President Trump again slammed the major of San Juan.

President Trump on Tuesday claimed he's the "best thing" ever to happen to Puerto Rico.
"Puerto Rico got 91 Billion Dollars for the hurricane, more money than has ever been gotten for a hurricane before, & all their local politicians do is complain & ask for more money," Trump wrote on Twitter.
"The pols are grossly incompetent, spend the money foolishly or corruptly, & only take from USA," Trump continued. "The best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico is President Donald J. Trump. So many wonderful people, but with such bad Island leadership and with so much money wasted. Cannot continue to hurt our Farmers and States with these massive payments, and so little appreciation!"
In a tweet Monday night, he called San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz, "crazed and incompetent."
The tweets came "after the Senate voted down a disaster relief package that Democrats argued didn't include enough money to help storm-ravaged Puerto Rico," notes the Washington Post.
