Trump finally says something about devastated Puerto Rico via Twitter after spending days raging against the NFL:

Texas & Florida are doing great but Puerto Rico, which was already suffering from broken infrastructure & massive debt, is in deep trouble...

...It's old electrical grid, which was in terrible shape, was devastated. Much of the Island was destroyed, with billions of dollars....

...owed to Wall Street and the banks which, sadly, must be dealt with. Food, water and medical are top priorities - and doing well.


Funny, I don't remember him ragging on Houston for their lack of land-use planning, zoning, etc. that exacerbated their flooding.

That's because those in Houston have mostly white skin, those in Puerto Rico don't, and white people MUST ALWAYS lecture brown skinned people on how inferior they are.
