trump denies the death toll in Puerto Rico
trump now denies the reports of nearly 3,000 deaths from Hurricane Maria. He's blaming the Democrats for making up the "really large numbers of deaths to make him look as bad as possible." He's saying if anyone died of old age or any other cause, the Democrats just added them to the list of hurricane deaths. When he visited Puerto Rico after the storm, he told the people there that they were lucky Maria wasn't a "real catastrophe" like 2005's Katrina was. Of course we all remember the paper towel game show toss that he thought would be fun. This man is a disgrace, along with everyone who still makes up excuses for him.

Re: trump denies the death toll in Puerto Rico
Per CNN:
Earlier this month, the island's governor formally raised the death toll from Hurricane Maria to an estimated 2,975 from 64 following a study conducted by researchers at The George Washington University. The study was NOT done by the democrats!
CNN's own reporting reflects similar numbers. The university study accounted for Puerto Ricans who succumbed to the stifling heat and other aftereffects of the storm and had not been previously counted in official figures.
Much of the US territory was without power for weeks.
Trump has consistently denied any fault for his administration in the aftermath of the storm. In fact, the President has instead sought praise for his handling of Hurricane Maria, saying earlier this week that it was "an incredible, unsung success."
Liar that he is and can't accept the truth...!

Re: trump denies the death toll in Puerto Rico
Former Vice President Joe Biden on Thursday mocked President Donald Trump's claim that "3000 people did not die" in hurricanes that devastated Puerto Rico last year."By the way, there's no problems in America," Biden said SARCASTICALLY during an economic speech at The Century Foundation, a Washington think tank. "Everybody's doing well. Things are fair and decent, and no one died in Puerto Rico."

Re: trump denies the death toll in Puerto Rico
The pervert is still doubling down on his false claims that Hurricane Maria’s death toll of nearly 3,000 Americans in Puerto Rico last year was inflated in order to do him political harm.
What an asshole he is.....and stupid too!
