In the week since Hurricane Maria’s direct hit on Puerto Rico, dramatic footage of the devastation reveal the extent of the damage – leaving much of its population of 3.6 million without food, water, or power.
“This has been an unprecedented disaster, not only for Puerto Rico, but for all of the region…we need more help. We need more help with resources. We need more help with people being deployed so that we can get logistical support elsewhere.” –Gov. Ricardo Rosselló
NOAA satellite footage from before and after the hurricane reveal the extent of the damage to Puerto Rico’s electrical grid:

“After” looks like North Korea there was never a “Before” there.
Its Trumps “Katrina”! Or. A democratic run shithole that got hit by a hurricane. Why does it look like Cuba?
You know what it means when Puerto Ricans are w/o power. After this deluge there will be another one in 9 months. A flood of new puertoricanos.
