Trump’s Botched Renovation Comes With Another Ugly Surprise

The “temporary” fence that President Donald Trump erected to hide his botched renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is starting to look less and less temporary.

Trump, 80, has repeatedly blamed vandals for the slimy green algae and peeling blue paint that have plagued one of Washington, D.C.,’s iconic landmarks since the president launched his hasty $14.7 million makeover.

The pool has been fenced off since last month, and on Monday, Trump announced on Truth Social that the monument was being drained to fix 300-yard “slashes” in the pool, though nobody seems to be able to locate the alleged vandalism.
