Ben Smith Comments on Puerto Rico

In a tweet including a link to an article about Puerto Rico's struggle to regain power, Buzzfeed's Ben Smith commented that even "five months later" after Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico still has no power. The article that he linked, which is posted on Buzzfeed's website, explains how the citizens of Puerto Rico are still struggling in the aftermath of Maria even as Trump paints a false picture stating that the U.S. territory is "doing well". Although conditions have improved in San Juan, in the rural areas they are still without electricity. This tweet was posted on January 28th and it is so informative to be reminded of how little help the people of Puerto Rico are receiving. This tweet reminds people that although time has passed, the citizens of Puerto Rico still need help and support. [1 image, 2 links, 2 quotations, 136 words].
