President Donald Trump’s decision to have his motorcade drive across the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool during a high-profile inspection last month is facing renewed scrutiny, as questions mount over whether the move may have contributed to damage now plaguing the newly renovated landmark. Video accounts showed that Trump’s convoy drove over the drained, newly sealed basin in May as part of a tour of the project, which had been repainted “American flag blue” ahead of the nation’s 250th anniversary. In the weeks that followed, the pool began showing signs of deterioration, including peeling coating. While experts and fact-checkers note that it remains unclear whether the heavy vehicles directly caused the damage, the timing has fueled debate over whether the motorcade’s weight might have compromised the freshly treated surface.

Please.
Just STFU.
You people are sick with your knee-jerk Trump hatred.
Got get yourself a life instead of looking for ridiculous little incidents that you think make Trump look bad.

Why criticism is directed at Trump about his pool

Trump mocked Obama about his failure to fix the pool
He proclaimed his pool would be crystal clear and last 50 years
He awarded no bid contracts to buddies who had never done work like that before
Within two weeks, his pool was full of algae and its coating was coming off in big flakes
Rather than admit the pool was poorly done, Trump blamed imaginary vandals without any proof

The only thing, the one and only thing, dimocrap scum have is -- HATE.

You're all just full of hatred. Your mental illnesses are getting really tiresome.
As for the war, the final chapter has yet to be written. I know you're rooting for Iran to win but we're not there.
