The threats we've received can be tolerated as an individual, but I will never allow them to affect my home."Protests on the US territory have been ongoing for more than a week -- and older protesters said Monday's demonstrations were among the largest they've ever seen.

But demonstrators say the leaked messages are just one of many reasons why Puerto Rico's leadership needs to go.Read More"I am fed up with the thieving government," protester Maristella Gross said at Monday night's protest."I am fed up with corruption. I am fed up with lack of integrity.""This is an opportunity to Puerto Rico to clean house, to start over," said Ediris Rivera, 23.

I thought only Trump was what was wrong with Puerto Rico? Are you admitting to having a narrative? Lol

Good riddens you amateur! I would apply at the WH if I were you there are plenty of openings and they are always looking for the lowest common denominator!

Typical left wingers.

he's playing candy crush and really sad about his score

Funny how Trump caught a bunch of flak for how he handled the situation in Puerto Rico, then claimed it was PRs fault for having a shitty corrupted government. Then, what, a year later(?) it comes out that PRs government is ACTUAL shit and ACTUALLY corrupt. Kinda makes ya 🤔🤔🤔

And we should care why? We don't.

ADIOS ASSHOLE!
