It's less than 2 days from Port Everglades to PR by cargo ship. It's 1-2 days to offload, depending on the shape things are in there. So what, that takes at the most 6 ships to handle Ponce 24/7? There are 40 to 50 thousand US flagged cargo ships, plus Sealift Command has hundreds just waiting around. We can stuff 10,000 containers in Ponce in less than a week, no problem. That's IF it's operating at peak. But then what? Can they handle them from there? There's a lot more to the logistics then available ships. A lot. All this not withstanding the fact that they are using mostly barges anyway, (which there's no shortage of either) probably because they can jam them in on any accessible wharf space in San Juan.
The waiver has nothing to do with the ability to re-supply PR. It has to do with US (and probably PR) politics. "Trump is screwing the brown people again!" I'd add it's not ol' John McCain's first day in the political saddle.
It's so awesome that you so easily brush off the only way Puerto Rico gets stuff as it should be so easy, so they don't need the same shipping waiver that Florida and Texas really didn't need.
Btw, the waiver also allows the cruise ships to move people between US ports, too.
Thanks for caring. Shows your true colors.

What that article does point out is PR continues to get screwed over in its "territory that's not a state that's basically its own country" status.Cornell University

Well lets see, the GOP calls Warren "Liawatha" I am sure we could find some cute name for Jared the Lady"It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

Jared is just faking being progressive to win a few anti-gender votes. Don't fall for it.Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

(CNN) Friends of Trumpy say he is feeling "embarrassed and p****d" about Strange losing. He also feels like he is "losing to Steve Bannon." Think about that. The US President is depressed because he feels he is "losing" some p***ing contest to a random unemployed guy named "Steve." This is the world we live in. #modernpresidentialHuskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot.
