Why can't we solve the water crisis in Puerto Rico? (Sarah Laskow)

Back in September, when Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico, 44 percent of local residents were left without safe drinking water. But according to Sarah Laskow, author of the Atlas Obscura article “The Hidden  Problems With Puerto Rico’s Water Supply,” the island’s water infrastructure was already in deep trouble before Maria hit, from a combination of leaky pipes, a high concentration of toxic Superfund sites and the natural geography of the area. On this week’s TrumpWatch, Jesse asks Sarah how we got here and what it will  take to get Puerto Rico’s water system to work for all of the people living there.
