Puerto Rico doesn't benefit the US any way. We don't need a bunch of islands to project naval power since the advent of nuclear powered ships.
Get hit with Hurricane Maria
you're a fucking idiot though that should have been clear from your flag.
PR provides numerous benefits to the american bourgeoisie including but not limited to the exploitation of their markets, theft of local resources, creating a large reserve of cheap labour, and
more military bases
Wait, he literally denied the hurricane ever even happened?
90 % of those 20 % from the total population that voted
so, how much of the total population are 90 % voting in favor?
0.2*0.9=0.18
So around 18% of the population voted in favor.
The thing that most interests me about Puerto Rico is that Burgers are constantly crying about muh Deep State, muh FEMA camps etc. etc., yet they're completely unaware of the actual things that are going on there with Private Military Contractors, on US Soil, and therein lies their admittance that they're the subhumans that they screech about, allowing natural disasters to not only completely destroy a small island that doesn't count because muh browns, but also towns all across the southwest, yet wholeheartedly support the funnelling of millions of dollars away from things like FEMA to ICE because muh brown invaders reeeeee. Bootlicking Cuckolds.
While I certainly wouldn’t put it past the US to rig a PR election, there needs to be more proof than just an assumption based on their past actions.

This is like denying the Holocaust.
