Lin-Manuel Miranda on Puerto Rico: ‘I’ve Never Seen a President Attack the Victims of a Natural Disaster’

EXCERPT:

MIRANDA: "You know, the tweets I wrote this weekend made news because normally my Twitter feed is full of dad jokes and dog videos and pictures of my son playing with trains, and yet I've never seen a sitting president attack the victims of a natural disaster before. That is without precedent and that is why my words were without precedent. So, you know, I didn't see the press conference in Puerto Rico. I was busy mixing and mastering this song. I waited to hear are we increasing aid, are we increasing troops? Short of that, I don't need another photo-op. I need action and I need people to help my island."
