Trump is lucky American's care even less about Puerto Rico than they do poor black people in New Orleans.

To be "fair," if Americans cared more, Trump probably would, too.

This president...

"President's comments regarding the lifting of the Merchant Marine Act, “We’re thinking about that,” he said at a White House press event. “But we have a lot of shippers and … a lot of people who work in the shipping industry that don’t want the Jones Act lifted. And we have a lot of ships out there right now.” Remember, those people can vote, Puerto Ricans can't!"


I.E. "Who cares if American lives are lost to starvation, thirst, or illness. The other ones can vote!"

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Good lord, he openly admitted he doesn't care because they can't vote?

No. That's not part of the quote. That's something the poster added on.

If you look closely, the whole thing is a quote, and there are quotes within that.

Yes, but it was not in the actual quote by Donald Trump. The quote without the additional reference to voters is all over the place (example below).
