Puerto Rico would be as down and out as Nicaragua or Cuba or Venezuela if it weren’t for being a U. S. territory. The socialists,like their founders, are ungrateful to the ones who have fed them.
The historical relationship between Puerto Rico and Washington is unfair and unAmerican, Rosselló said. It is certainly not a successful relationship.
Rosselló called on Trump to extend federal coverage for the housing restoration and clean-up that is still ongoing on the island.

The dummie insults Trump and then opens his hand. Im all for PR getting their independence from the US.
Perhaps we should just let go of Puerto Rico, and let it twist in the wind, so to speak.
Thats is my point exactly. I checked his twitter and last two tweets are 57 states and Puerto Rico. Meanwhile parts of North and South Carolina are underwater...
FEMA is handing out cash for funerals. So what do you get? Thousands of claims. I expect most of these 3000 were part of the natural death rate for Puerto Rico. But since cash can be had, they are all declared hurricane related, and will be as long as cash can be had. I doubt FEMA does much verification because that would be callous and racist. Much easier to just to pay the claims.
Obviously it's Trump's fault !
Arent these numbers then used to get relief funds from FEMA? Puerto Rico needs to be cut loose from the US. Their corruption is astounding.
These LIB LUNATICS in puerto rico are dishonest. Then, they have the gall to criticize President Trump for pointing out their lies. What corrupt liars and losers. The Hell with these chronic liars.
Maybe well need a Puerto RICO Act by the time this is over.
Sooo much corruption...
You got that right. Trump will never stop giving it to the real enemy of the people- the media and the left ( which are one and the same)
Really? Sounds like you're passing judgement with that statement governor.
No more money for Puerto Rico. Their corrupt government is responsible for a significant portion of the damage by failing to maintain adequate infrastucture. Following the hurricane it was corrupt PR officials who hoarded material sent by the US for the citizens. That witholding of necessary supplies is accountable for how many deaths?
Cast not thy pearls before swine lest they trample them under foot then turn on you to tear and rend you.
Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló said 12,000 people died in North Carolina - - yesterday - - from Hurricane Florence...
“””He’s pointing out how ‘academia’ (George Washington University) created these numbers out of estimates and models, something that has never been done before, and the Democratic Media Complex reported them as fact.”””
The Puerto Rico death count is nothing but another insurance policy conjured up by the anti-Trumpers with the intent of releasing the study when the next hurricane hit the USA so they could use it to damage Trump.
I have noticed in many reports about the Florence hurricane that they include “oh by the way, 3000 people died last year in Puerto Rico due to Trump and FEMA not doing their job’.
“””You know what this is all about? Flipping Florida.”””
Totally agree. The intent is to get the Puerto Ricans to vote. If a Puerto Rican lives in Puerto Rico, their vote is pretty much useless. But in Florida the Puerto Rican vote is very important for the Democrats.
That is why Ron DeSantis and Rick Scott have been quiet. No sense stirring up the Puerto Ricans who have moved here.
Over 6 months
They are counting people who died of heart attacks and other health conditions months after the hurricane as storm victims
As if its Trumps fault and OUR fault as taxpayers
