Trump and Puerto Rico

For 11 days Trump has let Puerto Rico wallow in hell, its people -- Americans -- suffering and dying. Make me Commander-In-Chief for one week and here's what I'll do to save our fellow citizens in Puerto Rico:

1. Send the ENTIRE Army Corps of Engineers IMMEDIATELY to Puerto Rico.They can rebuild infrastructure and restore electricity and cell service.
2. Send aircraft carriers loaded with helicopters to Puerto Rico. They can easily airlift water, food & medicine to every part of the island.
3. Fly Air Force cargo planes, criss-crossing over the island, and parachute-drop supplies everywhere to the people.
4. Send in the 82nd Airborne! They can do anything and everything!
5. Send in all Army truck drivers to get those trucks full of supplies that are now sitting on the docks moving out to the people.
6. Send in the Marines! Amphibious landings can easily happen all over the island. They can bring generators and other needed materials.
7. Tell all of the airlines they must contribute hundreds of free flights for all Puerto Ricans who want to come and stay with relatives and friends in the mainland US.
8. Send a dozen massive tanker ships filled with gasoline and other needed fuels.
9. As a US territory, and for the safety and protection of the Puerto Rican people, all rebuilding must be done by following the same building codes that contractors have to follow on the mainland.
10. When the immediate crisis has been resolved, Congress must respect the wishes of over 60% of the Puerto Rican people and make PR a state. And do the same for DC and the Virgin Islands (which also need the same military aid & response right now)!

Trillions of our tax dollars are ripped from us and sent to the Pentagon. For what? So much wrong has been done in our name. Finally, here's a chance to use the military to truly save American lives and protect American citizens. If I were in charge, that is what I would do.
