wed., 25 oct., 2017: puertorrequeño poly-sci, i.: give us This Day our Daily Curse

SPANISH:  “¡Pobre Requeños!  ¡Tan lejos de Dios y tan cerca de los Estados Unidos!”   ‡

       ‡ )  “Poor Puerto Ricans!  So far from God,  and so close to the United States!”  —  a punning comparison of the shared geopolitical curse of Mexico & Puerto Rico in this Gilded Age of #fakepresidentdonaldshitstaintrump.  NOTE:  Puerto Rico = Rich Port.   Puerto Rico has been saddled by  bankster debt for decades,  & the current American regime’s treatment of post-Hurricane Maria US colonies is par for the course...  Only, with reality teevee show insults,  lies,  & political stunts thrown in for ratings & for red-meat-for-the-trumpo-base .  The Spanish word for Puerto Rican is Puertorrequeño.  Hence,  Pobre Requeños.
