      The toll taken on Puerto Rico became evident immediately: total destruction of an electrical grid and telecommunication services, and an economic cost of nearly $140 billion. http://abcn.ws/2NnxwSp pic.twitter.com/QOd8fgg2vL

          That electrical grid was only operating at 30% before the storm. What about corruption?

          Detroit of the Caribbean.. messed up by Democrats for many years. All employees over paid, and yet the people are not taken care of. They voted for it, they should live it.

          Curious what was the state of their electric grid previous to the hurricane? Post hurricane theyve gotten significant upgrades and repairs that were needed for a long time. This point gets lost in the fog of the politics of PR.

          The absolute preparedness for the entire Island depended on its local government who have ignored the pleas of its people & the safety of its constituents. Now they want to shame and blame President Trump. Own Up P.R. Democrats !!!
