Trump's Policies Threaten Puerto Rico's Economic Future

Source: Trump is Pulling the Plug on Puerto Rico’s Economy (2025-09-25)

The article argues that former President Donald Trump's policies and approach have significantly harmed Puerto Rico's economy. By cutting federal aid, reducing disaster relief, and dismissing the island's economic challenges, the Trump administration has undermined efforts to rebuild and grow Puerto Rico's economy, leaving residents in a state of uncertainty and hardship. The author emphasizes that these actions are effectively "pulling the plug" on Puerto Rico's economic recovery, exacerbating issues like debt, unemployment, and infrastructure decay. Without sustained federal support and strategic investment, the island's economic prospects remain bleak, risking long-term stagnation and decline.
