Puerto Rico, along with Hawaii, New Mexico, California, and Texas, should be expelled from America.

What is it with new Republican posters from Iowa? Something in the water?

The Jones Act should be permanently repealed for Alaska, Hawaii, and the unincorporated territories. It should stay for the lower 48.

Puerto Rico is the only unincorporated territory the Jones Act applies to because it's the only one within U.S. customs.
True, but Guam and CNMI have similar restrictions that largely the same as the Jones Act, although without the troublesome US-built ship requirement, which I think is the biggest problem with the Jones Act.

Saying that government officials in PR could not get the workers to help is not the same thing as calling them lazy. He is saying that PR governments are disorganized and and are not using their resources and manpower effectively. I don't know enough to really have an opinion on what he said, but it's definitely not dog whistling. I'm a dog and I didn't hear anything

I realize it means little, but I'll be praying for you and your family Arch.
