Trump throws paper towels into crowd in Puerto Rico

The US president and first lady visit a disaster relief distribution centre at Calvary Chapel outside San Juan, Puerto Rico on Tuesday where Trump throws paper towels into the crowd.

Donald Trump's first visit to the US territory since it was pummeled by a category 4 hurricane nearly two weeks ago came amid criticism that his government has failed to adequately respond to the crisis. The island’s 3.4 million residents – particularly those in the more isolated parts – are still largely without electricity, communications and access to clean drinking water and food. But Trump told reporters: 'It’s now acknowledged what a great job we’ve done.' The official death toll from Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico now stands at 34. The governor says the hurricane that struck on 20 September with winds over 150 mph caused $90bn in damage across the Caribbean island

Born too late to explore earth, born too early to explore space. Born just in time to see the President of United States of America throwing paper towels at Puerto Ricans.

'Nobody has better paper towels than I do" "Nobody knew, that paper towels could be shot across a room like a basketball. Nobody knew that" "A friend once told me, "Donald, you could be the most athletic and generous president in history, maybe even more than Lincoln...MORE THAN LINCOLN!!" "Thanks folks, enjoy eating your paper towels, I'm going golfing...see you again...never"
