They are still in horrible condition ten months after Hurricane Maria - the problem is corruption, not the supply chain. From The New York Times:
Containers of Hurricane Donations Found Rotting in Puerto Rico Parking Lot
At least 10 trailers full of food, water and baby supplies donated for victims of Hurricane Maria were left to rot at a state elections office in Puerto Rico, where they broke open and became infested by rats.
Radio Isla, a local radio station, posted a video Friday showing cases of beans, water, Tylenol and other goods covered in rat and lizard droppings.
The Puerto Rico elections commission offices had been used as a collection center for goods donated from around the country for victims of the devastating hurricane that struck the island last year. For weeks, hurricane survivors lacked running water and electricity. Widespread power failures and a severe diesel shortage kept stores, restaurants and banks closed, making it difficult for people to purchase groceries.
This is just one example. You get the officials that you elect - they need a President Trump of their own. I have been there a couple of times - gorgeous country and really nice people.
