Trump blames 'sick, deranged people' for Reflecting Pool damage

Ray Radlein34

As others have pointed out, there are 24 hour webcams pointed at the reflecting pool. The entire INTERNET knows no one has been vandalizing it

CallsignBaker 254720

Minnesota ANTIFA admits responsibility and would like to take credit. We sent our dreams, thoughts and prayers 🙏 for the pool to go completely to shit and embarrass the orange dicktator. Dream Police 🚔 are being deployed against us as soon as they arrest pool observers having bad thoughts.

MJ Howson16

Every headline about this story should begin with, “Trump doesn’t understand science. Is he mentally ill?”

Freedah Kaylow13

He did. With his motorcade. He drove his whole motorcade over the blueprint before it cured. He did it.

Buddahcjcc8

It will soon be effectively illegal to be NEAR the reflecting pool, as he's having ppl that touch the torn paint arrested.

Rose7

It’s everyone’s else fault but his.

Breck Wilhite7

God forbid Trump ever admit he fucked up.

vamazz0516.bsky.social7

Soo sick of all his lies, big and small. Horrible horrible person.

Question is, who is going to stop this nut job of a con man? The current state of affairs are scarier than anything you've ever written. No way anyone can come up with this scary shit!

Robert Fischoff5

The question is whether anyone at all believes his insane and obvious lying accusation? And how are the complicit corporate media reporting this?

Aj Rez 🗿5

Oh, it was vandalized, alright. By the schmuck paid $14m to "fix" it.

DBdant5

Don't forget the extra heavy presidential motorcade driving down the middle. That pool wasn't built to endure that kind of weight.

Mkorolden5

The interesting thing about algae in the reflecting pool is that Trump is in the #EpsteinFiles and he’s willing to do anything to cover it up.

digiwallsstudio.bsky.social5

He is incapable of memorializing or celebrating any other human. We will never heal until he's gone. Republicans by association have no beliefs in anything other than cash and power.

Tranquility Deprived4

Children blame others for their mistakes. The dog has eaten Trumps homework his entire life. He is pathetic.

Serenity4

If I had to venture a guess, probably only 25% of the budget to "fix" the pool actually was spent on it.

Pops always called Donald a loser. Maybe not the best parenting skills at work - but Don still is an incompetent loser, and a spendthrift - on our dime.

Any chance you could whip up some sort of storyline plot to hold him accountable, that might slip slide into our day to day reality, Stephen? It'd really be appreciated. 🙂 By almost every human being on the planet.

wendyinneverland.bsky.social3

And innocent people are being arrested, including a 67 year old 3 time Olympian, and will have to defend themselves because the narcissist cannot admit to his own failure and what better than to use as red meat to his followers.

Happy Fox2

He can say what he wants, ofc he had to go make a swamp like nobody's ever seen before... He should be happy it works like a smokescreen for all the other terrible things he does. I for one care less about his pool

singerindy.bsky.social2

In the same vein, the ballroom will be beset with numerous flaws, from cracking foundation/walls, to mold, etc. It'll need to be demolished/rebuilt fairly quickly just as the reflecting pool. No-bid crony contracts, corruption skimming off funds, rushed construction timeline, & subpar inspections.

Bruno Kallok2

Has he blamed anyone for "eating the ducks"?😡😡

Not Going Back2

Trump has failed at everything since birth. His parents and teachers couldn't control him. They called him, "unteachable." He's also pathological and sociopathic, incapable of empathy, or ever admitting fault. If not born into wealth, he would've been in prison yrs ago.

Mike Bloom24

Trump can't even win a war on algae, what makes him think he can win in Iran?

Jack N22

More people have been arrested for “crimes” at the Reflecting Pool than for crimes documented in the Epstein Files.

It is now the deflecting pool. Release the Epstein Files. Release the Epstein Files. Release the Epstein Files. Pass it on.

And we thought he was sending the national guard to the polls, not the pools. Maybe someone misread the memo.

Real_I_am_Groot9

Folks! Trump’s Play #1: Say something exists that doesn’t. (Vandals hurting the pool) And then eliminating that thing and claiming victory. Trump Play #2 create a story about a conspiracy that doesn’t exist. And then claiming that the fact nobody can find evidence of it - is proof that it exists.

Tooey9

I want off this timeline.

Randy N.8

WTF? Doesn't the Reflecting Pool belong to We The People? The local DC cops and Park Police are arresting citizens for sticking their hands in the fucking water or touching pieces of the loose liner? Being charged with vandalism? The regime is out of control. Trump is the vandal.

