"3000 people did not die in the two hurricanes that hit Puerto Rico," Trump tweeted in a tirade on Thursday morning. "When I left the Island, AFTER the storm had hit, they had anywhere from 6 to 18 deaths."
Almost a year after Hurricane Maria swept through the island of Puerto Rico, leaving devastation in its wake, the government of the island has revised its own surprisingly low statistics for how many deaths the storm caused.
Protesters gathered outside the United Nations on Saturday to make their voices heard following recent news that new death toll estimates in Puerto Rico from Hurricane Maria greatly exceeded the official number provided by the Puerto Rican government.
The reported death toll of 64 might be 70 times higher, according to an independent study led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health researchers.
