything.

President Trump Speaks and Tweets the TRUTH!

PR is nothing other than a liability to the United States, they haven’t contributed anything to the Nation. If they don’t like all the support that Trump has given and is giving, - then President Trump should pull his FEMA team out immediately! Ingratitude is the inherent trait from these “Leeches”, and the Nation has absolutely no obligation what-so-ever... to help these PR ignoramuses!

After seeing ABC news last night you would think that PR has been blown back into the DARK AGES and no one is doing anything to help them. You would think a country in Hurricane Alley would at least have plans for such a thing.

So, where are all those PR Independence movements now! Step up to the plate!

My text to Dad in Puerto Rico this morning and his reply about the San Juan Mayor vs. Trump exchanges. He lives in Old San Juan and knows the Mayor very well.

ME: “What do you think of Yulin’s comment about Trump and the US response, Dad?”

DAD’S REPLY: “Very unbecoming! In Life, there must always be elegance!! The locals are tired and frustrated! This is without reason! But you must behave under stress with elegance! Her mistake!!”

Once again, Our President has drawn back the curtain for all of us to see the problems of P.R....

Not the amount of people from FEMA, not the amount of food and aid, not the amount of Military there to help, not the amount of volunteers from Samaritan Church to aid, comfort and help...

NO, it's this senseless Cruz Mayor who can't keep her yap shut long enough to help her own people, wears a shirt that puts all of us here who are helping, loading trucks with water, food, blankets, taking in animals they find for us to find good homes for them (I feel sorrier for the animals than I do for the humans at this point)...but yet here she is yapping like a typical lib that no one is helping all the while the UNION there is preventing anyone to unload the ships, trucks etc. that are there for the good of the people, the UNIONS that want MONEY to feed their humans...

Well I did have sympathy for them, but guess what, I don't now...pack up the food, the blankets, the water, the whatever is loaded on the ships, trucks, bring the volunteers back with the animals and then tell the humans there: ‘GO TO HELL’!!!

There is no situation too dire that won’t be exploited, no lie that’s too tall, no calumny that’s too over-the-top, for a Rat.

Thank goodness for Trump on twitter. If this was GWB, there would have been no response whatsoever to the lies.

This is the type of blowback that was needed after Katrina because the failures there were a result of the residents doing nothing to prepare, poor leadership of the Louisiana Democrat Governor and corrupt Democrat Mayor of New Orleans!

The poor PR people brainwashed in progressive thought think that the USA should literally deliver to their doorstep vital provision...

If we don’t we are racist...

Unbelievable the unions are holding the very lives of thousands of people to get a bigger piece of the pie...

Disgusting...and evil..

All the ports are devastated. They managed to get one open, just barely. Evidently the mayor wants someone to click their glass slippers together three times and make it all better

The Democrats are really desperate to construct some sort of "Katrina redux" out of these hurricanes. They were stymied in Texas and Florida with the first two but they now see an opportunity with the third hurricane in Puerto Rico.

This is why they are coaching the mayor there to turn on Trump and start giving media interviews that Trump is not acting fast enough and insinuating that perhaps he is giving the people of Puerto Rico short shrift because he does not like Hispanic people or some such nonsense.

Meanwhile, the media is staked out there, sitting on their hands looking for opportunities to show that Trump is a mean and uncaring president and any PR public official that wants to speak out against Trump will be immediately surrounded by a dozen cameras held by well-fed and well-sheltered media types.

It's not going to work of course. President Trump and Melania will be there in a few days and the whole world will see first-hand not only the extent of the devastation but also the massive U.S. led efforts that have already been in place there for many days, beginning almost immediately after the hurricane.

The Democrats will be disappointed again because what they really want to portray is an island nation left to fend for itself while Trump sits in Washington eating double scoops of ice cream.

You would think that out of precaution, these island communities would have underground waterproof bunkers where they could store massive amounts of water and basic long lasting emergency food IN PREPARATION for inevitable hurricanes and floods, and that they would do so days in advance because they know days in advance that disaster may very likely hit them. If the hurricane misses- sell the basic food and water-

They knew well in advance that disaster was coming and did very little to prepare