Trump is America's Memory Care Rorschach test. You only believe today's pile of bullshit out of the WH by forgetting (or in the case of the MAGA cult, ignoring) the previous 40,000 bald-face lies.

Richard H17

Think about it, the whole Reflecting Pool debacle was caused by the fact, that in tRump’s simplistic brain, he can only associate the word “pool” with “Swimming Pool”. So he needed to have it coated like a swimming pool, because only that would make it look blue like his brain thinks it should.

So, Trump is being Trump. His narcissism prevents him from ever accepting blame for anything. This should be a national talking point in the media. Every headline should lead with this issue.

Epstein on Trump: "your world [of lawyers] does not understand how dumb he really is. he will blame everyone around him for bad results."

🤔 Trump basically saying today; 🤔 "they are eating the Paint." "The people that came in, they are eating the Reflection Pool Paint." "They're eating the Reflection Pool Paint of the people that live there." 🫤

The Trump Regime narratives on the reflecting pond. 1. Only Trump can fix it and Trump will fix it. 2. Trump fixed it and it is beautiful. How can the libs hate on this beautiful result? 3. The algae is "residual" and expected. It will soon be gone. 4. Antifa sabotaged the pool.

j2h2.bsky.social2

The only fix is to convert it to a putting green!

Mickey2

Everyone in the world knows who’s responsible for this. Just like bombing Iran. Tearing down the East Wing. The vulgar display on the White House lawn. An insurrection. Mismanaging Covid. The Epstein files. A 34 time convicted fraud and sex offender. I could go on. But it all makes me sick. 🤢

Pere Jes2

NOOO! Seriously, he's between a rock and a hard place. He can't allow himself to be seen as incompetent while the world watches the water drain out yet again. Those darn vandals!

Jill Selkowitz2

Well by not taking responsibility, taxpayers will pay again rather than his workers redoing at their expense. However that color blue he picked is problematic.

K. Moore 🦋📚🎼51

it‘s pointless expecting Trump to accept any responsibility, ok, but he goes next level and blames innocent people of vandalism, wants to jail them for years, so now everyone from the National guard to Pirro have to maintain the illusion. It’s a sickening abuse of power.

vantazach43

there are reports that photosynth-ISIS is taking credit

pb63.bsky.social41

Did he just call himself “sick and deranged”?

Emily32

lol, I like the question mark in "We will fix it?" The answer is: No, you won't.

Steve (Something’s Coming 🫣🤫)31

He just inspected it, did he? I'm guessing somebody either took pictures on their phone or he looked out the window of the White House from however many 100 yards away that is to do his inspection because I bet $1,000,000 he didn't go anywhere near that damn pool. Prove me wrong I hope you can 🙄

sifighter.bsky.social22

Dude we can all naturally see you fucked it up with your choice in paint and then the peroxide used to clean the algae. We can literally see the progression of how it all happened

Wildcat728115

The Reflecting Pool has security cameras that are monitored 24-7 by the National Park Service. There is a publicly accessible live stream as well. So how is it the NPS has yet to produce video of the Pool being Vandalized? This should be simple to prove or Trump is full of shit. He’s full of shit.

Cognitive Dissidents13

The... the person you hired did it, Trumpy.

Doug Johnson 🇨🇦13

How about an investigation? The Safety Data Sheet for concentrated H2O2, a legal negligence benchmark, has clear warnings that directly conflict with dumping it recklessly into a wildlife-populated water body. The "maintenance procedures" should face a due diligence test under federal wildlife law.

Dr. Quinn12

"We will fix it?" Please, don’t let them "fix it." Vandals. What an irresponsible asshole. He can’t even fix a pool. Why do we allow him to destroy D.C., to remain in office, to go to war, to scuttle diplomacy? Why can’t we get control of this criminal?

slutcyclist extraordinaire, rimmin' the world11

He most certainly did not "inspect it" lmao.. hey, keep arresting people that touch it

Pere Jes9

So the "vandalism" of the past few days has morphed into a claim that the pool was "seriously vandalized." No proof, no nothin' but trump saying that's what it was. Someone please go through the camera footage and show us the proof.

Trump vandalized the reflecting pool, the Kennedy Center & the White House itself. Thus far he has not suffered any consequences. Imagine where you would be, if you had done any of these things.

It’s funny that he doesn’t get that the delamination is proof that the product wasn’t installed properly. When polyurethane is installed on a clean compatible surface, it cannot be peeled off. Even if it were vandalized it is just proof that the product wasn’t prepped and installed properly.

This of course, ignores the existence of the many many many surveillance cameras in the area that you can just watch.
