But Puerto Ricans Are NOT Part Of The White Supremacist Base. So Why Hurry. Not Part Of US.

Based on the slow response Trump Must Think That Puerto Rico is NOT part of the US. Well it is not rich and predominantly white as are a GOP strongholds. Of course it is not a state and neither is the US Virgin Islands. Of course Congress seems to be in no hurry to spend any money down there. Unless you are white or a GOPPER you are expected to lift yourself up.

If you look at the latest ACA repeal effort the GOP and Trump want to punish the blue states and reward the red states that already get more than their fair share of money. And you wonder what would happen if a blue state had a terrible catastrophe. Well, I guess the Sandy response says a lot. Puerto Rico may be in the same boat.

They need a military style resources to recover in the short term. Everything is really badly wrecked.

They really did learn from the Holocaust: don't send the undesirables to death camps where the blame can be clearly affixed -- let them die wherever they are of neglect and deny any responsibility.
