MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell was visibly annoyed on Tuesday in response to President Donald Trump's meeting in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in which he pointedly left out the mayor when heaping praise on federal and local officials for their response to Hurricane Maria.

Trump was seated at a table between First Lady Melania Trump and Puerto Rico's Democratic Gov. Ricardo Rosselló, where he took a veiled shot at San Juan mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz, whom he had a Twitter feud with over the weekend, according to the Hill:

"He’s not even from my party, but he started right from the beginning appreciating what we did," Trump said of Rosselló in remarks at a National Guard base. "This governor did not play politics. He didn’t play it all. He was saying it like it was and he was giving us the highest grades."

Mitchell did a recap of Trump's interactions with various local and federal officials, noting that he only did a quick handshake with Cruz, while thanking all the other leaders there for their hard work.
