5. Indeed! Don't forget about that group - long ignored and poorly served in Puerto Rico.

That would be hurricane-ravaged Puerto Rico. And trump threw a few rolls of paper towels at them and called that "serving their needs".

Indeed! As I watched the coverage yesterday, with all those students and parents and friends rallying for change, I couldn't help thinking - precious few of those kids are gonna be voting for you, republi-CONS! They're gonna want to know how much money you've taken from the NRA and how much you're working for the NRA and not for THEM. They're not gonna forget. And most of them, being of high school age, are at or approaching voting age. That's another whole new crop of new voters who WON'T be voting GOP!
