Immediate fallout from the Trump rally:
"Puerto Ricans have died in defense of this country, including my fellow Marine brothers and sisters. We all took the same oath to defend this country. These disgusting and disrespectful statements are not what "United" in The United States stands for.
We are better than this." Ruben Gallego

"As we were all Haitian when they attacked Haitians in Ohio… today, we must all be Puerto Ricans!
When they come for one, they come for us all!!!" Jaime Harrison

Trump rally fallout:
"I've thought for a while now that the "October surprise" in a presidential election is no longer a real thing, a bygone political concept. Tonight may prove me wrong. Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden is shaping up to be the last-minute factor that sinks his campaign." Charlotte Clymer

"I was in the Astrodome when Pat Buchanan gave his 1992 "cultural war" speech. People cheering inside had no idea how badly it was backfiring. The same thing seems to be happening with the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden." Jack Pitney

Trump rally fallout:
"This joke bombed for a reason. It's not funny and it's not true. Puerto Ricans are amazing people and amazing Americans! I've been to the island many times. It's a beautiful place. Everyone should visit! I will always do whatever I can to help any Puerto Rican in Florida or on the island." Republican Rick Scott, trying to mitigate any damage to his re-election campaign

Trump rally fallout:
"Disgusted by Tony Hinchcliffe's racist comment calling Puerto Rico a 'floating island of garbage.'
This rhetoric does not reflect GOP values.
Puerto Rico sent 48,000+ soldiers to Vietnam, with over 345 Purple Hearts awarded. This bravery deserves respect.
Educate yourself!" Florida Republican Rep. Maria Salazar, trying to mitigate any damage to her election campaign

This racist rally locks that in." Mike Madrid
