Spain had no lawful authority to cede Puerto Rico to the US.
Something tells me you know as much about the PRNP as you know about the dark side of the moon.
Personally I have a problem with European nations gifting the US other nations.
Puerto Rico like Panama and the Philippines should be independent.
To hell with democrat land grabbers.
Re: Spain - I do agree that the cession of Puerto Rico to the U.S. was done without the consent of the people at the time, since Puerto Rico was by then a full fledged Autonomous Province of Spain.
Re: Puerto Rico Nationalist Party - I’ve lived in Puerto Rico all my life except for my years in the U.S. Army. There’s no Nationalist Party to speak of in Puerto Rico and there hasn’t been since the last of the 50s Congress shooters died. You might be talking about the Puerto Rico Independence Party, which usually garners less than 5% of the vote in our elections. That one is also so dead that its maximum leader, Ruben Berrios, lives in Orlando, Florida!
