What’s wild is that he or his admin were claiming they had photo and/or video evidence of someone cutting the pool.
More journalists need to ask him and his bootlicks why they lied about it earlier. And frame it that way: “if you are admitting you have no evidence now, why did you lie about that earlier?”
We all have evidence of who wrecked it. This is him taking his motorcade across it right after it was sealed:
President Donald Trump took an unannounced trip to the Lincoln Memorial to see the Reflecting Pool after he had it coated in a color he calls “American flag blue.” He did more than just see it — the president was driven across the new coating before he got out of his SUV to make a statement. The new blue coating will hide the pool’s gray stone, a color Trump said was “never good.” The project cost nearly $2 million, he said.
One common element of fascism is that problems, even problems that were obviously made by the fascists themselves, are opportunities to blame “others.”
Usually, these others are a category of people who the fascists wish to victimize, but they can literally be anybody convenient, like in this case.
Fascists will also even blame other fascists who supported them in the past. Just look at how often Trump blames and fires people who he appointed and who were only doing what he wanted them to do.
Trump nonetheless again accused Hearn – who pleaded not guilty to a felony destruction of property charge in July and has maintained he didn’t damage the pool – of intentional vandalism.
Trump acknowledges he tried to ruin an Olympian’s life because he’s a shitty piss baby loser.

Lawsuit.
Accomplished people piss him off.
