Because Trump and the governor didn’t want people to know it was a national disaster of epic proportions, which is why they yelled down the mayor of San Juan who begged for aid.

The Major of San Juan, has unattended areas, parks full of garbage and abandoned. I live in San Juan and I can attest to that. But, shows its image in the United States different from what it really is. we Puerto Ricans know the reality
-
I think we are totally in the dark here to be honest. Nobody has let the mainland know the truth
-
The country went through a disaster that we have not yet recovered from. the electrical system is vulnerable, there are still places that do not have light, despite the help that the USA has given, there is still a lot to be done.
-
I am so sorry Vivian. We have failed you & Puerto Rico. My family supported Jose Andres & Red Cross PR. Do you know any other charities or organisations we can support? I hope you & your family stays safe in the current Hurricane season
-
America has NOT failed Puerto Rico, they received $16 Billion from FEMA & hundreds on Millions from charities, Puerto Rican’s don’t even pay personal federal taxes to the U.S.A. but now complain about lack of help! Hurricane Maria was a natural disaster you can’t blame America
-
To my surprise, you have MAGA written in your profile.... America has spent over 300 billion a year in Afghanistan and Iraq, so 16 billion for our own province doesn’t seem too much if not entirely too little

The absurd difference can be traced to two simple words... "Harvard" and "estimate".

I bet you don’t even believe the dec 2017 report of 62 dead.

Because the
@POTUS doesn’t care about#PuertoRicans. He equates them to subhumans on an island somewhere, he doesn’t know where, who claim to be Americans. Trump has abandoned#PR and so has the@GOP.#VoteBlue#PuertoRicanDeathToll

This is sadly true... But no less disgusting each time it's proven
-
Indeed! My brain is on overload. There just aren’t enough bad words to describe Trump.

The Puerto Rican government didn't help with search and rescue
-
False!
-
Who was responsible for ground control , How much did the Puerto Rico help in recovery ?
-
Why the hell does it matter ? Aren't they AMERICANS? Did you ask the citizens of Cali or Florida or Texas that. Will you ask the People Hawaii that? We were responsible. America was responsible for helping AMERICANS and failed.
-
PR to s a territory of America, but they run their own country free from interference from us. They knew they had problems before the hurricane. This disaster just gave them the attention to highlight it and place the blame some where else. Hope this helps...
-
we have a real problem. It has nothing to do with the debt problem. There are people who have died because they do not have electricity in their homes. Many people with depression, others have died burned in their homes by using candles to not be in the dark.
-
I understand that , but really , Who put P Rico in debt ? THE PEOPLE OR THE government?
