There were other factors in play here. PR politicians stole a great amount of money and the infrastructure sucked long before Maria struck. Yes, the feds failed but they were not the only ones.

Are you kidding. Mach lives every second of his life hating Trump because Trump winning exposed Mach's ignorance on this board after he elevated himself to the board's superior leader position in preaching to all of us that supported Trump what absolute idiots and fools we were to think Trump had any chance of winning. I could pull the posts of his up to prove my point, but we have been asked not to do that. Anyway, who was exposed as a fool after the election?

DAMN YOU TRUMP...

Quote:Hundreds of thousands of water bottles meant for victims of Hurricane Maria are still sitting at a Puerto Rico airport — nearly a year after the deadly storm, according to a report.

A photo showing the bottles in boxes and covered in a blue tarp on a runway in Ceiba was shared widely on social media Tuesday evening.

To be fair---I used Yahoo News as my home page for ions. For some reason---I noticed they were literally filling my news feed with anti-Trump stories. So, I did something long over due and changed my home page. Still have no idea why they thought that crap would be attractive to me---but I can see how someone who doesn't realize what is going on might think Trump is the worst thing ever to happen to US based on his treatment by the Big Social Media Monopolies and the Lame Stream Media.

I am disappointed in the Trump attacks. They are simply missing the obvious. The attack should be something like:

Trump says this hurricane is bigger and more powerful than any other hurricane to hit the East coast.

That would offend New Yorkers who think Sandy was a big hurricane.

Models have taken a left turn and has South Carolina in its sights now.

Last I heard was at 7 this morning when they said when it hits it should take a SW turn but hadn't seen where it's now aiming for SC. Still will be devestating no matter the point of impact.

More than half of the workforce -- 54 percent -- that FEMA sent to Puerto Rico lacked proper training, according to U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO).

Most of the deaths blamed on Maria in Puerto Rico, according to researchers, resulted not from the physical impact of the hurricane, but rather because of the shortcomings in preparedness and response -- the lack of access to medical care; to dialysis treatment and diabetes medication, for example. Begnaud says there was not a single cot in a warehouse in Puerto Rico before Hurricane Maria struck.

You guys need to stop with the idolizing and get real. He's a disaster. Pence would be worse. He can't say five words without a lie. You are the problem because the base has not turned on him.

But what more? Nobody can say there is something that should have been done that wasn't. It's easy to say, "3000 people died, so Trump should have done more." It's hard to identify what that something more is. So far, I have not seen anyone come forth with any specifics. I think that's because there aren't any.

trump didn't believe puerto ricans had diabetes

Wow, turns out Trump might be a better tropical forecaster than the NHC.

I look forward to each morning's unhinged leftist meltdown.

I think his meltdown is partially due to the you can keep your pension they yanked from him. I think if anyone has trouble with math it might be him. So now he lashes out at anyone and everyone that is anti- Free **** Army.

The Free Shht Army I like that!

Is that an original Buffalo? If it is, you need to patent it.

This is Trump's Hurricane Katrina moment. The problem is with the governor of PR? Trump listened to him, but ignored the cries of help from the mayors. Trump still thinks the death count is 64, and not 3000.

Our Dear Leader thinks they did an underappreciated GREAT JOB! in Puerto Rico and he will get away with this lie because his base will not hold him accountable for the outright lie. He does have a lot in common with tinpot dictators. If he said he golfed a 27 on par 72 course like one of his dictator buddies you guys would believe it. You are the problem. His base is the problem because you let him lie and support him.

Our Dear Leader on huricanes

Well Mach, at least Our Dear Leader can spell the word Hurricane. It has two r's in it dear...

Forgive Mach. He's probably never had to deal with one of these. Just like us folks on the Gulf Coast have never had to deal with major winter storms.

Funny... it says your original post was edited after I made mine.

I normally don't point out spelling or grammar errors but I thought it was fitting since you just went after Mach for it.
