Of course this will be politicized but there is not much we can do except let time run its course. Supplies have been sent to PR, many weeks ago. But distribution is not easy. There is not any gasoline to run vehicles. And the little bit of diesel that is around is used to run chillers to keep perishable supplies. But that fuel is about to run out too. Which means they'll have another problem, they'll have tons of stuff that will need to be disposed of and no where to put it. Its a mess, but this is what happens.
You can't air drop supplies on mountain terrain. It won't land where you want it, and people will likely die trying to get to it. Many state the help should have been sent before the hurricane...yea that will work good as your supplies and volunteers are washed out into the ocean. About the best you can do right now is pack a sail boat full of hotdogs and start sailing.

The three star general now commanding the military effort says he doesn't have the necessary resources (neither hardware, nor staff). There's just forty or so helicopters ferrying stuff around. Seriously? That's the best the US is supposed to be able to do?
