Trump Goon Melts Down Over Trump's Reflecting Pool Leaks

[Zorro]

Two prior tests to ensure the leaks in the pool were sealed were unsuccessful.

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum lashed out at claims that the Reflecting Pool at the Lincoln Memorial was already leaking as the Trump administration scrambled to finish the $13.1 million renovations in time for the Fourth of July.

The massive pool spanning more than 2,000 feet has had leaks for decades. President Donald Trump has vowed to fix it while bragging about other pools he’s built.

But according to documents reviewed by the New York Times, the contractor’s effort to seal the gaps failed in two trials earlier this month, leaving the Park Service and the company rushing to come up with a fix.

The Interior Department declined to say if a solution had been found before the Times report dropped, but afterward, Burgum fired back, accusing it of “TDS” or “Trump Derangement Syndrome” and claimed it “ignored the facts” in a lengthy 9-post rant on X.

3. Fill the whole damn thing to the top with acrylic resin, the stuff they make novelty paperweights with.

It's clear, looks like water, won't leak, and all they'll ever have to do for maintenance is sweep off debris and leaves and mop it occasionally.

But don't give Trump this suggestion because he'd probably do it.
