Trump is doing what he does best -- reshaping reality into a narrative that suits his needs.
In Puerto Rico, he will now hammer away at the story-line he wants to create, through Tweets and sound bites: " Puerto Rico officials bad, incompetent, corrupt. Donald Trump, good, knowledgeable, generous."
Truth to Trump is a malleable abstraction, something that can be bludgeoned into any shape he wants, and pitched to the public as another "tremendous" accomplishment on his part.  Then he will move on to the next crisis and do the same.
This is the sum of the man. 
A genius at communication. But a hollow, amoral, scary human being.
