President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he would not tolerate Puerto Rico using federal hurricane relief funds to pay off the island’s massive debt.
“The people of Puerto Rico are wonderful, but the inept politicians are trying to use the massive and ridiculously high amounts of hurricane/disaster funding to pay off other obligations,” Trump wrote online. “The U.S. will NOT bail out long outstanding & unpaid obligations with hurricane relief money!”
