My heart goes out to Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria (with donation links

MissDefi, stop putting words in my mouth. Seriously, stop.

You.

Keep.

Doing.

It.

I never said that I blame "all of this" on the President. What I blame him for is his own personal reaction to the situation. I blame him, the person-- not the businessman or the politician, for failing American citizens by doing his job poorly. There is no "other side" to include in this as I am simply talking about the country's leader and his own words. I am exclusively criticizing his job performance as a leader in supporting his own citizens inadequately. If any President reacted the way he has, I would be shitting all over them as well. Trump sits there like he's fucking explaining what an island is to a kindergarten class, it's beyond insulting.

Some other points:

And for your information, stuff was coming in slow to Puerto Rico because of the lack of ships and manpower to move everything in a timely manner..

Yes, because we inadequately prepared our response. Unlike the heavy effort put toward Texas and Florida.

So they decided to temporarily lift the Jones Act.

Yes, as I said earlier, it was lifted over a week late. Unlike Texas and Florida who had it lifted immediately.

Congress wants to completely remove it (which might effect our economy and American Workers because it might may go to foreign companies like everything else did).

LOL, guess who has been raping Puerto Rico's economy for decades?

I don't know why they didn't fly stuff in. I see nothing about them flying anything in unless I am missing something.

I told you, it wasn't a priority.

I said it's everyone in government who is at fault.. I said we can't just solely blame it on on Trump

Again, I can most certainly blame Trump for his own personal reaction to the crisis. There is no argument about this.

Blame one person..do not see the bigger picture. blah blah blah..

To expand on this, you are really doing the same thing when you generalize with statements such as "the entire government is to blame." By this same token, you yourself, the voter who has participated in over 40 years of national development, is also to blame. To generalize is to promote ignorance. As we have seen, ignorance can be deadly.

This false equivalence of the "all sides" bullshit, is that now people won't even let you criticize the President on the grounds of his own office anymore. They immediately backpedal into this apologist stance, as if they're somehow being criticized for their voting choice. We are the President's employers. Above all, we must be critical-- it's imperative.
