I find it that good bit peculiar that the media will run with this 3000 number, but downplay or ignore the millions who die worldwide after strict gun control is implemented.

They took six month averages of deaths in PR and then compared that to rage six months after the hurricane and then said that since the number was 3000 higher it must be due to hurricane.

That's not correct. The deaths were lower in the 6 montths (2017-2018) following the hurricane than the same 6 month periods in previous years. But they estimated the number of people that left the island folowing the hurricane (around 250k), and then bumped the death number propoertionally higher.

“How many of the missing Just moved away?”

That’s what the rats really meant! /sarc

That 3000 number are the people no longer alive in PR due to the storm.

I was in a restaurant the other day and they didn’t give me a straw. I asked for one and calmly told the waitress that the whole straw thing was a total scam and to tell her manager to do some actual research. I then told her that had she told me there were no straws, I would be walking away immediately.

“We will just stay home and, let Florida go down the tubes as the socialist Democrats take over.”

Buy a pair of sharp kitchen shears, so that you can spend Election Day cutting off your noses to spite your faces.

Pres. Trump needs all the Republicans he can get, or there’s a good chance he will be impeached, not to mention the damage the Dims will do to his other, successful programs.

Complacency or some strange sense of revenge against squishy Republicans could cost us the House and maybe the Senate.

“Ron DeSantis & Rick Scott, you both should be ashamed of yourselves. POTUS, Donald J. Trump knows & loves Puerto Ricans from his New York City upbringing and his business dealings in Puerto Rico. . . .”

I am “. . . considering not voting for either of you come election day.”

I bought a Yard Sign for DeSantis. ($10 is a BIG donation for me as a widow on minimum Social Security.) I am ashamed to even put it in my yard. Wonder if I can return it????

It was orchestrated. Right now, the media are making the mayor of San Juan with roots in the isle of Lesbos a celebrity, because she hates Trump and is lying to destroy him.

We want names of the 3000 that died, age and cause.

AND the place where they are buried.

There better be individual death records, also.

There are idiots who are saying “that water needs to be returned to the bottler, so FEMA can get a refund”.

How STUPID are politicians today?

That water is no longer potable, I would bet. Only useful for flushing toilets.

Interesting that this huge pile of supplies escaped notice for over a year......More total INCOMPETENCE on the part of PR OFFICIALS. Someone should be prosecuted.

“We will just stay home and, let Florida go down the tubes as the socialist Democrats take over.”

That’s not rational, or honest.
