"Fish don't rot from the head"

I'm a fisherman. Fish don't rot from the head, they rot from the anus; or the Trumphole as henceforth it shall be known.

Michael Che had even harsher words about Trump’s Twitter attacks on San Juan’s mayor, who the president said “was very complimentary only a few days ago” and “has now been told by the Democrats that you must be nasty to Trump.”

“Oh really, Donald? You bitch,” Che responded. “Was she nasty to you? How nasty? Are you shaking? Do you want to smoke a Virginia Slim until your hand stops moving?

“This isn’t a complicated issue, man, it’s hurricane relief,” he continued. “You just did this very same thing for white people, twice. So, tell Melania to put on her flood heels, get some bottled water, some food, pack up some extra Atlanta Falcons Super Bowl T-shirts and write them a check with our money, you cheap cracker!”

“In one month you have mishandled Puerto Rico, DACA, the NFL,” Che concluded. “It’s like when anybody darker than your golf pants has a problem you’re thinking, how can I make this worse?”

Puerto Rico: "There's a medical center down here & everyone that was in the ICU, died. Everyone"

NelsonMRosario

My dad lives on the island. I shared the President's response with him this morning. He wanted me to share one anecdote in response. 1/

For context, my dad is helping with rebuilding right now, and has friends in the govt, elected and appointed, on the island. 2/


After I told him what the President said he went quiet and said "Wow." A second later he says "I'm gonna share one detail with you. One." 3/

"There's a medical center down here, and everyone that was in the Intensive Care Unit, died. Everyone. That's just one detail." 4/
