    Poor Puerto Ricans. Considered both American and not American at the same time.

    Also, does Morgan not consider Ricky Martin as white? He appeared on the show!

      Let’s not forget that they are subject to taxes yet lack any representation.

      I’m pretty sure I remember a country that was pretty pissed off about that in the past…

        They are not subject to Federal taxes (except FICA if you count that but they receive those benefits), which is just one of the reasons statehood polls in Puerto Rico tend to be relatively divided.

      If Bad Bunny, a boricua, isn’t white to Morgan, then Ricky Martin, a boricua, wouldn’t be white either
