President Trump dedicated the United States' win in the Presidents Cup golf tournament to people in Puerto Rico recovering from the effects of Hurricane Maria.

"On behalf of all of the people of Texas and all of the people of -- if you look today and you see what's happening, how horrible it is, but we have it under really great control, Puerto Rico and the people of Florida that have really suffered over this short period of time with the hurricanes," Trump said.

"I want to just remember them. And we're going to dedicate this trophy to all of those people that went through so much that we love, a part of our great state and really a part of our great nation."

Trump has been criticized for his administration's response to the humanitarian crisis on the Caribbean island following Hurricane Maria striking the island last month. More than half of island doesn't have access to clean water and millions are without power after the hurricane hit on Sept. 21.

He spent much of Saturday tweeting about the crisis, including criticizing the mayor of the city's largest city, San Juan, for being critical of the government's response to the crisis.
