The US Government’s response to the devastation caused in Puerto Rico by Hurricane María has been a disaster. And when one thinks our president can’t be more callous he surprises us.
Hurricane María is becoming a humanitarian crisis for Puerto Rico because of the inadequate responses of the federal and state authorities. But Donald Trump has been praising his response and blaming everyone else, including the big water and the ocean, for the disaster. Today he went even farther calling Puerto Rican leaders, workers and everybody in the island lazy
According to the president, “they want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort”. Puerto Rico’s government response has been less than stellar (mediocre I shoud say). But nobody can deny that THE PEOPLE in the island have been working hard and together even while they struggle for survival. That’s true heroism.
