President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump are in Puerto Rico to view the damage from Hurricane Maria. Trump uses the occasion to congratulate the government on how wonderful of a job they are doing.
he spent 17 minutes giving a self congratulatory speech to him and his own assets and spoke absolutely no compassionate or sympathetic words to the people of puerto rico. what a sick man.
So basically this was a meet & greet? I didn't hear 45 say anything about expediting aide to the areas that are still incommunicado. If I were in PR, or had family in PR I would be so disappointed. I"m a citizen and I am horrified by the lack of any plan being laid out to help people have hope that help was coming. :-(
Roz Wynn for one thing you don't speak for PR. Second, he is doing more for them than any other president would have done. Third he have came through for every crisis we have had so far faster than the past two presidents before. The same two presidents who run and help people from over seas before they help those here in the U.S. You know, the things everyone complained about for years. Taking days and weeks to help people in your own back yard but can go help someone half way around the world with aid? You all are so far full of hate you can't even see the good things this man is doing
I believe it us great that he was praising everyone for their job. Now, not once did he say how he will be helping the Puerto Rican community. He is just talking about past hurricanes. How is he going to provide for the people of Puerto Rico? This country needs a leader who solves..
This was an "incredible" meeting in PR. What an "incredible" job our Coast Gaurd, Navy, FEMA, Airforce did here and saving 16,000 lives in Texas. All they did was not only "dangerous" it was "expensive". I feel like he was hint dropping.
Every public appearance is like an awards show. Is this the only thing he knows? Stats? Bragging? Ugh The person in the room that knows the real problems of the people isn't the backside kissing congresswoman , Jennifer, .. its Carmen Yulin Cruz! She is telling the truth and they(he) doesn't want to hear it. Im so tired of it.
Thank god. I've never seen a president so genuine and uplifting. He wants to shake everybody's hand and tell them that they are great, and he means it. He's brining positive spirits; exactly what we need Thank you!
So he congratulated all "his" people and the people saying good things about him then talks about the budget with Puerto Rico and other hurricanes in other states and how "his" people has worked in other states. I doubt these people in Puerto Rico with this horrible disaster care about hearing about the other hurricanes in other states when they are still in need, this was nothing but a feel good conference for him. How can anybody think this was the best things to say to these people, our people. I hate speaking negatively about our president but good god he's just to much, everything is about him and that's so wrong it should be about the people.
He got worse didn't he. Disgusting pile of human waste. Put the U.S. through hell. Divided our whole nation. And we are still trying to recover from the damage he has done. Fast forward this is year 2022.
Damn Im in coast guard but they didn’t send me to my home country. I was so mad. Got to give thanks to my partners Rodriguez Perez Johnson Tucker Mendez Melendez Rivera Thanks for letting me know how my family is. Really appreciate it and blessings to u guys
He's literally worse than George Bush and I hated the way he handled Katrina. Can't help but notice how Trump said "your people", then cleaned it up and said "our people". Guess we see how he feels about the people of Puerto Rico. Kinda reminds me of when George Bush, who is from Texas, referred to New Orleans as "your part of the world" as if it were a foreign country and not one state away from his home state.
I tried, but I just cannot stomach the sight or sound of this person (?). Of course, totally disrespects his wife. Well, she is paying for the bed she chose to lie in. We usually deserve the consequences of our choices.
This disgusting human being put our country through hell. Glad he is out of office and never holds a position of power Possibly now he gets locked up in a federal prison and out of our lives. He has done enough damage.
I think hating Trump is like owning the apple earphones back when it first came out, everybody wanted one. The guy really is commending everybody for the work they're doing, like a good CEO would do, and what most people in the comments section are just negative. It's your country guys, you can do more than hate and be negative. The amount of disrespect towards this man is abysmal. Just saying.
I don't know if you work at all or even what you do for a living, but bosses, HODs always say good job or well done or keep up the good work to their employees all the time to keep moral up and to encourage them. Cheerleaders and team supporters cheer their teams at the game while they're playing. To say its not done to fit your narrative only hurts your argument. Just so you know, I'm not American I'm just looking from outside and saying what I see. Commending people for working isn't a bad thing. I'm sure if the guy caught a bullet for someone y'all will say he should have caught all the bullets ever fired in the US of A. Just saying.
No it's not my country, thank god. And respect is earned you idiot. You can't just congratulate yourself and expect everyone to respect you. Trump is the biggest fucking moron. He "knew" he was asking the Air Force rep instead of the Coast Guard, said Puerto Rico is "an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water" and had the nerve to say that rescue efforts have "thrown the budget out of whack". Need I say more??? And this is just in the past fortnight, let alone his whole presidency!
AxelingHdh572 Fbxndhdhjsd Better than Hillary, hell the Clinton Foundation never used a bit of the Billions of donated dollars to help Haiti, do you think she gave a shit about about you...plus actually look at what Trump has done in the past, and so far in office...he put up a homeless black lady off the streets and put her up in Trump Towers and she's still there, Jennifer Hutson after her family members were killed Trump put her in Trump Towers to get her away from the vultures called the MSM. Trump spent 3 million of his own money to finish a ice skating rink in Central Park, donated it all, after Mayor Brumberg wasted 7 million of New York tax payers money, Trump completed it at no cost to the city. Look it all up, and you think Trump is there just to get a pat on the back. Well, I 'm here to say, I'm happy he's my President. But you sir are a piece of dog shit.
