Puerto Rico’s mayor of San Juan has sharpened her attacks against Donald Trump, blaming his administration for “structural negligence” that led to thousands of deaths in the wake of Hurricane Maria. Carmen Yulín Cruz said the president was responsible for the federal government’s slow response to the deadly hurricane estimated to have killed nearly 3,000 people, during an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper on the one-year anniversary of the storm. “This is President Trump’s Katrina,” the mayor said, referring to the catastrophic hurricane that struck the US in August 2005.
