President Trump doesn't want to give Puerto Rico any more federal money for its recovery from Hurricane Maria, White House officials have told congressional appropriators and leadership. This is because he claims, without evidence, that the island’s government is using federal disaster relief money to pay off debt.

The big picture: Trump also told senior officials last month that he would like to claw back some of the federal money Congress has already set aside for Puerto Rico's disaster recovery, claiming mismanagement.

The White House didn't comment on this reporting.

8. That will kill in in Florida in 2020.

Ex felons voting and pissed off Puerto Rican voters, should wash out the effects of Cubans and angry Whites voting in Florida.

would have a bigger effect this year.

10. A lot of Puerto Ricans were not settled in, and the Florida Democratic Party did rather poor

outreach. Outreach need to start now to ex felons that will be eligible to vote and existing and new arrival Puerto Ricans.

11. Yes.. Strong OUTREACH is Required to

Counter the Endless Brainwashing.
