The Reflecting Pool on the National Mall has already begun to grow algae just days after President Donald Trump’s major renovation project was officially completed.

The landmark has been the subject of controversy since the project began, with critics pointing to budget ballooning from a little under $2 million to a staggering $14 million. Trump contracted Atlantic Industrial Coatings for the project to be completed ahead of the celebrations for the 250th anniversary of America.

    I don’t doubt he is that petty but I also wouldn’t be surprised if he is just too stupid to know what to do on how own so just does whatever Obama did as president like following a little “how to president for dummies” guidebook.

      He did basically copy Obama’s inauguration his first time (although a shittier version), and of course, Melania ripped off Michelle Obama’s speech.

      Fascists just really can’t create anything.
