How much will this refurbishing of the last refurbish cost? I smell a rat! The pool will need refurbishing as long as the felon can skim money off of it.

But the "corrosive and destructive" chemicals had no effect on the algae. 'Tis a mystery.

& how much more is that gonna cost stable genius?

FFS! I can't with this bonehead!

Wait, he going to arrest the people that poured hydrogen peroxide in the pool on the orders of someone in his administration?

Anybody going to tell him that he is the vandal?

Where this BS narrative will break down is when we see the contractors do everything they were supposed to do the first time, like sandblast the granite and apply a primer coat. That will be their confession of guilt, and Trump's attempt to pin it on fictional vandals will be exposed as a lie.

So, are Trump's feds going to put up the usual ugly black fence?

Remove the damn paint

It’s clear that neither he nor his mobster builder should be anywhere near it. Can @normeisen.bsky.social sue him?

Let's see the results of that water testing for "corrosive" chemicals.

Two weeks?

Anyone waiting for Trump to ever admin he screwed up is going to be waiting for something that is never going to happen. Trump is just going to triple-down.

It hasn't looked or worked like this since 1922 is a true statement.

He only worries about trivial stuff. He delegates the actual work. Because is both incapable and lazy. Unfit.

Absolutely sir @helldude.bsky.social

Draining the swamp

Clearly the most important thing happening our country right now. So important that it demands the personal attention of the POTUS. It can’t possibly be left to the capable management of the experts within the agency charged with care and maintenance of monuments. 🙄

The reflecting pool never reflected anything before? FFS dude I am so tired of him forcing his decrepit brain into our lives

bsky.app/profile/funm...

Amaze amaze amaze

Why would he do that? They are his buddies!

"We". Some overworked Department of the Interior Contracting Officer now has a corrupt political hack on his ass.

A message to t*ump

DO YOU DO POOLS?

So if the bill is up to $14 million so far, what is this going to cost in the end? Do we just double it at this point? Say $28 million????

😂😂👍

Absolutely not, I'm in full agreement with you.

This man jumping into the pool will empty the whole pool.

We'll sell it to you cheap!

When he says "get it repaired" I bet you it's going to go back to the way it was before all of this bullshit and he's going to proclaim success.

I don't have any urge to laugh when I consider what these claims of vandalism seem to be setting up in terms of policing public space. Who are the "additional" people arrested, and who were the original arrested people they are in addition to?

Exclusive photos of vandals sabotaging the reflecting pool!

lol this is so ridiculous

Quite simply because...nothing can EVER be his fault.

truly disgusting. now they are ruining a man's live - an Olympian, no less - just to cover for the mad President

Of course 😂 so predictable

🤣

Great! How many more millions of dollars is he going to give his incompetent friends to “fix” it?

Of course. Drain it now, scrub it down, leave it empty until dawn on July 4 so no algae can grow before nightfall. The one thing he knows is scamming.

Our president, laser focused on the needs of the American people. It's like Russ Vought told grandpa he had the very important job of cleaning the pool.

The buck never stops with him. Never.

A 250m gash, unnoticed, in one of the most heavily surveilled places in the US. It's about as ridiculous as his "$1.7bn in cash" nonsense from the other week.

Everyone seems to try to make sense of this it’s what normal people do BUT we are long past anything normal or correct with this crazy

So am I correct to read this as not only will we pay more taxpayer money to “fix” the “beautifully fixed” pool, but will be paying extra-extra to expedite it for someone’s fragile ego?

So a skyscraper amount of green water.

Surely there is surveillance of the area. Has anyone checked in with the FBI director?

So he’s going to grift more money to his buddies.

You’re funny.

The thing about the reflecting pool is that this pedophile is still illegally hiding the Epstein files.

Who did he arrest?

Here comes another fuck-up.

Now here is a supplier that Trump should not pay, but he is likely getting a personal kick back so we know that ain't happening.

Sounds like another meeting in the Sit Room trying to cover up Trump's fiasco. Do the no-bid contractors get paid again, or will they hire competent people this time?

What's the betting Trump says it will take two weeks?

Uh-oh, I can see this costing the taxpayers yet another $15M. Oh well, it's only money, right?

And maybe not drive the president through it, next time. Maybe this is the source of the “vandalism “ Armor several inches thick * Reinforced floor to resist explosions * Run-flat tires * Independent oxygen supply * Advanced communications equipment

It’s funny because I think many of us can already tell attempt #1 to fix this problem is going to fail too. 🤦🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️🤦🤦‍♀️🤦🤦‍♀️

Sure more taxpayer money down the fkn drain

What an absolute moron.

😆😆😆😅

I can’t remember the last time I saw even a short video clip of Trump speaking where he didn’t lie. Anybody?

"They also poured corrosive and destructive chemicals into the Pool." - Orange Turd It was TRUMPS National Park Service crews poured containers of 12% hydrogen peroxide into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

Whenever Trump is struggling he defaults to construction projects - the only thing he even vaguely understands. It’s quite telling.

What a cest pool.

Taxpayers

Jesus Christ this is absolute madness! His lies are so deft, and so pathetic. THIS administration is the one that poured chemicals into the pool. What a pathetic soul.

Doesn’t he have a war (excursion) to deal with or a family gathering to avoid??

Paging C Levitt …

Yes, doing it as quickly as possible definitely didn’t impact the first attempt.

Two weeks. Tops.

He'll spreed run it to get it all done by July 4th, then he didn't care what it looks like. He just needs the pictures to show it as a nice for his party.

Yes…a ridiculous unneeded joy ride

There are TSA agents looking at this post with the sinking feeling that they'll be guarding the reflecting pool round the clock next month.

I want a refund

Is he really claiming that water now is more reflective than water was before? That the reflecting pool wasn't reflecting until he ... what, blessed it with his deal making skills?

20 excuses in one tweet.

Don’t give him ideas - he’ll sell strips of it. Remember when he sold scraps of his old suit.

I waaaaaaant one, it's so, so fucking funny, I NEED it.

The meme needs Bluto holding his nose so more people recognize it

Sorry this is the only picture I saved from his post. I find it hilarious that he was dissing Obama for how the reflecting pool looked. I can always hear him saying "Barack HOOOSSEIN!!! Obama"

Well, imagine that! Having to drain a pool to repair it, another insightful statement from the buffoon in chief.

And no one can stop people filming the mess after drainage?

I’m like 99 percent sure the past six months are the plot of Omen 3?!??

Soylent green is people. It’s people!!!!!

The reflecting pool now perfectly reflects his presidency. Couldn't have come up with anything better. bsky.app/profile/atru...

the absolute complete denial of science and what happens when you hire crony donors with no experience in the project gifted to them as a big thanks for the money

Damned lunatic.

Science is a vandal. #2026

Ya think?

youtu.be/aLnZ1NQm2uk?... "It's all about the bass" 86/47 Donald Swamp sharks👎

Can you drain and not release or release and not drain that water?

I really want to know what he’s being told, and who is telling it. This has “Russian military” levels of corruption and incompetence.

It is illegal to dump that H2O2 tainted water into the Potomac!

yes, but at least $14 million every few weeks to fix the previous fix to the reflecting pool costs less than $1 billion a day to bomb school girls sitting in a classroom.

Stupid breeze

I would respect him so much more if he could just say “I fucked this up” and move on but of course he’s completely incapable of that

If this my family member, relative, friend….they are going straight to the hospital. The fact that there are [sane] people on here actually making sense of this is what is maybe slightly more insane.

Do pools have facades? Isn’t he supposed to have a basic understanding of architectural terms if he’s donnie the greatest builder ever known?
