Wishing Trump would make an appearance down there between now and the holidays. Let everyone see the reaction he would get from the people, and drive past some of the places that have led to the “Island of Garbage” comments. Let people on the Mainland see that that joke was based on reality. Meet with some of his supporters, and develop some positive solutions. If he puts the right people in charge, could be yet another example how other politicians just talk about things, but he takes action.

Didn't Puerto Rico elect a Republican Governor?

Yes, they did. Jenniffer Colon was just elected and is a member of the Republican Party.

Great to hear, just goes against the media and what they were trying to portray.

The Island of Garbage comment, I hope the island will clean it up if that is what the island is full of. When I lived in the Philippines, the rivers, the bay, etc were full of trash. Definitely disgusting. When Duterte was elected (sort of reminded me of Trump), he cleaned much of that up. I am sure there are pockets of trash though still there. He also cleaned up a lot of corruption that was leading to poor infrastructure.

Hopefully the new Governor can do that same.

We have the best puerto ricans, do we not?
