#DonaldTrump went to Puerto Rico, stayed in the big city, stuck to the wealthier neighborhoods and declared PR's recovery a success.
_Trump spent most of his time in and near San Juan, Puerto Rico's capital and largest city, where recovery is much further along. As his motorcade sped toward the municipality of Guaynabo, he passed broken highway dividers, hundreds of downed trees and small pockets of locals taking photos, including one woman who held a sign that read: "You are a bad hombre."
The area is among the wealthiest and safest places that Trump could have visited and suffered less damage than poorer communities nearby. As Trump and his wife walked through one neighborhood, several families asked to have their photos taken with the couple. As he finished talking with one family, he told them: "Have a good time."
...
Trump stood behind a table filled with relief supplies, including flashlights, rice and paper towels. He threw rolls into the crowd and, glancing at a pile of solar-powered flashlights, said: "Flashlights, you don't need 'em anymore." An estimated 95 percent of the island remains without electricity._
