1. Damn

On Faux News no less.

[Sanity Claws]

2. Curt Schilling?

My goodness. He has always been a Republican shill. I am surprised that he is able to see reality.

[JDC]

3. RWNJ for sure. But usually once it effects them Personally they see the light

This is one of those times, even for Schilling. And that is saying something. Fox moved right along and asked him what he is plugging.

[brush]

6. That was my opinion of him too. It must be really bad in PR for him to say those things...

and FOX airs it no less.

I think the reckoning is coming for trump once the real figures of the deaths come out.

Meanwhile he's attending the President's Cup golf match today.

[progressoid]

19. Kind of surprised FOX gave him that much air time.

I doubt they were expecting someone to stray from their usual 'praise the president' script.

[brush]

24. That was an eye opener to me too. Maybe they're setting the stage to distance themselves...

from the debacle that is trump.

[tblue37]

26. Yep--he is very Right Wing and generally a Trump supporter, so it is obviously very bad

there to provoke such comments from him.

[NCjack]

14. I wonder if this experience will transform him. He is now

seeing the type of lies honest people have to confront in all of their dealings with RW repugnants everyday -- healthcare, racism, education, living wage, fake news and much more. They betrump us constantly.

[GoCubsGo]

4. Good for him.

I can't stand the guy, but when someone calls out any injustice, atrocity, or that kind of incompetence, I don't care who they are. I give credit where it is due. I hope he has opened up at least some eyes with this.

[Maynar]

12. This.

[NNadir]

5. Even when an evil person does the right thing, it is still the right thing.

Shilling sucks, but if even an ethical Lilliputian like him can see this much, well, that says something.

I applaud him for this sudden outbreak of humanity and honesty.

[lark]

9. Really wish it were more widespread.

Instead drumpf and his admin. double down on hate and refuse to do the right thing. He's not listening to his generals because of his personal pique against the mayor and hate of brown people. In a far worse situation, night vs. day it's so stark, compare the response to Andrew to this. It seems like that by this time there were tons of tent cities, and probably 50,000 National Guard, Army and FEMA folks on the ground, clearing roads so supplies can get through. This requires even more and is getting a tiny fraction, directly because orange assface doesn't really want to help. Bet anything that Tues. he goes no further than San Juan and will declare once more how great they are doing and probably put in a dig about them paying for it. I just have a gut feeling that until pictures of dead bodies start being shown in mass, he just won't care enough to do anything, inhuman as he is. I really pray I'm wrong.

[malaise]

7. But...but...but

the deranged Dotard said all buildings were examined.

[Achilleaze]

8. Republican lies about republican FAIL are

Sickening

[Duppers]

10. Wow! K & R

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

11. FEMA executiions? Really?

[billh58]

13. I believe that he

is referring to the horrible way FEMA has "executed" (carried out) their mission to provide aid and comfort to the citizens of PR.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

15. That's a terrible way to express it.

And I'll go back and correct my typo.

[petronius]

22. It's an unfortunate phrasing - my bet is that 90% of

the Foxbots will read only those words, and go away with the understanding that people are being killed by (Democratic holdovers in) FEMA. And they'll blame it on Obama, Clinton, and Soros...

[thesquanderer]

16. When asked why he was there, he said...

"Same reason I was on the ground in Texas and Florida. These are Americans. If this was Texas, there'd be 55 thousand soldiers sitting on this island right now."

He may be Curt Schilling, but he gets it. Good for him.

[IcyPeas]

17. k&R -- that's quite a big statement from schilling

[DK504]

18. On Fox News no less. I bet they weren't expecting that! And he's a Republican.

There are Chinook copters and the Sikorsky copters that can lift tanks for God's sake, you'd think they could lift a few containers to all the schools in the inland areas to get food and water to them.

I looked at some maps last night and there are dozens of landing areas, I'm sure they are pretty messed up/destroyed, but that's why we have the Sea Bees and the Army Corp of Eng. to handle shit like this, land what is need there and move the fuck on. See? If a regular person like myself can think this shit up why the fuck can't the supposed "experts" do this? I know I'm not the sharpest tack in the bag, but damn!!!!

When some fucking Lt. Gen. tells people that are on the verge of dying from cholera to "be resilient", I want to hit him in the throat. How the fuck are they supposed to be "resilient"? They have NO WATER, NO FOOD, NO SHELTER. WTF is wrong with these people?

[bdamomma]

20. We cannot stay silent on this

Call your Reps and Senators the more phone calls they get they have to do more. This is murder and negligence.

[superpatriotman]

21. K&R

[Skittles]

23. what does "8 police buried" mean

[MrsCoffee]

25. He actually praises Trump at the end of that video and blamed "people on the ground".

"The president did everything in a pace that they'd never seen before as far as him releasing money and releasing assets into these theaters"

"The execution on the ground has been horrifying...there is something happening here from the outside looking in perspective..."

[montana_hazeleyes]

28. I noticed that. He acted like trump had acted oh- so- quickly,

but the people on the ground were to fault! Big faced lie!

[nini]

27. "If this was Texas there'd be 55,000 soldiers...'

EXACTLY

[MLAA]

29. Four words I never thought I would be saying.

I am a long time AZ Diamondback fan. I have been disgusted with racist, misogynistic, ignorant Kurt Schilling.

So I never thought I would say, Thank You Curt Schilling.
