President Trump ripped the media Wednesday morning for its coverage of his trip to Puerto Rico on Tuesday.
“A great day in Puerto Rico yesterday. While some of the news coverage is Fake, most showed great warmth and friendship,” Trump tweeted Wednesday morning.

“Wow, so many Fake News stories today. No matter what I do or say, they will not write or speak truth. The Fake News Media is out of control!” Trump added, but did not specify which reports were false.

Trump and first lady Melania Trump spent all of Tuesday touring various regions of the U.S. territory island and seeing the devastation left behind by Hurricane Maria.
While in Puerto Rico, Trump praised the federal response to the natural disaster. However, he has urged the island’s residents to do more to help the government, and said the territory needs to do more to get its truck drivers working again.