Wow, many of you people commenting here are so full of hate it's no wonder we have so much division in this great nation. Stop hating. Trump is trying at least as hard and as well as any of our past "leaders." And ALL situations are very different and NONE of them can be compared, equally.
At around 15:00 you see Melania talking with the blonde woman sitting next to her. My guess was a discussion about the death counting and glad handing.
Could you please say something that has content. Can you speak in a full sentence can you talk about something besides how great all these people are and how great you are and what a great job you're doing and what a great job they're doing. I'm sure the Puerto Ricans are really interested in these people they need to know who these people are in order to survive right. Just do your job.
First time I ever see a president giving all the credit to our us military...Thank you 😊 for caring and taking time with the people,Donald trump,,I'm glad to have you as president God bless you always...Love Kim.
How this man could get so much hate is just insane. People are desperate to hate him. They want to hate him because it makes them feel good about themselves if they label a bad guy and go out to get him. He's shaking everyone's hand and talks to each and every one of them. Everything he said in the speech made sense. He is here to help. He was smiling the whole time and trying to make people feel better.
He makes it sound like an award show, that moment when the actor thanks the rest of the cast and the crew to shine even more. My God, what a waste! Also, I never thought I would come to dislike the word "tremendous". Won't use until long after this presidency will be over!
What happens if another hurricane hits Puerto Rico next week or next year ? Trump wants to open up all the country clubs in Puerto Rico so that he can play a game of golf.
You could never please the ungrateful. Funny, they criticise but they sacrifice nothing. Michael Moore for instance never served a day in the military but criticizes those who serve
What is going on? There are people in Houton and in Puerto Rico who say they are not doing so well. Houston gets a jello in the morning or one small item like that each morning and no more food for the day according to people who are putting up live video's from there. I just watched a video about fema jail barges with the Puerto Rico residents being shipped out on them. What is going on? Many are saying they lost homes in Houston due to neglegance they didn't give a warning to the residence to prepare they told them at 8pm about the releasing of the dam which was opening up at midnight so that is only 4 hrs of notice and everything is closed by that time how can anyone prepare or pack anything or salvage ANY OF THEIR BELONGINGS IN THAT AMOUNT OF TIME? As many of us know we have the ability to create these storms or should I say the ONES WHO HAVE ALL THE MONEY AND MUCH CONTROL? They do not like our President and I believe they are doing this on purpose either to him and us to get their way as a tantrum and that is the better scenario the other one would be he is aware and going along with it or it is other countries that are mad using weather wars. I know they had earth quake wars some years ago I followed it on RSOE Edis and I am here to say it could not have been more obvious. This is scary very scary. Our food is crap or should I say our Produce is always rotted and no good from walmart. NEVER FRESH NEVER. It looks like it was already used on someone elses table. The produce is all knicked up bruised and expired even some things are molded already or liquified and black. They use bees wax and special lighting to make it look good but it is NOT AT ALL further it now is beginning to look even more strange. The lettuce has been looking see through in most of it. This world is near its end go to Jesus now get the Holy Ghost and baptized in Jesus name and live by the bible obey the Lord and he will lead us out of the way of the enemy and all these disasters. He will protect His people it is in the bible that there could be a storm all around you and not fall at your house just live for Him so He can protect you because the enemy (satan) is angry and causing a lot of trouble not to mention God's wrath.
I like the fact that he said “Your people, your island, your governor, your your your” I thought it was “US, WE, OUR” smh... just sad very sad. And how can he compare any state with each other or compare our island to any disaster. We have all been going through it. Texas, Virgin Island, Florida and Puerto Rico. We are all ONE NATION UNDER GOD INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL..
I think 95% of negative comments on this video did not watch the video. And the other 5% of negative comments already hated trump anyway and they watched the video for the sole purpose of finding something ridiculous to pick on.
You just admitted you think he's a piece of shit for "ridiculous" reasons. Ridiculous means deserving of mockery. Your reasons for thinking he's bad are deserving of mockery. That was my point.
I think people are missing the point. Most of the good things the military does goes unnoticed; they're not looking for praise in the first place. Most enlistment contracts are based on volunteering anyway. No diploma, No contract. How many high school drop outs help their community? How many think on a national level? The president was never in the military. She's not a first responder to crisis situations. Her job is to shine light on situations that need our immediate attention, and things that "could" be better. If she brings the people together in a common interest then she's doing her job. (that love/hate relationship gets put on hold when there's a job to do). Plenty high ranking officials in politics need to be pampered and have their asses kissed before hand. You make your superiors look good, they take care of you (well, the good ones anyway). Do it regardless, you're a volunteer that's knows better....for a sense of community, and the greater good. Finally starting to look political, but that's not a bad thing. She would look better with a local historian briefing and projected future endeavors outcomes, before hand. History is your friend POTUS Goggle can help you.
I'm trying to find the minute where he says that "it doesn't matter that 17 puertoricans died" or that "they are hurting the budget", this is what I heard through the radio stations, of course all sponsored by univision. I'm still waiting to hear that exactly, fucking pathetic!
He shouldn't have thrown paper towels at those people to catch...my grandmother taught me not to throw anything at anyone it's disrespectful.. Those people are without homes... and he threw paper towels at them.. He needs to go to etiquette school.
What did he say insulting? That katrina was far worst? Well, yeah we should be relieved that our island wasn't hit as hard and survived... Dejen el complejo
