Nice to see people stand up for principle.

All of us remember Trump treating his people like this
Players of color remember Trump calling black athletes "sons of bitches"
Following the ceremony in a tweet Trump couldn't help himself and lie about funding for Puerto Rico
Sometimes you just have to stand up for right.

It’s pretty tough to go celebrate when we’re where we’re at. I’d rather not go and be consistent with everything.”
All of us remember Trump treating his people like this

Following the ceremony in a tweet Trump couldn't help himself and lie about funding for Puerto Rico
He wrote that the island had been given $91 billion, “should be very happy,” and — after listing a number of red states he claimed Democrats threatened to punish in retaliation to his response to Puerto Rico — added “Dems don’t want farmers to get any help.”
More than an accounting of long-dispersed funds already in the bank, his $91 billion claim is actually more like an estimated IOU cobbled together across a number of government agencies.
As for the insinuation helping Puerto Rico doesn’t help farmers, farming income on the island grew 25% from 2012-2014 to the tune of $900 million.
In other words, helping Puerto Rico does help American farmers — lest we forget Puerto Ricans are Americans.
Sometimes you just have to stand up for right.
