#1 Most died from Covid, right? Oh, wait, the Swamp people in Washington aren't paying for the filled in death certificates from Port-au-Prince.

QUESTION:
Given the general opinion is the Clinton's skimmed a few $million from the last Haitian Relief Fund.

Is it Obama's or Biden's turn now?

#4 So why don't these earthquakes and hurricanes totally devastate Santo Domingo as well? They're on the same island, Hispaniola.

#6 Building codes?

Or said another way, enforced building codes. Santa Domingo is more prosperous than Haiti, despite being the other end of their common island. My guess: it is a bit harder to bribe the building inspectors.

#7 "Overwhelmed hospital" joins concern trolls and "I'm a lifelong Republican but I voted against Trump" in the pantheon of "uh, yeah. Sure..." headlines.

#8 I don't think the Clinton grifters/criminals will be welcome in Haiti this time.
