Hurry Up, Mueller

     "Genocide."
     Yes, the Mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico went there and said the "G" word, something never uttered except by yours truly his first year of blogging after Katrina hit New Orleans.
     And in the nearly 13 years I've been a political blogger, the first, last and only other time I have ever felt such a volcanic rage at an administration, out of all the countless evils they have visited on us and the world since late August 2005, was Bush's sluggish and apathetic response to the flooding in New Orleans during one of his many vacations.
     This matches that, easily.
     Here's a billionaire sitting on his fat ass at a country club he owns in New Jersey congratulating himself through the efforts of his proxies on the ground in Puerto Rico and petulantly pouting in the third person that the mayor of San Juan was "nasty" to "Trump".
     Really, does this surprise anyone, that this pouting Mussolini in a bad ball cap would be so completely indifferent to the plight of 3,411,000 American citizens who happen to be Puerto Rican? Are you really shocked at this after his response was hardly any better after Houston and its 36% Hispanic population flooded a month ago? Or Miami's 70% Cuban and Hispanic population?
     Are we seeing a trend here, folks?
     Bottom line, if you live in a Hispanic-majority or dense population that suffers a catastrophic tragedy as long as Trump's "president", don't expect help. You'll be labeled on Twitter a welfare queen, that you expect to have everything done for you, obscure shipping laws will take forever to be suspended, immigration slots will not be temporarily raised, even though you're already an American citizen.
     Instead, you'll get insults from the "Commander in Chief" and to rely on yourself so he doesn't have to get heavily involved even through proxies. Telling Puerto Rico to help itself is like telling a man without legs to pull himself up by the bootstraps.
     Let this be a teaching lesson to every child who's learning or will learn Civics that this is not the way a president acts during a national emergency, that it's not OK to treat a national disaster as if it's a tempest in a teapot in some little faraway Third World country, that it's not OK to put your feelings before the lives of people (the official death toll in Puerto Rico at this time stands at 16 although that will surely rise).
     So, Mr. Mueller, please wrap up this investigation because this orange turd in the crystal punch bowl has embarrassed us long enough. Please. Hurry. Up and flush this backed-up lump of shit once and for all before he kills more people.
