@SenateGOP Interesting but Trump will never sign it.
Trump 1/29/2026: "I don't want to drive housing prices down. I want to drive housing prices up for people that own their homes". Has said making homebuying too easy and too cheap risks reducing property values.
@FoxNews@seanhannity "After it was painted and before it was filled, a motorcade comprised of 60 tons of vehicles (including one seven-ton limo called "The Beast'") drove over a reflecting pool not built for traffic. Now the new pool surface is cracked and leaking. I think we found the vandals."
@Acyn I'd go with lousy job by contactor - due some or all of the following: prep work, product, adhesion on grey rocks Trump thought ugly (could cause air bubbles), not cured enough, or Trump's 15 carb motorcade driving on it? But gotta blame anyone but himself or someone he hired.
@PressSec But abusers of Epstein victims - that's ok..... And think Trump's 15 car motorcade driving on the surface before it was totally cured (if even done right) might also have caused the coating to detach? Maybe we could arrest him for vandalism?
@Adventures82485@MVR3DX@RepRudyYakym@Interior@SecretaryBurgum Several reasons why happened and yes, most fall into "did a sh*tty" job" column.
Poor surface preparation/contamination of stones
Hydrogen peroxide used to treat algae
Coating not cured long enough
Adhesive issues
Poor product selection
Also possible Trump driving on it May 8
@WhiteHouse May 8: Trump went on unannounced trip to see Reflecting Pool after he had it coated in a color he calls "American flag blue."
He did more than just see it - [Trump] was driven across new coating before he got out of his SUV to make a statement and answer questions from reporters.
@LindseyGrahamSC ..... Meanwhile:
Israel's Far-Right national security minister Itamar Ben Gvir in response to news of deal:
“For every tear of an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep. All of Lebanon must burn!”
But let's keep supporting Israel because it's "defending itself"?
@LindseyGrahamSC Strait not open. Oil is not gushing and the market based on AI tech. If military gone then why is Trump letting Iran keep missiles because other countries have them? .....
@WhiteHouse Lindsey Graham this morning on CBS's "Face the Nation". Nothing like escalating the situation AGAIN.
"If this deal fails, Trump is going to take the strait over by force. The United States will control the strait. We will charge a fee for those who go through."
Yet Iran can't?
@SnideMofo@TraceyHagz@TrumpTruthOnX If it wasn't peeling people couldn't take pieces off. Why coating could be peeling - all sounding avoidable.
Poor surface preparation/contamination
Chemical damage from hydrogen peroxide used to treat algae
Coating not cured long enough
Adhesive issues
Poor product selection
@TrumpTruthOnX "We will fix it" question mark? Freudian slip?
And "vandalism" is probably due to pouring hydrogen peroxide into the pool to "clean" the algae thus damaging coating. Wonder the cost to recoat as the hydrogen peroxide probably voided any warranty, if there was one to begin with.
@fuzzyfamily1@FoxNews@SundayBriefFNC Hearn was touching piece of coating already rising to the surface. The "vandals" would be the Park Service employees who poured hydrogen peroxide into the pool to "clean" algae thus damaging coating. Wonder the cost to recoat as the hydrogen peroxide probably voided any warranty.
@WhiteHouse Even daughters that aren't his - or is she? Plot twist: That's not his daughter. That's Margo Catsimatidis, wife of billionaire John Catsimatidis, from a decades-old photo.
@GuntherEagleman [Park service] "workers dumping gallon bottles of chemical into pool, which turned green due to algae. Park service using hydrogen peroxide [and] advanced filtration system to break down toxins and contaminants in the pool, DOI spokesperson said. https://t.co/MY6yTTuWST
@WhiteHouse@POTUS What no pictures of all the gold? And in other Trump news: "Respect for the office and institution" while he tears down the East Wing and gilds the Oval Office? That was a good laugh. @JDVance
