SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Former U.S. President Bill Clinton is visiting Puerto Rico and meeting with those left homeless after Hurricane Maria hit the U.S. territory as a Category 4 storm.
Clinton arrived on Monday 11.20.2017, with medical supplies and solar energy equipment donated by the Clinton Foundation, which has already shipped 76 tons of medicine and medical equipment since the storm hit on Sept. 20.
Clinton also visited health clinics and the island's largest shelter with Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello. He was scheduled to meet with San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz and other officials later Monday.
Maria killed at least 55 people and is estimated to have caused up to $95 billion in damage across Puerto Rico.

Yes, that would seem to be the case.... but, again, we don't know. There may be even more to it.
For example, the whole thing with the truckers union would seem to be a huge problem for the governor/mayor... who may want to blame Trump more to divert attention from their local issues than for partisan purposes... or it could be both... and something else besides.
But I do think it's absolutely vital that we listen to ALL sides -- especially the locals who are living this hell!!! -- in order to get a better grasp on the big picture. Those whose only agenda is to survive.
