Trump’s controversies with Puerto Rico
Anuel AA and Justin Quiles are one of the few artists of Latin origin who have publicly shown their support for Donald Trump. This means that their participation in the Republican candidate’s rally has become one of the most viral moments of the campaign of the former president until now.
During his term, Trump had to deal with the consequences of the passage of Hurricane María in Puerto Ricowhich left hundreds dead and parts of the island without water or electricity for months.
His reaction sparked great controversy from the moment the then US president visited the island in 2017, when he assured that This disaster was not “a real catastrophe”just like Hurricane Katrina in 2005 in Louisiana.
In September 2018, the Republican once again became the protagonist of another controversy in deny that Hurricane María caused nearly 3,000 deathsas indicated by an academic report supported by Puerto Rican authorities. Furthermore, without proof, he accused Democrats of manipulate this number to give him a bad image.
