President Trump has never been one to self-criticize. That trend didn’t end Thursday while taking questions from reporters with visiting Puerto Rico Governor Ricardo Rosselló in Washington DC.
“I would give myself a 10,” Trump said in reply to a reporter who asked how he’d rate his efforts on a scale from one to ten.
The President has been praised by some politicians in Puerto Rico, though others have attempted to level very harsh criticism. Rosselló wouldn’t answer the question about rating DC’s relief efforts. The President even turned and prompted him to answer, but the Governor simply repeated that the White House had answered “all of our petitions.”
Currently, around 20% of the island has electricity and 70% has access to clean water.

He visited the island earlier this month and told local officials that they should be “proud” of how few people had died from the storm compared with the death toll during Hurricane Katrina, which he described as a “real catastrophe”.
