It wasn't a "real catastrophe," he said.
Puerto Rico is an island, he said, as if few people knew. An island in the middle of a big ocean, he said.
"Big water," he said. "Ocean water."
The hurricane came at a bad time, he said. It kinda threw the 2019 Federal budget "out of whack," he said. Funny.
Puerto Rico sort of had it coming, he said.
Puerto Ricans are lazy, he said. "They want everything done for them." They. Them. Those people. You people.
Only sixteen dead, he said. "Sixteen versus literally thousands of people."
Except it was at least 4,000 people dead. It was in fact 70 times San Juan's official death toll. An impressive door-to-door study has proven it.
The United States virtually lost a territory in September 2017. Scores of sick and elderly citizens died in the days following the storm due to their inability to get medical attention, or because their closest healthcare provider was out of commission. Tens of thousands of citizens who lived in Puerto Rico, have moved to the mainland US because they can't make a living back home.
And no one cared. No one cared for many of the same reasons that Trump didn't care. Puerto Ricans are not seen as Americans.
It is past time for statehood.
And it is past time for this clown to rot in a federal prison. This fucking clown, who has gotten people killed.
