        The Jones Act is a century-old shipping law that Puerto Rican officials said was hindering efforts to get supplies to the island

        So, someone finally managed to: (a) explain the Jones Act in 4th grade terms; and (b) convince POTUS that Puerto Rico is part of the USA.

        More like: convince @POTUS that the danger to American citizens outweighs the shipping industry’s financial interests. He knew what it was.

        Respectfully disagree. Based on his record, he hasn't shown a capacity to understand beyond a rudimentary "bad for shipping."

        Yes, I know. I don't think our positions are inconsistent, Bobby. Just two sides of the same (unfortunate) coin.

        It would be great if Trump did the right thing the first time instead of being forced to be kind based on everyone's outrage

        Shame on Trump for his negligence. Gross disregard for fellow citizens. Let's hope ships will not be too late getting there.
