He had serious doubts about Hawaii being a state, and felt that Hawaii's birth certificate for Obama or any citizen of that state, is even part of the United States. Bet he has no clue abut Saipan either..

little man that he is, major league football should organize and carry out a high profile, heavily publicized Puerto Rico relief effort ... since President Tiny-Hands isn't going to do anything. I'd contribute. Hell, I'd even start watching football again.

He did remind them of their debts to Wall Street. That's something, right? I know if MY home were destroyed, the first person I'd want to see is a bill collector.

Maybe if he still had a high rise luxury hotel or golf resort there, he’d give a fuck.

Then again, probably not. He’d only make sure the power (and Fox news) got restored and the greens were in good shapes, at which point the locals would be on their own.

I would suggest that all Latino employees of Trump walk out of the tower, Mar-a-Lago or other worksites, but Uday and Qusay would just fire them.
