So far, the conversation about the upcoming Boston Red Sox visit to Donald Trumps White House has centered around the people of color who are skipping the event. The manager Alex Cora, a critic of the Trump administrations inexcusable treatment of Puerto Rico amid the devastation of Hurricane Maria in 2017, cited his home islands continuing troubles as his reason for opting out.

Hey, Jemele, why don’t black people understand that they are still slaves to the Democrat Party just as they always have been, and why don’t black people understand that they are being erased from America by their masters via abortion and being replaced via illegal immigration?
Seriously, Jemele, are y’all that dumb?
Not sure who is a worse “sports writer” her or David Zirin.
Different types of horrible. Jemele Hill, race-card baiting anti-white racist. Dave Zirin, hard core pinko Communist (I think he actually used to work for The Daily Worker).
The Atlantic is a website run by sportswriters who were laid-off by their big city daily papers and are desperate to keep alive the illusion that they are actually relevant to something.
Not this arrogant bitch again.
The only racists I see in this situation are those who are imposing racism (whatever that is supposed to mean) on those who decided to accept the White House invite.
I wonder who benefits the most from continuing to encourage black people to hate white people.
The situation in Florida needs to be addressed. Congress has effed it all up, itd be a great time for Trump to step in and straighten it out. Perfect opportunity to strengthen his position in Florida.
Indeed.
“Why Don’t White Athletes Understand What’s Wrong With Trump?
HOW RACIST IS THAT ?
I dunno. Maybe because they live in the REAL world rather than the make-believe world of Hollyweird and drugs?
“Why Dont White Athletes Understand Whats Wrong With Trump?”
The average northern European white person has an IQ of 100, and the average African-American has an IQ of 85. That’s about 2 full standard deviations below whites. So the question isn’t “what don’t whites understand?” it is “what don’t the black athletes understand?” Oh, and if you’re going to bring Hispanics into this, their average IQ is 89.

Just to make a correction. The site you are referring to is “The Athletic”. Hill is writing for the left wing rag “The Atlantic”.
Annual fed aid to PR, 21 billion per year
PR population 3.1 million
more then $6000 apiece for every man,women and child
Such incredible blindness to ones self in this broad.
She is a larger bigot than 99.9% of the bigots out there in La La land...
Adolph Hitler crazy actually.
But then I glanced at the byline "Jemele Hill" and had to shake my head as I thought;
Thanks. Misread the name on that.
Stupid narrative that needs to be flipped. Why don’t those of “color”,minorities etc not realize that President Trump is not a racist and has done more for ALL Americans than only a handful of former presidents have? The racism charges are absolutely shameful and sickening.
Why don’t black athletes understand what’s right with Trump?
Why don’t black athletes understand what’s wrong with Liberals, Democrats and Socialists?
Alex Cora is a dunce who should be railing about the ineffective and criminal bureaucrats running (ruining) Puerto Rico. A once Caribbean jewel turned into a 3rd world $hithole. Been there three times. Twice on cruises. 1st time, in awe of island as I played baseball there right out of college in the late 60’s. 1st cruise, got off the boat. 2nd time, stayed on the boat.
The real question is why are so many minorities liberal hacks.
I keep saying the real premise behind white this and white that is liberals and send are trying to pit whites as the new Jews, and so since Jew’s are persecuted so broadly then that must be how they feel about whites.

Hey Alex, what follows is some of the response from the mainland to P.R. under the Trump administration.
And we stand with Puerto Rico, and we are helping them to rebuild stronger and better than ever before. - President Donald J. Trump
HISTORIC RECOVERY EFFORT:
The Federal Government has helped lead a historic recovery effort in Puerto Rico in the year since Hurricane Maria hit.
FEMA has joined with Federal partners and the Government of Puerto Rico to undertake one of the largest post-disaster reconstruction efforts in United States history.
Never before has FEMA coordinated federal resources to rebuild an entire island of this size.
The Federal response to Hurricane Maria marked the largest and longest Federal response to a disaster in the history of the United States. This response included:
The longest sustained domestic air mission of food and water response in our history.
The largest disaster commodity distribution mission in United States history.
The largest disaster generator installation mission in United States history.
Billions in Federal funds have been dedicated for Puerto Rico, including:
$20 billion allocated by the Department of Housing and Urban Development for disaster-related community development grants to Puerto Rico, the largest ever.
$1.4 billion in federal grants approved for more than 462,000 homeowners and renters.
$3.2 billion in FEMA Public Assistance funding obligated.
$33 million in claims paid by the National Flood Insurance Program.
$1.85 billion in low-interest disaster loans from the Small Business Administration.
$8 million in disaster unemployment assistance for more than 9,000 survivors.
$802 million approved for FEMA housing assistance. (Total: $27.293 Billion)
ONE YEAR LATER:
Significant progress has been made over the last year to help Puerto Rico recover following the devastation of Hurricane Maria.
Following Hurricane Maria, FEMA was presented with unprecedented challenges as it responded to a Category 4 storm that disabled an entire island.
Puerto Ricos entire electrical grid failed following Hurricane Maria, but today power has been restored to 99.99 percent of customers able to receive an electrical connection.
Water systems were inoperable following Hurricane Maria, but today 99 percent of customers have had water restored.
Debris and 41,000 landslides shut down all but 400 miles of Puerto Ricos 16,700 miles of roads, but today roads are clear and traffic is moving.
Hurricane Maria knocked out 95 percent of cellular sites, but today 99.8 percent are operating.
PREPARING FOR FUTURE STORMS:
FEMA has worked to address lessons learned from Hurricane Maria and ensure the island is better prepared for future storms.
FEMA has made preparations that will better enable Puerto Rico to withstand future storms, and led an exercise to test Puerto Ricos capabilities and execution ahead of hurricane season.
FEMA deployed regional incident management assistance teams to support 78 municipalities in Puerto Rico in developing their own plans ahead of hurricane season.
Stockpiles have been increased in Puerto Rico, including, as of July 30, 2018, 17 times more water, 7 times more meals, and 7 times more generators compared to the same period in 2017.
More than 600 strategically located generators are in place to enable FEMA and the United States Army Corps of Engineers to maintain backup power capability during hurricane season.
Coño Alex, te ves pendejo.
What does race have to do with this? What a stupid article.
