It just hit me again how outrageous trump's behavior was after the huge disaster in Puerto Rico at the start of his presidency when he went there and did nothing but throw out paper towels.
Take other countries we'd criticize for treating parts of the country second class, as we do our 'territories' - imagine a natural disaster in Crimea and Putin visiting and throwing paper towels.
It was so insulting, so incompetent, so irresponsible, so harmful in its absence of actual help, it really did show who he was and what his administration was. It was outrageous.
Nothing new about it - it just hit me again how outrageous it was, like an echo outrage.
