President Trump just shared this stunning image on Truth Social:
The Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool glowing in deep American flag blue.
Trump is having the Reflecting Pool thoroughly cleaned, repaired, and restored so it will once again be a true thing of beauty — ahead of America’s 250th anniversary.
Strength. History. American pride.
Do you like seeing the U.S. capital made clean and beautiful again?

🇺🇸 Henry Bacon didn’t just design the Lincoln Memorial, he also created the Reflecting Pool that stretches out in front of it.
More than 2,000 feet of still water.
It’s a symbol of reflection, unity, and American resilience. It unites the monuments and the sky.
Can’t wait to see it again 🫡🇺🇸
For more than a century, one of Washington's best-kept secrets lay beneath the Lincoln Memorial: the Undercroft, a soaring 50,000-square-foot foundation built to keep the landmark from sinking into D.C.'s swampy ground.
Beginning in June, the public will be able to visit the space, now with a museum tracing the memorial's history, from its construction to its role as a powerful stage for the civil rights movement. https://t.co/MbuiPK7DU1

To call Washington a "swamp" is a metaphor, but also the literal truth. So, when planning began for the Lincoln Memorial in the early 1910s, builders faced a real sinking problem. Their solution led to one of Washington's best-kept secrets, hidden for over a century … until now. https://t.co/5d4f1gPGPn
Part of the Lincoln Memorial undercroft project, the elevator is now open. With that done, the temporary accessibility ramp that was built on the front steps two years ago has now been removed. With a few finishing touches left, we're excited to show off this iconic American memorial later this summer. Learn more about the project at https://t.co/cLnOW1K3nM
