    As usual, liberals are upset with Trump because he said the quiet parts out loud. Democrats say the same things in the form of inaction By keeping Puerto Rico is a vassal territory without the same rights as US Citizens.

    Putting aside that no president should say that about the citizens of their country even if there is some truth to it, I don’t think Harris will lose any votes over this. People made up their mind months ago, I made up mine a year ago. There can’t be people who haven’t made up their mind yet.

    Idk it made me like him and his party more. trump supporters are actually garbage unlike Puerto Rico.

    I won’t argue it’s a dehumanizing statement, but we’re talking about nazis here. He’s just calling it like it is.

    Less of an assist, more like he neutered the effect of that comedian calling Puerto Rico a garbage patch. Now they have a tit-for-tat response (even if it’s clearly different) and both controversies cancel each other out.
