1. So for getting the help you expect from your government...

help that you have paid taxes for -- you must bow down with gratitude?

[dalton99a]

4. +1

2. 1st thing that came to mind to say.......

"...... What a maroon...." Wasn't it Bugs Bunny?

[dalton99a]

3. Puerto Ricans must give thanks and praise to the traitor for not murdering more of them

[get the red out]

6. This

He doesn't hate the fool in North Korea, he is simply jealous of him.

11. Trump shares much in common with Kim Jong Un.

They were both handed their stations in life by those who reject even the appearance of Democracy. Both demand and get total fealty from core supporters. Neither is very good at their job and most people on the planet would be glad to see them leave. Both depend on State sponsored terror.

5. His lack of self-control is truly amazing

He is so predictable. Rises to the bait every time. Just has to make a petulant rejoinder every time. Can't let a single criticism go by unanswered. A very sad and deeply insecure man. Let this be a lesson in the virtue of a little self control.

[gordianot]

7. Trump is like a completely dependent child.

He is incapable of elliciting gratitude so he demands it even though he does not understand the concept.

8. OK, Buster, explain what you mean by "politically motivated ingrates".

If that comment is directed at citizens like me who think you're a blight on humanity, you can kiss my politically motivated butt.

[BumRushDaShow]

9. Fucking 71 year old man

acting like a 3-year old in a melt-down.

[Control-Z]

10. Is this even possible?

"All buildings now inspected.....
...for safety."

I guess all people have been accounted for too?

Or does it mean something different than what it sounds like it means?

[groundloop]

13. I caught that too..... obviously just another lie to appease his base

There's no way in all 'all buildings' have been inspected, although it wouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that a building which has been reduced to a pile of rubble isn't safe to live in.

[Rural_Progressive]

15. By who and for what?

Is he saying that he was able to get hundreds of certified engineers on the ground in PR with the proper equipment to inspect and certify building integrity but couldn't get generators, medical supplies, food and water in at the same time?

What would the purpose be for inspecting and either certifying or condemning buildings at this point?

The subhuman truly has no clue what's going on and is talking out of the other end of his alimentary canal.

[onethatcares]

17. maybe, and I say just, maybe

Tom Price flew over on his way out and told him so.

[forgotmylogin]

16. He's a real estate guy.

He's more concerned about property and buildings than people.

[Maxheader]

12. Wonder what

cues these comments from cheetos? Does it think
everyone should be grateful for dubious deeds? For that matter
just doing your job doesn't merit national hoorahs!! Let
the citizens get the word out. Are things better?
Do you have cover, food and water?

[6000eliot]

20. Watching Fox News in the morning?

[StepnKretchit]

14. He's Losing It, Y'all!

Keep up the pressure!

18. Disgusting

We were hit by a tornado a year ago July and I know how terrible and scary it is to go through something like that! I think DJT's response is absolutely unforgivable. There is nothing politically motivated by peoples comments, how he can even suggest such a thing shows us how callous, mean spirited he really is. He can tour the islands with his wife but in our hearts we all know what kind of a small human being he is. Most decent human beings are saddened to see these peoples lives torn apart and the losses they have suffered. They shouldn't have to wait for response and there should immediately be help so they have their health needs met, water, food, electricity and everything the rest of us take for granted. Our hearts go out to the people in the Caribbean Islands, Texas and Florida.

[CharlesBowers]

19. Sociopath

We all know what we have in the WH. What we as citizens need to do since nothing much is happening to curtail the sociopath we are dealing with,is to pull his Twitter account. Call the Twitter Board and request his removal. All Media pundits and news cast people need to end the circus show and not allow the carnival barker access to the bull horn and pulpit. Until we legally can remove it from the WH, we need to work around the obstacle.

21. Ingrates...

I've seen that word used a lot toward people who have to rely on food stamps and food pantries and people who need other forms of welfare. The claim is that they are looking for a handout.

First he says, "They want everything done for them." Now he refers to ingrates. Classist, racist, sexist, bigoted.

[TexasBushwhacker]

22. Maybe they're "ingrates" because they've gotten little to no help

You can't be grateful when your president is letting you starve and die of thirst.
