a million w/ no running water
Complaint #1:
The 3.4 million population of Puerto Rico and the number of people currently without power. Maria devastated Puerto Rico’s already fragile electrical grid, cutting off power to 100 percent of the island.
Reality check list item:
Carlos Mercader, a spokesman for Puerto Rico’s governor, told PBS that in the hardest hit communities on the island, almost all of the houses have been destroyed. “80 or 90 percent of the homes are a complete disaster,” he said. “They are totally lost.”
Reality check list item:
Some 12,500 people fled their homes to ride out the storm in one of Puerto Rico’s 500 shelters. Given the extent of the damage to homes, Mercader said he expects many people will be forced to live out of the shelters for weeks to come.
Reality check list item:
It could take up to six months for Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, the island’s sole energy service provider, to restore power. (Complicating matters, the power authority is around $9 billion in debt.)
Reality check list item:
So if they don't live in San Juan or their cousin's farm ---they are in shelters.
Where do the complainers think electricity can be connected to?
90% of the homes gone.
90% of the folks have no electricity!

The families can renovate them, by adding doors, windows, "ventilation", etc.
Here's a really fancy one; but of course it's more expensive to do.

$74 billion - The amount of debt the economically troubled U.S. territory had before the storm, not including an additional $50 billion in pension liabilities.
$1 billion - The amount of damage already inflicted on Puerto Rico by Hurricane Irma, which skirted the island just two weeks ago.
$15 million -The woefully small size of Puerto Rico’s emergency fund.
What does that come out per capita?

So...would you suggest Trump pull a new power plant out of the Clinton foundation or rebuild and new water system out of thin air first ? It should only take a few hours to build a new power plant and
maybe a whole day to restore fresh water to a million people.....idiot
Since they do not have the money for doors, windows or ventilation now, why will they have it later? Or does Trump have to give it to them because of this lame idea? And you never addressed what will keep them from sinking into the mud, and bye the way what makes a cargo container on the ground immune to flooding?
U R Tupid
I will make a prediction:
Trump will use PR as a trade school to "train as you work" pet-project and rebuild the entire infrastructure ---then later another scandal can take shape when land speculators scoop up all the mortgages.

Again - he shouldn't give himself a "10" and talk about it like a job well done when there is a humanitarian crisis going on.
Pretty simple.
Again the infrastructure of Puerto Rico could be entirely rebuilt in a week...............as it does not really exist in the sense that we are used too

You act like pouring a concrete foundation is a mystery, that the common person isn't able to do.
Ok so most had power but it had to be, shall we say, less than reliable in the best of times.
Who are Buckly and Domer76 and can we watch when you consummate your man crush with them?
No they don't they control the powers of the Executive branch of the Federal Government including disaster relief, recovery, and preparedness, and Trump has done a better job in that respect as proven by the incontrovertible fact that more people died from a single category 2 under Obama compared to two consecutive Category fives under Trump.
Do you think the morons, haters, and Trumpsuckers here give a shit about these facts? Hell no. (sarcasm warning) PR is full of brown people. Brown people are lazy. They want our hard-earned money so they can keep being lazy. They already live in a hell-hole so who cares if it's even worse now? If their kids die there will be less lazy tax-dollar-stealing brown people. (/sarcasm)
See, that's how the fucktard Trumpsucking conshits "think" here.
I have the feeling that people in the continental U.S. affected by Harvey and Irma are faring far, far better. Thankfully for the humans of PR, these assholes are not in charge of sending aid and making sure that it is delivered.
What a fucking moron.
