Trump strikes back at San Juan mayor, deports Puerto Rican troops back to Mexico
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump escalated his feud against San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz today, announcing that he would deport illegal Puerto Rican immigrants serving in the U.S. military back to Mexico "where they belong," sources confirmed.
"These Puerto Ricans are pouring over the border in hordes," said President Donald Trump, indicating a map of western Minnesota. "They're taking jobs from true, patriotic Americans who want to serve their country."
Trump announced the deportation order days after he railed against Cruz, who has criticized the federal government's response after Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico.
