More confirmation that the San Juan Mayor Cruz has not even been participating in coordinating with the Federal relief efforts - so she doesn't know what they are doing or not doing - by choice - yet she comes out holding press conferences and interviews that are now confirmed to be purely partisan political events, and the press gives her credibility because she's saying negative things about the President. She's not even participating in coordinating with the Federal government, but yet they give her headlines that she's "mad as hell" at the lack of coordination and logistics. It's all complete nonsense. The President should tweet out this article - this needs to go viral. Let's all tweet this article, share it, etc.

“SHREDS”?
Is that worse than “DESTROYS”? I think it is, but it’s probably not as bad as “UTTERLY DESTROYS”.

There will be a very big political price to pay, for the leftist demagogues in the aftermath of hurricane Maria.

Mayor Cruz is exploiting the misery of her people for political slander and lies and ,to me, exemplifies the communist left that she represents. This is the type of off the wall over the top nonsense which has totally destroyed all credibility of the leftists on any matter. But one thing is Chrystal clear. We NEVER want these people as a state.

Typical lib, following the Katrina playbook. She can’t effectively lead, so she’s going to “get ahead of the issue” and point the finger of blame elsewhere. She’s in over her head, just like Nagin and Blanco.

The mayor of San Juan has learned from the mayor of Chicago that no crisis should go to waste without scoring political talking points and propaganda.

How can you subject your own people to incredible suffering and potential death over politics? If so, politics is the religion of the person. They believe the right to power surpasses the welfare of the people. islam does that too.

The liberal media is pounding President Trump over the suffering in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria.

The San Juan Mayor slammed President Trump for ignoring the suffering people of Puerto Rico.


And Trump is punching right back. Bush just sat there and took it as he and his administration were slandered with outright lies over Katrina. We finally, at long last, have a president willing to stand up against leftist BS.

The only thing Puerto Rico is good for is providing a buffer before the hurricanes enter the Gulf.

Give PR to Venezuela where lying hardcore leftist tyranny rules just the same way. Propaganda over the people at any cost or consequence. Our American Founders were truly great leaders even more appreciated now by us patriots as we witness such utter large scale rotgut unworthy leftists operate the world over.

The money quote, “The Teamsters Union is on strike”. A national emergency of epic proportions and the truck drivers are on strike. Same thing, in a way, when they had those LiveAid concerts back in the 1980’s, they got the food and supplies to Africa and no transport to get it where it needed to go.

FEMA and the rest of the government can’t do everything, explain that to the MSM.

Of course this has become political finger-pointing. That's what the democRATS do. They do a terrible job managing their cities, states and now this mayor in San Juan, so their response is always deflection and projection.

Deflect the obvious mismanagement on their own part and then project those failures onto the very people who are trying to help them, all to try and gain political advantage.

And in this case, the entire Left, is out to brand Trump as incompetent and ineffective and needs to be replaced.

They've got their James Brown look-alike, Maxine Waters, in the dressing room now, packing on the layers of makeup for her performance in bringing impeachment charges against Trump.

Even though Trump's administration's responses to two major disasters so far has been commendable, this third consecutive disaster, is the one the Left has chosen to peg as Trump's Katrina.

And with their friends in the media, this storyline will be run longer than CNN's Don Lemon and his missing-Malaysian-airline-swallowed-up-by-a-black-hole story.

Deflection and projection. Right out of the liberal handbook on how to play dirty politics.

I believe it’s legal for Trump to take control of the unions. He should send the military in and arrest the truckers then let the military deliver the goods.

This is the same playbook run by the Democrats of Louisiana for Hurricane Katrina, back in 2005.

New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin and Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco both pulled a sit-down strike, doing nothing except screaming about how President Bush was letting down the people of Louisiana.

With the enthusiastic help of the MSM and the rest of the Democrat party, they put it across. George W. Bush thought it was unseemly to fight back and set the record straight, and was thereby rewarded with a gigantic black eye.

I was amazed at Mayor Cruz’ whining that “there’s no leadership,” a phrase she repeated several times. Apparently Mayor Cruz doesn’t see the office of mayor as a leadership position.

It shows great decency of Trump to still offer every last shred of effort to help PR despite their elected Rep. being so offensive.

This crazed Marxist,who put her own ideological purity above the welfare of her people, is a Satanist
