What kind of deranged person says a response was great when people had no power for months?

Where 3000 people perished and by some accounts many more? Something is desperately wrong with this guy. We have got to get rid of every last traitor protecting the psychotic animal occupying the White House.

He'll blow smoke up any ass, any where, any occasion if it builds his brand.

It's pathological. He literally cannot stop himself from bragging and lying.

When he's blowing smoke up Kim Jong Un's ass, I think he's knows he's lying. Or when he called HRC "Madame Secretary" during the Debates, and said "Is that OK? I want you to be very happy". Liar.

When he's saying he helped clear WTC rubble, he believes it. Still a liar, but Pathological.

He has a Personality Disorder and is unfit to be POTUS.

an extra crappy way of saying it.

He will never admit he or anyone connected to him ever did anything wrong or failed. No matter how offensive the BS he has to employ in his denial is.

First, many people really still do not understand that these people are American citizens.
They also have this perception that they are all on welfare that we pay for.
They believe that there was no electricity or “infrastructure” and “now they want us to pay to build roads that they never had.”
I said that I’ve been there close to 20 times and their airports, roads, signage, and electricity did not seem to ever be an issue. Of course, then there was disbelief that I have been there, after I posted, “Do you think they lived in huts, too?” My ex-husband’s family was originally from Spain. They moved to Puerto Rico for one generation and then moved here. Many moved back when they retired. We were together for 30 years and visited at least once a year, every year, to visit his grandmother. Never had an issue with power, roads, or crime, although she lived near San Juan, which is prone to robbery, as is Old San Juan where pick-picketers target cruise ship guests. They can say whatever they want, because apparently they think the island is like some third world country. And the rest soak it up. There are two cases of fraud investigations. One from 2012-14 and one in 2016. They insist it was San Juan’s mayor. Now you know they aren’t reading up on the news in Puerto Rico, so who is feeding them this line of bull?
The lying. The lying is killing us. And I am at the point where I don’t know what to do. They refuse to hear. They don’t want to believe. How can our leaders just lie to the American people and no one calls them out? This Puerto Rico thing has me going insane, and you can never, ever tell me that it’s not about color or voters. Maybe I’m as bad as they are, but I will never believe that. I’m beyond done. If he gets re-elected, I swear I am moving my pet hotel overseas and I’ll stay there. I hear they are quite popular in Great Britain.

You cannot argue with that level of stupidity or willful ignorance. They just dig in all the more.

about first hand or from any related experience or even studying learned sources just some made up bs that keeps them happy but unenlightened . That's any subject
I try to avoid any annoying fools once identified and I am sure the RW ones are extra special plus you know what it's about, and why they don't believe you about PR

Their responses were based on total fabrication. One guy said, “Puerto Rico isn’t just all-inclusive resorts.” I don’t believe Puerto Rico HAS all-inclusive resorts. When I mentioned that I always stayed with friends or relatives away from the touristy area, and it was always lovely, but we also always ventured to other parts of the island for a few days, they asked where. I mentioned locations all around the island, but it was obvious they don’t even understand the size of the island. My grandmother-in-law would get upset, but said she would let us go away for a few days because, “I want to be a great grandmother. You need privacy.” Half of it was because she didn’t believe in air conditioning and “our” room did not have a cross-breeze. It was like trying to sleep in hell. So we would escape for a few days to somewhere with air. I’ve been all over the island several times and even to Viequez, a small island of Puerto Rico’s that is mostly used by the military. We stayed in an awesome hacienda, but apparently the island has been discovered because the prices now are outrageous. Still, you can watch wild ponies on the beach from your balcony, so...
Their responses were showing that they think Puerto Rico is a third world country that we just take care of. Many responded with, “Maybe their government should have done more,” to which I replied, “Yes, maybe they should have. Their government is in Washington DC if you’d like to write them a letter.”
