The Reflecting Pool is a perfect metaphor for the Trump administration:
- Ignore experts and science
- Overspend
- Declare early, historic victory
- "THE LEFT HATE THIS"
- Ends in total failure
- Unfounded conspiracies about sabotage
- MAGA pretends it doesn't actually matter
ABC News' Jonathan Karl reports from the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool where workers continue to battle algae – and the new paint job appears to be falling apart.
The Department of Interior did not immediately respond to a request for comment. https://t.co/7TzBngVdyc
We. Told. You. It. Wouldn't. Work.
HAHAHAH. It only affected the edges - and now there is a nice wide neon strip of algae in the center of the Reflecting Pool. Fucking idiots. Complete morons. 🤣😂😭
Holy shit!! There are huge chunks of blue paint coming off the reflecting pool already…
It seems the peroxide loosened things up, yikes!!
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAILURE.
📸 Great photo of @JoeBiden and @DrBiden with the Obamas, Bushes, and Clintons in Chicago today.
This is America. Not what is currently in the White House.
When the illusion finally shatters, what’s left isn’t just disappointment,it’s total embarrassment.
The man you invested your faith in isn’t a savior at all, just an empty act stitched together with arrogance, noise, and relentless self-promotion.
All that confidence, all those grand promises, all the swagger,it collapses into something painfully small the moment it’s tested against reality.
There’s no hidden genius, no bold disruptor underneath it all.
Just a loud, impulsive figure flailing through responsibilities he clearly wasn’t equipped to handle, drowning incompetence in a flood of bluster.
In the end, what once looked like strength turns out to be nothing more than cheap theatrics.
Not leadership,just a gaudy performance.
A caricature.
A spectacle.
And the real sting isn’t that it was absurd,it’s realizing how long it took to admit you were taken in by all his bullshit....
After watching Trump melt down in narcissistic rage this morning, I’m close to saying that the entire U.S. government needs to be impeached for allowing this poseur to remain in office for even one more day.
No nation in history has ever had a more mentally ill leader.
Katie Phang on the murder of 60 Minutes: "What the Ellisons have done to CBS has now transcended just being a red flag — it is a huge honking warning sign of what is to come to CNN. And look, you may not be a fan of CNN, but we should always be rooting for the independence of our media. And yet we've seen time and time again, mainstream legacy media bending the knee and capitulating to the demands of a fucking toddler in the White House."
Jennifer Welch: “Boycott every fucking thing on CBS News. From the morning all the way through to the evening. These are the same people that fired Stephen Colbert because Trump got his feelings hurt by a comedian. These people are the biggest bunch of pussies that masquerade with these grandstanding letters like they’re such badasses. These people don’t care about the truth, they don’t care about journalism, they don’t care about the Constitution, they don’t care about a free press. It’s just absolutely devastating what these oligarchs have done to our country”
