On Thursday, once again, President Donald Trump sought to excuse his administration’s disorganized and tardy response to the disastrous impact Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rico by saying that you can’t “drive your trucks” there because it’s an island.

“This is an island. Surrounded by water. Big water. Ocean water,” he said during a speech to the American Association of Manufacturers.
