She plead for help in the most polarizing way possible. The USA is going above and beyond to assist Puerto Rico right now, and we will continue. The mayor's biting of the charitable hand that is feeding them is appalling.

Please craft a 30s soundbite that you'd consider appropriate, given the situation on the ground.

  "We're not a State, or even a Territory, we're an independent Commonwealth and supposed to be independent of federal disaster assistance. But myself, and other political leaders in Puerto Rico, abdicated our duties and did not prepare. You are providing us immense and essential aid, but we need more, as my leadership has been corrupt and incompetent. Thank you for your extraordinary efforts so far, and thank you in advance for saving the people I was elected to protect."

      Sure that's a bit tongue in cheek, but she could take a page from the other leaders in Puerto Rico. The only reason she's getting airtime is to push a narrative that generates clicks and views.
