Donald Trump positioned himself as a swimming pool expert as he touted the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool renovations he ordered this year, having put in “more than 100” over his career.
But after spending $14 million in taxpayer funds, the Reflecting Pool now looks arguably worse than it did before.
Aside from the bright green hue of the water — the product of what is reportedly one of the largest algae blooms in recent years — the “industrial-grade swimming pool topping” that Trump chose is already peeling off in sheets.



Sell pieces of those defective paint sheets just like trump sold little pieces of his suit. This would be a big sale deal for most just thinking individuals. Having a piece of history like that would be incredible! (~Shhh…don’t tell trump though~).
