Watch San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz Literally Turn Her Back on U.S. Constitution

San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz has scored political points among the sort of liberals who bring us the news by indulging in hysterical hyperbole after Hurricane Maria, and more importantly, by sparring with Trump. This ought to make her even more of a rock star among moonbats:

When taking the oath of office, Cruz delayed repeating the words that she would “uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States,” turning her back to the woman administering the oath for a long moment. …

After turning her back and pausing, Cruz does swear to defend the Constitution, and then enthusiastically repeats to uphold the Puerto Rican Constitution.

Her approval rating was as low as 24% earlier this year. She manages to prop it up by pandering to anti-American sentiment, much like the regimes in Cuba and Venezuela.

Here’s the appalling video. You don’t need to know Spanish to get the gist:

But she doesn’t mind taking our money, even though she denounces Trump for “throwing provisions at people.”

It is past time to cut Puerto Rico loose.
