The urgent, desperate need to fix the Reflecting Pool!

[JoeB131]

You mean the problems that Obama spent 34 million dollars on fixing 14 years ago? 2.4 million/yr seems like an awfully expensive pool fix.

Well, if they were just fixing the pool, yes. But they also fixed the walkways around the pool and renovated the entire park.

As opposed to Cheeto Hitler, who just funneled a no-bid contract to his pool guy to paint it blue.

TDS…nothing more. This entire uproar is just ridiculous. 13 million dollars is a pittance by government standards. The 13 million will cover the following.

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is undergoing repairs to fix leaks, seal the basin with an industrial-grade coating called "American Flag Blue," and enhance its reflective quality. Additionally, the project includes deep cleaning to remove algae and sediment, as well as reinforcing structural joints and restoring the pump house and filtration system.

He isn’t just having it painted, but that is the narrative the MSM is pushing and like good little lapdogs, people like you lap it up.

Again, if he had gone through the regular competitive bidding process and did a complete engineering analysis, I would have less of a problem.

But, no, let's just slip 13 million to Trump's Pool Guy on a no-bid contract and slap a coat of blue paint on it so it will look nice for the July 4th celebration.

What part do you not understand about PRIVATELY FUNDED PROJECTS NOT REQUIRING OPEN BIDDING?
As far as your stupid, idiotic, misinformed complaint about the only work being done is painting it blue:
Draining, cleaning, and resurfacing
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is undergoing a significant renovation project that includes draining, cleaning, and resurfacing the nearly century-old basin. The work aims to scrub algae and debris, apply a protective resurfacing system, and modernize systems that control water quality. This project is part of preparations for the nation's 250th anniversary events and involves a multi-million dollar no-bid contract awarded to a firm with ties to President Trump. The renovation is expected to be completed by the end of May, but there are concerns from preservationists about the rushed timeline and the lack of public scrutiny in the contracting process.

With all of those important current events, you choose to ignore them and talk about yet another mean tweet.

But, that's what Rachel Maddow told you to think about, and it seems that you have given up your cognitive autonomy long since, so it's not your fault beyond that.

With all of those important current events, the President chooses to tweet about things which are irrelevant - like the 2020 election which he lost to Joe Biden, or hating on people who criticize him.

Rachael Maddow doesn't tell her viewers what to think. She provides them with information and lets them make up their own minds about it. She informs people and exposes the lies and misinformation Trump spews daily.

But he does that in a spare time.

You are officially an a cult.

The local city government of D.C.is ghetto. Trump is sprucing up the city. If I lived there, I would appreciate it.

Yes but we, the American people, don't. Is this what you voted for?
