President Trump Ignores Scowling San Juan Mayor at Puerto Rico Relief Meeting

Puerto Rico was devastated by Hurricane Irma and then Hurricane Maria a category 5 monster hurricane two weeks later.

Most of the leadership in Puerto Rico praised and thanked the government for the much needed aid.

But the far left San Juan Mayor Caren Yuliz Cruz Soto decided on Friday the best way to help those suffering was to go out on all of the liberal mainstream news outlets and trash President Trump.

San Juan Mayor: “I’m mad as hell because my people’s lives are at stake… We are dying, and you (Trump) are killing us with inefficiency”

The San Juan mayor accused FEMA and President Trump of offering her no help. She said this in front of a pallet of US aid.

On Saturday FOX News contributor Geraldo Rivera interviewed Mayor Cruz and then tweeted this.

Ouch!

#SanJuanMayor says residents are “dying,” & somehow @realDonaldTrump is to blame. I’m here. Who is dying? Why? Where? Let me help save them.

San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz is a staunch Democrat who supported Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election.

On Tuesday President Trump visited Puerto Rico to observe the hurricane damage and relief updates.

The far left San Juan Mayor is in the room scowling at the US president.

She looks annoyed and did not look at him.

President Trump shook Mayor Cruz’s hand when he entered the meeting.

….and we have the awkward handshake between Trump and San Juan Mayor Cruz … he didn’t address her in his remarks https://t.co/uZ5UBAZ0QV

Is this the same pendeja who was criticizing Trump a few days ago while standing in front of pallets of aid and supplies from the US?

Sí, fue la misma cabrona.

I heard that she told aide that she would not go to the planning/organizing meetings of the other community leaders with FEMA and US military because the FEMA Director is an “Americano.” She apparently doesn’t like non-Hispanics.

It is going to turn out that the best thing to happen to this Island will have been Hurricane Maria. The US will come in a rebuild the infrastructure beyond where it was prior (corruption not withstanding).

He isn't going to replace everyone's battered tin shack with a brand new concrete/steel mansion in the next 2 weeks???

So... how much was she paid by the DNC to try and make this a Katrina moment for Trump?

Hope the DNC put a crap-ton of money on it, because it failed. Mayor Soto is effectively Mayor Nagin. Useless, partisan, ineffective... a loser who should not be in a position of leadership.

“I’m mad as hell because my people’s lives are at stake… We are dying, and you (Trump) are killing us with inefficiency.”


Really? Well, Mayor Two-Faced Pendeja Cruz, maybe you ought to check out 2 things:

1) The docks on your sorry island, which are so full of containerized cargo from Uncle Sugar (courtesy of President Donald Trump and the rest of us) that it is hard to find space for more of them; and

2) The Puerto Rican chapter of the Teamsters union - you know, fellow Leftists who undoubtedly supported you, Two-Faced Pendeja Cruz, for Mayor, who are ON STRIKE because they are trying to extort more money for themselves DURING THIS CRISIS, and AT THE EXPENSE OF YOUR CONSTITUENTS (whom you profess to care for so much).

So, Mayor Two-Faced Pendeja Cruz, maybe you could get off of your Leftist soapbox, open your eyes and mind, and understand that this problem is not the fault of Donald Trump, but YOURS and that of YOUR SUPPORTERS.

BTW, I caught that “SOS” cap and similarly obnoxious T-shirt you were wearing yesterday or the day before. I’m not stupid - that required electrical power to make, electrical power that (again) YOUR CONSTITUENTS could have used for refrigeration, etc. So, AGAIN, you were grandstanding for political purposes AT THE EXPENSE OF YOUR CONSTITUENTS.

You scumbag.

Interesting, since a large number of PR residents are of German, French or even English extraction (and I’m willing to bet that she is too). She doesn’t like non-Dems. She’s a Bernie Dem, btw.

He never said it wasn’t a “real catastrophe”, doesn’t comparing it to a catastrophe make it also a catastrophe?
Having said that, the current death toll for Puerto Rico is 16 with 30 missing. Even if that number triples it still does not come close to the over 1,200 fatalities the victims of Katrina suffered. While it is a tragedy , the President was only referring to scale, that’s it. The President was stating a fact, like it or not.

You can’t really preposition material, it might get damaged by the hurricane.
