so the plan to make Trump the scapegoat for the hurricane disaster in Puerto Rico hit a wall, when the Governor there thanked the president. ABCNews report:

In San Juan, Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rossello appeared at a brief news conference Monday and praised the U.S. federal response to Hurricane Maria, which has included sending nearly 10,000 people to help recovery from the devastation. He also said his government has been in touch with mayors across the island and was working to get food and water to isolated communities cut off after the hurricane.

Rossello said federal agencies also have helped restore power to a medical center in San Juan and supply diesel to fuel the generators of hospitals as well as deliver food and water to hard-hit communities across the island.

And the governor said he was "very grateful" to President Donald Trump for responding Puerto Rico's petition for help.

the logistics is complicated, partly due to the fact that a lot of the "assets" (people and supplies) have been busy helping the disasters in other nearby islands hit by earier storms.
