text: In another commentary utterly lacking in understanding the situation at hand, President Trump succeeded in both missing the point of his visit to Puerto Rico and managed to be dismissive to the plight of his hosts. Comparing two disasters, Hurricane Katrina and Maria, with each other and their impacts upon their respective victims was a so not disguised backhand to the people of Puerto Rico. Then bringing up the F-35 fighter plane in his remarks, which had nothing to do with why he was there, left everyone listening doubting his ability to stay on topic. Exhibiting sensitivity and generosity may not have been in evidence on the reality show he once fronted but they are necessary attributes of a president attempting to comfort fellow US citizens in their time of need.
