Exactly. What's needed here is a little more Roberto Clemente and a lot less stompy-foot 4 year old girl antics.
Cora is good at what he does, manage 25 baseball players, but he is an ass personally. Roger Penske and Joey Logano was with Donald Trump last week...
Is there an accounting as to what Puerto Rico has spent the $11+B we’ve sent them already?
Cora must be very ignorant or captivated by the Communist mayor of San Juan. The US had a mighty presence in post-hurricane Puerto Rico, with huge supplies immediately sent in along with large numbers of FEMA and other personnel for rescue, recovery, and repair. The Navy had ships at every port city providing help. It is the Puerto Rican stevedore and trucker unions who failed to respond. It is the San Juan mayor who failed. It is some elements of the PR government who failed. The US did a great job in PR.

Go 
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 Rico’s 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 Rico’s 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 Rico’s 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.
Never watch. Don’t care.
Never watch. Don’t care.
You’re right. Cora is complaining about the wrong person. The ones who have held up recovery is the governor and the mayor of San Juan.
And on top of that, it’s not like elsewhere where you have road and rail networks to ship supplies into the affected areas. Puerto Rico is an island everything has to come by ship or plane
Blame the corrupt mayor of San Juan.
People like Alex Cora overlook one thing, nobody cares!
F the Yankees, F the Sox
Just noticed on the local news that Panama City voted 71% for Trump.
Hey, Alex! Who gives a flying Obama?
