Trump arrives in storm-hit Puerto Rico

President Donald Trump arrived in hurricane-devastated Puerto Rico today, hoping to underscore government recovery efforts and repair damage done by his contentious early response to the crisis.

Trump landed at Muniz Air National Guard Base to begin what the White House said would be a five-hour visit with federal responders, troops and survivors.

Nearly two weeks after Hurricane Maria thrashed the US territory, much of the island remains short of food and without access to power or drinking water.
