Puerto Rico is a desolate, desperate land


Millions of American citizens, Puerto Ricans, are trapped on an island with no water, food, homes, medical assistance, personal possessions, electricity, gasoline, or communications. They are in a deadly situation and, even though some small amount of help is there, most are left either praying for help, or giving up.

At this very moment, this is in the process of turning into one of the most immense disasters in American history.

Many of us can donate money, and/or supplies, but it's not nearly enough. What is needed is the full resources of the federal government to immediately dispatch planes and shiploads of water, food, shelters, doctors, medications, and tens of thousands of troops to help.

Yet, our so-called president is busy congratulating himself and giving himself an "A+" on how he's handled it. Thousands, perhaps tens of thousands could die in Puerto Rico because this grotesque monster in the White House is a total prick who doesn't give a shit about Puerto Rico.

This isn't about politics. This is about life and death. Yet, most of us are totally helpless to help Puerto Rico in a meaningful way. All we can do is watch this calamity unfold, while our president and politicians do nothing.

Puerto Rico is a socialist hell hole that you love. What is the problem?

I see Cyanose hasn't seen the NPR interview where the D Governor of PR spoke highly of Federal aid and President Trump in particular. DU's moles are sleeping on the job! :-)  :tongue:

Since DU-folk probably aren't that familiar with actual relief organizations, maybe the moles could make some suggestions:

https://catholiccharitiesusa.org/members/caritas-de-puerto-rico

https://give.salvationarmyusa.org/site/SPageServer?pagename=national_donation_form

I checked, but I didn't see any relief effort by the Freedom From Religion Foundation.

.... Or blm or antifart or CBC or ....
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

This isn't about politics...

Of course not, you cognitively dissonant DUmbass...   :whatever:
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840

Puerto Rico will be fine.  Maybe even better off.  Everything will be new.  Even the Ghettos will be new.

The citizens of PR are very fortunate this tragedy happened while President Trump is in control.  That last president, that democrat half-white guy or, God forbid, that democrat woman who tried to steal the presidency last November/December/January - would be using this as a prop by prolonging the misery to score political points about "climate change" and the hatefulness of the normal people of the USA.
