The National Mall's Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is now a virtual swamp reflecting the Trump regimes corruption.
It's a potent metaphor for the incompetence that Trump has brought into the White House in his second go-around.
Visitors walking by the Reflecting Pool these days are treated to the sight of a full algae bloom with workers slowly walking through the green muck and scooping it up with nets. I can't imagine how many foreign visitors were impressed by this Trump beautification project.
A beautification project that started out supposedly costing $1.5 million magically swelled to $14 million with results less than satisfactory...to put it mildly.
Tuesday Morning.
In a desperate measure park officials dumped gallons of hydrogen peroxide into the reflecting pool. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported that the 12 percent concentrate that the workers are pouring in is a level that can cause problems if inhaled and burns if the chemical touches the skin.
Officials say the process could pose a risk to some of the pool's frequent visitors, such as ducks or other birds.
MAGA minions quickly accused liberals of sabotage and vandalism to cover up for dear leaders' stupidity. The real problem is the pool's pipes and filter system. They have to be improved.
The whole boondoggle is reflective of the corrupt regime's pollution of government at all levels.
Trump's other beautification projects in Washington DC have raised eyebrows and spawned court lawsuits.
The most recent lawsuit involves West Potomac Park, an area that includes several memorials, including the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial. He wants to build what he calls a "National Garden of American Heroes" on the site.
The swamp in the White House gets deeper daily as one Trump lawyer argued in court that he can bulldoze down the State of Liberty, if he wants to.
As it Stands, the source of this whole swampy scenario is Trump who ironically once coined the phrase "Drain the Swamp."
