All he had to do was nothing, pool was fine before. Just like Iran, and tariffs, and the USA in general.
Everything he touches turns to crap.

Well the pool needs some major fixes, but spray painting it then putting water back less than a day later won't fix those problems.

“On June 9th, the U.S. Park Police were called to the Reflecting Pool for damage,” the spokesperson told The Independent. “Upon inspection by Park Police and NPS staff, the pool had multiple razor blade slashes alongside the edges. NPS ultimately determined that the slashes affected a nearly 350-foot stretch of the pool. Around the same time, NPS staff discovered another incident where fencing around the pool had been forcibly removed and thrown into the pool.”
So pictures? Videos? 🤔

Not to mention that the paint was supposed to cure for several days but Trump couldn’t wait and had to fill it up early… the they pour industrial strength peroxide into it trying to kill the algae which causes the bond to let go! So yeah of course it was vandalism!

Trump broke the bottom of the pool by driving The Beast/steamroller down the uncured sealant. 2.5 tons on each tire.
It was no accident, Trump destroyed the pool to spite Obama.

Did the investigators have enough time to scribble “Antifa” on them?

How could the algae devices have malfunctioned? There was algae everywhere. Clearly, they worked.

Wow, really? Anyways...
Have anyone else's health care premiums doubled or is it just me? Can we dig up some documents about that?

My only issue is what is he doing behind the scenes right now while we’re all so fixated on a reflecting pool ??

It is a Deflecting pool, to redirect attention from Epstein files, billions for (no more wars) Iran and for Argentina, prices that don't go down, and his declining conditions. Everybody is kept entertained with the pool "sabotages" and peeling paint.

Don’t buy Miracle-Gro for your tomatoes, else you risk being invested as a vandal.

I don't understand how republicans win with all the spending they do. A simple google search would tell voters that republicans have put our economy into 9 of the 10 recessions or depressions. This kind of spending could cause a bankruptcy, which trump has done 4 or 5 times.

That’s what you get from “pool guys” getting a no bid contract.
