Puerto Rico Gov. Wanda Vazquez Garced on Tuesday threw her support behind President Trump’s bid for a second term and called on Puerto Ricans to cast their votes for him on Election Day.

“I ask all Puerto Ricans who are listening to go vote,” the governor said in an interview on Telemundo. “They have to go to vote, exercise their right to vote and evaluate who has represented being a person who thinks about Puerto Ricans and their needs at the most difficult moment. It is Donald Trump.”

According to the Puerto Rican newspaper El Nuevo Día, Vázquez Garced was scheduled to appear at a campaign event with Trump in central Florida last Friday, with the governor saying she had been invited to travel on Air Force One to hold a meeting on Puerto Rico.

So....what id PR becomes a state, and gets two senators. This Governor, and two of the last four, are Republicans. Why do we assume that PR’s two senators will be dems?

The irony will be that black and Hispanic voters save the country from Upper Middle class whites. All that GOP-e garbage that Hispanics won’t vote for us unless we open the borders wide.

Puerto Rico has voted against statehood every single time. The last time very few even bothered to turn up to vote.
Crying Chuck is talking through his nether regions when he keeps threatening to make Puerto Rico a state if Amy Barett is confirmed. He doesn't have the power to make Puerto Rico or anyone else state.

Trump is polling much higher now with Hispanics in Florida than he did in 2016.

Huge and even bigger because it was on Telemundo which is CNN in Spanish. This helps lots in Florida but also in other places
Think down ballot.

Hope so. Clinton crushed it and sent it to China.

Wonder how much one the dozen Clinton Foundations derivative made out on that deal?
