Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello would have a very bad time if he punched Trump

1 Share
In an interview with CNN, Puerto Rico's Democratic Gov. Ricardo Rossello referred to President Trump, stating "If the bully gets close, I'll punch the bully in the mouth." He added that Trump shouldn't ignore his "courage."
I'm pretty confident that Rossello should abandon this theory of action.
First, there's that not-so-small U.S. Secret Service issue. Indeed, I wouldn't be surprised if Rossello now gets a visit from the Secret Service's Miami field office, which is responsible for Puerto Rico. The service's standing protocol is to investigate all threats to the president. Because were Rossello to actually punch Trump, the governor would be the physical loser. After all, the Secret Service would aggressively put him on the ground, as one photographer found out during a 2016 campaign event. The Secret Service trains agents to use dominant force in face of physical attacks. This is an agency that takes its protective mission exceptionally seriously.
But that would be just the start of Rossello's troubles. Enter federal law. Specifically, the Title 18 federal offense of assaulting the president. It comes with a rather hefty punishment of up to ten years in prison. Now, considering that the courts take a very dim view of assaults on federal officers, and that Trump is the chief executive officer of the United States, Rossello's punch would earn him a not-so-short stay in federal prison. This would almost certainly be the case even if Trump was uninjured by the assault.
Finally, there's the issue of Trump himself. Because Trump has shown an apparent willingness to personally fight potential assailants. Watch at the bottom of this article, for example, what happened when a protester attempted to rush Trump's stage at a 2016 campaign event. As the Secret Service moved to cover Trump, Trump spun towards the protester ready to hit him. Seeing as Trump is 6'3 tall and weighs 243 pounds, his punch might not feel great.
So yes, Rossello should reconsider whether his threat is actually one of "courage" or just stupidity.

Lawmakers to introduce bill granting Puerto Rico statehood

1 Share

Washington — A bipartisan group of lawmakers will introduce legislation Thursday that would admit Puerto Rico into the union as the 51st state without a referendum on the island’s territorial status, four sources familiar with the situation told CBS News.
The unprecedented bill will be unveiled by Florida Rep. Darren Soto, who represents parts of Orlando and its large Puerto Rican community, during a press conference in Washington, which will be attended by the island’s Gov. Ricardo Rosselló, a vocal supporter of Puerto Rican statehood. If enacted, the legislation would automatically trigger the island’s admission into the union, bypassing any referendum, the sources said.
“It is absurd that, in the 21st century, the world’s greatest democracy still possess territories in which citizens are not allowed the fundamental right to vote for their president. It is shameful and it must end,” a Puerto Rican government official told CBS News. “We applaud Rep. Soto for stepping up to right this wrong.”
In the past seven years, the Puerto Rican government has held two referendums on the status of the island. In both cases, voters chose statehood, but because any change in status requires Congressional approval, the results were symbolic.
Although it could secure passage in the Democrat-controlled House, the legislation will almost certainly be opposed by the Trump administration and the Republican-controlled Senate. Two Democratic Congressional sources, however, told CBS News the measure will allow the party to send a clear message on Puerto Rico during a time when they believe the federal government is mistreating the U.S. territory, which is still recovering from a pair of powerful storms and grappling with decades of financial instability.
Since Hurricane Maria devastated the island in 2017, Congressional Democrats and many elected officials in Puerto Rico, home to approximately 3.2 million U.S. citizens, have accused the Trump administration of treating Puerto Ricans like second-class citizens. The White House’s handling of recovery efforts in the aftermath of hurricanes María and Irma have been sharply criticized by some local residents, leaders and most Democrats in Congress.
On Tuesday, several media outlets reported Mr. Trump privately told Republican senators he opposed further disaster aid to the island because he believed the U.S. territory received too many federal relief funds compared to states like Texas and Florida, which have also been battered by storms in the past two years.
Puerto Rican leaders have also denounce the administration for considering diverting disaster relief funds to finance the president’s long-promised wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and opposing $600 million in food assistance funding, which the White House called “excessive and unnecessary.”
Because the bill would not include a referendum in which voters can opt for the change in territorial status, if any, that they desire, the legislative effort will likely be met with fierce opposition from some political leaders, citizens and groups, including pro-independence movements and people who want voters to make a decision before any change in territorial status.
For decades, the Caribbean island has faced a perpetual struggle over questions of self-determination, which dates back to the late 19th century, when the U.S. acquired the territory after the Spanish-American War.
Puerto Rico currently only has a non-voting member serving in the House of Representatives. Statehood would grant Puerto Rico Congressional representation in both the Senate and House as well as a stronger influence in presidential elections.
Because they don’t have voting representation in Congress, voters living in Puerto Rico and other U.S. territories are not entitled to electoral votes. Despite having non-voting representation in Congress, voters in the District of Columbia have been able to cast ballots in presidential elections since the 23rd Amendment was ratified in 1961.

'If the bully gets close, I'll punch the bully in the mouth.'

1 Share
Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló said Thursday that he won’t allow his officials to be bullied by the White House at a time when President Donald Trump and his administration have doubled down on their opposition to granting the island hurricane recovery funding.
"If the bully gets close, I'll punch the bully in the mouth," Rosselló told CNN, referring to Trump.
His remarks come after the president told Republican legislators at a closed-door Capitol Hill meeting Tuesday that Puerto Rico had received too much money to rebuild after Hurricane Maria. The amount “is way out of proportion to what Texas and Florida and others have gotten,” Trump said, according to Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida.
While Rosselló told CNN that "it would be a mistake to confuse courtesy with courage," some critics questioned why the governor didn’t show this kind of “courage” when Trump first visited the disaster area in October 2017. During that visit, Trump said Puerto Rico was not a “real catastrophe" like Hurricane Katrina was in New Orleans.
“The governor is desperate because he knows that history will remember him as a coward,” San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz, who recently announced she is running for governor in 2020, said on Twitter. “When he had to, the governor of Puerto Rico praised the President. Realizing [now] that his complacent attitude towards Trump is hurting him politically, the governor pretends to be taking Trump on.”
Rosselló's comments come on the same day he voiced his support for a new bill introduced by Rep. Darren Soto, D-Fla., on Thursday to make Puerto Rico the nation's 51st state.
Trump has reportedly refused to meet privately with Rosselló numerous times to discuss the pace of disaster relief a year and a half after Maria killed at least 2,975 people in 2017 — making it the deadliest natural disaster in the United States in 100 years .
According to CNN, senior White House officials told Rosselló's top aides that Puerto Rico representatives were insisting too much on setting a meeting with the president.
One Trump official insisted that they stop requesting the meeting, using a vulgarity to say the governor was messing things up, according to what Puerto Rican officials told CNN.
For more than a year, Trump and his administration have been criticized over their response to Maria.
In the immediate aftermath of the storm, more than 200,000 Puerto Ricans left for the mainland — some temporarily — and the U.S. territory incurred about $90 billion in damages.
Federal agencies such as the Federal Emergency Management Agency later acknowledged failures in areas including staffing and coordination , while others such as the Department of Housing and Urban Development allocated historic amounts of funding for housing, infrastructure and energy — but most of that money has not made its way to communities in Puerto Rico.
