OK, this will not stand unchallenged.

President Trump authorized USNS Comfort a full three days before the hurricane hit that island. It takes five days to fuel, load out and get the Comfort underway. Then it took days more to clear a dock, which due to that ship's design, is required for it to anchor and offload.

The President has done way more than he gets credit for for the people of Puerto Rico, and, IMO, more than they deserve.

They are sitting down there, whining that no one is helping them yet not one is lifting one finger to help themselves. No one is trying to clear the streets so that aid convoys can get through, no one is showing up to drive trucks with the supplies that were PRESTAGED there in anticipation of the disaster. And the press is gleefully lapping all this up as a chance to bash the President. (I will NEVER get tired of saying that!)

So take your CNN talking points and shove em, tw.
