Trump: ‘We’ve Undertaken a Massive Federal Mobilization to Assist’ Puerto Rico

‘People have never seen anything like this’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "I would like to begin by sending our thoughts and prayers to the people of Puerto Rico who have been struck by storms of historic and catastrophic severity. People have never seen anything like this. We’ve undertaken a massive federal mobilization to assist Puerto Rico, including the presence of over 10,000 federal personnel, including 5,000 U.S. military and National Guard personnel, led by a very strong and talented three-star general. All appropriate departments of our government from Homeland Security to defense are engaged fully in the disaster and the response and recovery effort, probably has never been seen for something like this. This is an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water."
