Trump "Vows" To wipe out puerto ricos debt.....everyone is confused

Unless he somehow declares Puerto Rico a new state, (Which isnt going to happen and I dont think he knows that) He's just saying shit that he doesn't even know if he can do.

Everything is a photo op for the imaginary TV show Trump lives in his mind, where he's the star. Always about him and publicity. Such a pathetic little child.

Resulting in, Reuters: Puerto Rico benchmark bond drops to record low after Trump remark

(Reuters) - Puerto Rico’s benchmark general obligation bond tumbled to a record low price on Wednesday after U.S. President Donald Trump suggested the island’s massive debt load will have to be wiped out.

The bond due in July 2035, the island’s most recent benchmark debt issue, dropped by 10 cents to 34 cents on the dollar early on Wednesday. The bond has tumbled by more than 25 cents on the dollar since Hurricane Maria devastated the U.S. territory last month.

Isn't there a legitimate mental illness (I think named for the Truman Show?) that's basically this---that one's life is constantly being viewed by others?

Does he think he can just sign an executive order and our debt is wiped away? Cuz I’m pretty sure it doesn’t work that way

How many times has he filed for bankruptcy again?

 

[Z3M0G]

Heard the clips from his speech on CBC this morning... the guy is a fucking monster... no ability to show empathy at all... came off as annoyed that he needs to deal with PR at all...

What is your death count?"

That was revolting... I can't believe he flew there just so say shit like that...

 

[Amalthea]

That was revolting... I can't believe he flew there just so say shit like that...

Let's face it: He's propably pissed he didn't have the BIGGEST deathcount since he always needs the biggest numbers.

 

[PoorChoices]

How many times has he filed for bankruptcy again?

Personally? 0.

His businesses? 6

 

[Naughty_Doge]

OMFG
I'm tired of this orange shit stain. Someone please off him already.

 

[abundant]

Let's face it: He's propably pissed he didn't have the BIGGEST deathcount since he always needs the biggest numbers.

No, he's using a low deathcount as "proof" that the damage isn't as bad as it has been reported.

 

[Amalthea]

No, he's using a low deathcount as "proof" that the damage isn't as bad as it has been reported.

He still implies that the low numbers of deaths didn't make this worth his time and attention (until he got critizised for it).

Mexico plans aid for Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria

Suffering itself after two major earthquakes last month, Mexico plans to send aid including water and electricity experts to Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory reeling from the devastation of Hurricane Maria.

The gesture, announced by the Mexican government on Wednesday, follows an awkward series of exchanges between Mexico and the United States over emergency aid in recent weeks.

Mexico plans to send some 30 tons of bottled water, mosquito repellent and specialists in power generation, transmission and distribution from the state power utility, Mexico’s foreign ministry said in a statement.

The Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) team would work to mitigate the damage and assist in restoring power supply after Maria, the ministry said.

He's got nothing special. Just a run of the mill narcissist who happened to be born into a rich family.

It's mind-boggling that Trump makes Bush look like a Saint.

 

[Jzero]

I mean they are white so maybe?
Puerto Rico was a part of Spain for 400 years before we got it right around 1900. Spaniards are white just like the majority of Americans.

So are Mexicans but guess what? he still hates our guts.

Just 32% approve of how Trump is handling disaster relief in Puerto Rico. 49% disapprove.

AP: AP-NORC Poll: Low marks for Trump’s Puerto Rico response

WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans are more likely to disapprove than approve of President Donald Trump’s handling of the Puerto Rico hurricane relief effort.

According to a poll by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, just 32 percent approve of how Trump is handling disaster relief in the U.S. territory, while 49 percent disapprove.

“It took him how long to get to Puerto Rico?” said Bree Harris, a 25-year-old chef and Democrat from Los Angeles. She suspects Trump “didn’t even know that Puerto Rico was an island that was part of America. It’s embarrassing.”

Trump drew better marks for his handling of the recoveries after hurricanes Harvey and Irma. Forty-eight percent of Americans approve and just 27 percent disapprove of Trump’s handling of recoveries in U.S. states, including Texas and Florida.

The poll was conducted before Trump on Tuesday made his first trip to Puerto Rico, an island 1,000 miles from the mainland, after Hurricane Maria roared ashore Sept. 20 and knocked out all power. The federal response has drawn criticism and the administration has aggressively pushed back.

The poll includes responses from people in all states, but not in Puerto Rico or other U.S. territories.

The poll shows partisan divisions on Trump’s handling of disaster relief, but Republicans and Democrats alike are more likely to approve of Trump’s handling of the situation in Texas and Florida than in Puerto Rico.

Among Republicans, 76 percent approve of Trump’s disaster response stateside while 62 percent approve of how he’s handling the situation in Puerto Rico. Among Democrats, 30 percent approve of how Trump is handling the situations in Florida and Texas while just 11 percent approve of how he’s handling the situation in Puerto Rico.

Two in 10 whites, 4 in 10 Hispanics and nearly 6 in 10 African-Americans disapprove of the president’s response in U.S. states. But 4 in 10 whites, 6 in 10 Hispanics and nearly 8 in 10 blacks disapprove of the response in Puerto Rico.

Nearly 9 in 10 Democrats and 7 in 10 Republicans say the U.S. government has a major responsibility to help disaster victims in U.S. territories.

According to the survey, more than 4 in 10 Americans say they or their friends or family were seriously impacted by this year’s hurricanes, including 8 percent who say they were personally impacted and another 34 percent who say that friends or family members were seriously impacted.

More or less lines up with his base.

Well thank god he didn't use a potato launcher. This fucking guy...

 

[UrbanDandy]

Trump is a known germophobe, but that's no excuse to at least hand something over to a person in need.

(topical because of his bedside manner) Also, he was willing to let an 80-year-old man die on his property.

EDIT

Wait, his approval rating is still in the 30s? I thought it would've dipped into the 10s by now?

 

[Surfinn]

Nobody knew ego inflating PR could be this hard.

But I'm surprised his numbers aren't higher here I mean

Literally throwing towels at victims of a catastrophe and giving them golf trophies is good enough right?
