As of Wednesday, three weeks have passed since Hurricane Maria made landfall on Puerto Rico as a Category 4 storm, wiping out innumerable homes and devastating the island’s infrastructure.
President Trump has been repeatedly criticized for his handling of recovery efforts, prompting him to repeatedly insist that the government is doing all that it can. He stated on Twitter that “nobody could have done what I’ve done for Puerto Rico with so little appreciation,” including a link to a video with highlights of the recovery efforts. (As The Washington Post’s Jenna Johnson reported, though, many of the clips in the video were taken out of context.)
