Tweet: "Puerto Rico is one of the most corrupt places on earth. Their political system is broken and their politicians are either Incompetent or Corrupt. Congress approved Billions of Dollars last time, more than anyplace else has ever gotten, and it is sent to Crooked Pols. No good!....
...And by the way, Im the best thing thats ever happened to Puerto Rico!"
There goes the Puerto Rican vote!!
Okay, sure.... But one could easily extend that to almost al of Central and South America. Why pick on Puerto Rico?
He’s gotta stop being so show and putting himself down :)
I wish I had 1/20th the confidence.
I was in the Philippines during the Marcos years.
Puerto Rico’s bad, but it isn’t even in he running.
A hurricane is approaching Puerto Rico within a few days, and he decides to Tweet this now? What good can come of this?
Those $hitholes are not part of the US, and their citizens should not be voting in 2020.
The government of Puerto Rico has been running a Ponzi Scheme for years.
New Mexico is deeply insulted...
Because they are a US territory the others are not. But so is Washington DC and they deserve the same scrutiny. lol
Our President should not be talking down about PR. He should be talking it up, to make the deal with Denmark. USVI and PR for Greenland. Deal of the century!
Because in a matter of hours they are gonna be requesting [more]federal aid and monies.
Like he ever had it in the first place. LOL
That neighborhood has been going downhill since 1493.
Trumpie, being one of us NYC street kids that grew up as hundreds of thousands of Puerto Ricans abandoned the island of PR to migrate to the northeast USA, New York City, New Jersey, Long Island, Connecticut, Florida, etc. to seek a better life and wider positive career opportunities. Trump, like many of us New Yorkers during the fifties and sixties mixed with these folks, and found out like with all types of people and cultures they were good & bad. However.....most of these folks were very pro-American and showed it, by joining our military by the thousands and fighting and dying for the USA.
The great people of Puerto Rico did not destroy their island, paradise, the people they elected, the Democrat Party raped, stole and kept them in constant poverty, while these multitudes of criminal Democrat Party scum & vermin humanity filled their pockets and lived in luxury. SAD, but so true!!! IMHO....however...if the PR folks ever got it right, Puerto Rico in a very short time would become the “Diamond Gem” of the Caribbean Basin, in both tourism, service industry and manufacturing.
I have worked at length with these folks, men & women and they are great folks, who work hard and enjoy life to the fullest. I wish them well....but, they must first and foremost “POLITICALLY” destroy the entire Democrat Party in their homeland, the Grand island of Puerto Rico!!! Puerto Ricans...support and vote for POTUS, Donald J. Trump...he is your best ally, friend and business partner...period!!!
Yes, but so what?
Advice to Trump. Go after leaders of places and not places. By going after places it reads as if there is not a good soul there and all the good souls there feel just as targeted as the politicians/leaders you intended to target.
2nd advice to Trump - your gist is right, but your target is wrong.
...And by the way, Im the best thing thats ever happened to Puerto Rico!"
OTOH if he can chide them into being traded for Greenland, Im on board.
Actually, I think the intended LOL here is that they dont get to vote in federal elections.
Exactly, and this time federal assistance should be conditioned on federal management and distribution aided by the military, to ensure supplies are going where they are needed.
