You dont need 32 Years Experience as a Painter to see this is Not Vandalism @GuntherEagleman@WhiteHouse
This is what I mean when I say look at the failure pattern. The edges are irregular and the coating appears to be releasing beyond one small spot.
A blade may lift material that has already failed but it does not explain why a properly bonded system is coming loose in broad, uneven sections.
Release the prep logs, primer/topcoat system, cure schedule, thickness readings, and independent inspection. Taxpayers deserve facts, not excuses.

These assholes drove right over the coating. It's not even a vehicular traffic coating (which is meant to be driven on), and they're wondering why it's pealing? Was it even cured? These people are fucking stupid and can't own up to their own mistakes.
@noturtlesoup17 His sweeping motion is driving me crazy. He’s blowing it into the wind, particles drying in air.
Should be pointed directly at surface with full length passes.
.@GunnySpeaksOut has a message for Donald Trump: monuments are supposed to honor principles, sacrifice, and service. NOT a single politician. The "Arc De Trump" is a slap in the face to all veterans and military families. It's time to speak out against this would-be monstrosity before it's too late.
The idiots drove a presidential motorcade - including the 10-ton "Beast" that transports the president - across a newly laid liner for the Reflecting Pool. Who's brilliant idea was that? Now the liner is damaged and peeling off and they are blaming "vandals". A photo of the vandals is shown here.
If you touch water you are apprehended by police.
If you molest kids with Jeffrey Epstein you are moved to a luxury prison and considered for a pardon.
TRUMP’S AMERICA.
This is ABC journalist Jonathan Karl’s video of the peeling paint that Trump claims implicated the reporter in a crime.
Looks like he’s simply doing his job.
Maybe the President should do his!
The President of the United States deployed the National Guard… to stop kids from splashing in the reflecting pool.
Not the troops' fault…they follow orders.
But what the fu*k are we doing here?
BREAKING: Rep. Ted Lieu is publicly calling on the White House to answer growing questions surrounding reports that an unidentified 79-year-old man received exclusive access to a powerful experimental drug through the FDA’s compassionate use program.
“The White House needs to come clean,” Lieu said. “Did Donald Trump get this special drug?”
Lieu: Trump overpaid on a no-bid contract to a pool guy who was a total amateur and messed up the Reflecting Pool, and now Trump’s fragile ego has him trying to cover this up by saying someone did a 350-foot gash in the pool. This pool has 24/7 cameras on it. So we’re in a place where the president is just lying because he can’t handle that he totally screwed up the Reflecting Pool.
This isn’t a “lining” that is peeling. It’s a water proof paint/coating that wasn’t intended for the surface it was used on, or applied without the proper preparation.
I have a swimming pool and “vandals” can’t peel the bottom off of it. It also didn’t cost $14 million.
