Trump tells Puerto Rico residents: ‘Do not believe the fake news’

President Trump warned Puerto Ricans to ignore the "fake news" media on Saturday as much of the island remains flooded and millions are without power and basic supplies.

In a series of tweets Saturday afternoon, Trump ripped "fake news critics" who are "working overtime" to attack his administration while "the people that truly matter" give his team high marks.

"To the people of Puerto Rico: Do not believe the #FakeNews!" Trump tweeted. "My Administration, Governor @RicardoRossello, and many others are working together to help the people of Puerto Rico in every way...#FakeNews critics are working overtime, but we're getting great marks from the people that truly matter!"

Having no bridges is no excuse for not distributing your supplies, you lazy Puerto Ricans.  Show some good old fashioned American initiative!

I think the majority of Puerto Rican residents believe their eyes seeing as though they have no way of watching the news!

I think the left wing mayor was taking a cheap political shot at Trump and is indeed an ingrate. Takes time to get the logistics in order and supplies moving, and then there is the problems of getting the roads cleared and the power back on.

How many days did military helicopters, fuel, and communications equipment sit unused instead of being deployed where they knew they would be needed?

Supply drops can be prepped in hours

and then there is the problems of getting the roads cleared and the power back on.

You have got to be kidding right? Newsflash, if the roads were cleared and power back on....then they wouldn't need assistance with supplies!

So you're admitting that the supplies couldn't be moved in a timely manner. And how many helicopters amd their support staff, fuel, etc can be rounded up and flown a thousand miles in just a day or two. Sorry, but the leftist mayor was totally out of bounds.
