The Country chokes up as a president ignores her people in Puerto Rico.

[sheshe2]

US citizens ignored for a week while he tweeted away in a feud with the NFL. Supplies sit on the docks undistributed. Where is the Army, where is the Navy mr president? Where is your support? Your first comments after trashing NFL players was to trash Puerto Rico for their deficient, you did this when they are starving and dying from lack of medicine and water. Half the Country has little food and water. Ninety percent no electricity. Sure, you can make it for awhile without much food yet water, you only have a few days. Caption on CNN tonight...the WH is confident that the supplies will arrive on time. Bully for you asshole, it is already to late for many. I watched a short video that said the US CITIZENS IN PUERTO RICO are using trash bags as body bags for their loved ones. You are far to late mr president. Wow, mr fucking president you finally decided to act after someone finally told you that they are US Citizens and not just like those brown Mexicans that are just murderers and rapists...your words not mine.

This is not just your Katrina, this is genocide.

We know you are an egotistical ass, unbalanced, soulless and ignorant. You do your supporters proud. The rest of the sane knows exactly who you are.



May you and yours roast in hell mr president. You have put us through ours...it is your time

1. Well said, dear sheshe!

Your words echo my own feelings.

[world wide wally]

2. I hope this gets hand delivered to the amber asshole in the White House.

[shenmue]

3. Indeed

[brer cat]

4. Righteous!

He deserves all the scorn heaped on his head.

[mcar]

5. 8 days

And they finally decide to act.

You are right, she. This is even worse than Katrina.

[sheshe2]

6. Irma came first.

09/07...60K without power. Debris would be shrapnel with Maria. They never had a chance when Maria hit full force and dead center. What did the president do? Nothing, absolutely nothing. What did Senate and House GOP do? Absolutely nothing. They are mom. I hate them with all my heart.

This is not Katrina, it is Genocide.

[mcar]

7. The Rs are bringing up a relief bill

In 2-4 weeks!

They passed a Harvey bill in a week or so. I haven't heard squat about Irma relief. Bastards.

[sheshe2]

8. I am laughing here...between tears.

2-4 weeks!!!! WTF!!!!

May they rot in hell. Blood. They all have blood on their hands as do their supporters. Guess they just built a border with PR...not supporting them is a border of racist hate. They declared that they should die. Can't make it any clearer than that.

9. I've posted variations on the following in response to other OPs on Puerto Rico.

I am so damn angry over the situation in Puerto Rico that I want to smash things! Trump gets up and brags about what a wonderful job HE is doing and nobody bothers to call him on it. This from a guy who probably didn't even know the Puerto Rico was a) an island and b) was part of the USA, and c) that Puerto Ricans are US Citizens by birth until somebody cued him in on it recently.

And the truth that nobody dares speak is that the reason that Puerto Rico is not getting aid like Florida or the Houston area is because the population isn't white!!!! So Trump doesn't give a shit! They aren't neo-Nazis, or White Supremacists, and (even worse) they can't vote for him, so he doesn't give a shit. He wouldn't even think about them if his advisors hadn't bullied him into talking about them. And Congress is going to adjourn on Friday without bothering to pass an aid bill. They got one for Texas, and one for Florida, but the GOP can't be bothered to pass a bill for Puerto Rico.

And the God Dammed MSM can't be bothered to even talk about it! Lets talk about Roger Stone, let's talk about Roy Moore, let's talk about Jared Kushner's email account, but for God's sake, let's not talk about a couple of hundred thousand American citizens who have no food, no water, no gasoline, no insulin, and are begging for help. No, we can't talk about that. Might not get as good ratings as some football player taking a knee!

And FINALLY, after more than a week, the Asshole in Chief FINALLY figures out that your need logistical support to move supplies that are piling up on the docks and that's not good enough, you have to get the contents to the people who need them. And, gee, just maybe, the Army might know something about that. And oh, they might need a hospital ship to help. For someone who theoretically watches TV hours a day, he has a real talent for missing the important stuff - like doctors in Puerto Rico talking about how the need supplies. Finally, after more than a week, Trump finally waives the Jones Act.

I am a pretty laid back person. I am pretty much non-violent. I try to love my neighbor. But I hate Trump with a visceral hatred like I have never hated anyone in my life!

OK, rant over. I have to go puke and mourn the country that I used to know.

[SharonAnn]

15. The other reason is they can't vote for president, so there's no advantage for him.

[Stonepounder]

19. Uh, I mentioned that in paragraph 2. :-)

[Girard442]

27. It's worse than that:

He's sending a loud and clear message to the Deplorables that they can count on him to mistreat non-whites.

[syringis]

10. He brought the lack of empathy...

...to the level of an art.

From day one, he kept behaving as the Hell's vomit he truly is.

This time, Trump lowered the bar so much that it must have reached the "very big ocean" bottom...

His own fellow citizens are in a true distress and all he could think of is the money they owe... MAGA !!!

EU gave 2 millions € Belgium, 1 Million €, the Belgian Red Cross 600.000 € and is collecting what people are donating, Netherland nearly 2 Millions from Government and people donating too, France, GB gave more than 40 Millions, and so it is all around Europe.
Governments are also providing food, water, other goods as trucks, planes, clothes, blankets,...

And it is not at all charity or whatever. It is a DUTY...Humans are in distress, as human we help. The same way we will get help if we need to...

The miscarriage's residue can get that???

[catbyte]

11. Hear, hear!!!!!! A truly righteous rant, sheshe2.

Brava!

[bdamomma]

12. sheshe2

genocide that is what it is.

Seems like those who don't believe in science or global warming are the perpetrators of catastrophic weather events like this. And of course Trump and his cohorts are all lying saying everything is going well.

Sickening POS, they are treating Americans who live in Puerto Rico inhumane.

[sheshe2]

14. He gives himself high fives.

I am so tired and I am have lost faith in our humanity.

[Me.]

13. Words Usually Don't Suffice

But yours did just fine

[sheshe2]

16. I am in despair, me.

No words left.

[Me.]

18. It's Shocking

As if they have determined there are throw-away people but as I've said before ....hold on

[sheshe2]

20. thank you, me.

[C Moon]

17. That's because he's not the president: he's a theif and a traitor.

[uponit7771]

22. +1, Vlad is happy Americans are suffering at his puppets hand

[C Moon]

23. +1

[SHRED]

21. That was good

[ehrnst]

24. HRC is calling him out directly. She's leading, not going away.

[sheshe2]

29. Thank you Hillary.

[NastyRiffraff]

25. Righteous OP, she

I cry every time I see video of the devastation and suffering in Puerto Rico. Tears of sorrow for the people there and rage at the so-called "president."

[sheshe2]

28. I feel the same way, NR.

I have the rage, but I also feel the despair. If he can kill US citizens there he can kill them anywhere now...and the GOP won't bat an eyelash or lift a finger to save us.

[meow2u3]

26. Righteous rant, sheshe

Say it louder and louder until it'll be impossible to ignore!

[sheshe2]

31. Thanks, meow.

I am a tad pissed off right now. Ha...just posted another one.
