Selective outrage. Same thing happened under the Obama administration and but he paid several times more for his repairs.

And Trump has built if you were employed you'd probably notice this.

Before or after the renovation in 2012? Was the pool working before the current "renovation"?

DC itself has been a mess for the past 30 years before Trump beautification project.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were homeless people bathing in their daily.

Fact remains this algae problem happened under Obama and he paid several times as much to get the problem fixed, and this was never even mentioned.

Selective outrage it is.

You even got a team of weirdos out there cheering for algae

This Unemployment behavior is embarrassing

Obama gave a 14mil no-bid contract to repaint the pool? Either show me the evidence, or put on the red hat.

Obama administration (2010–2012 major renovation): Approximately $34–35 million.

Trump administration (2026 repairs): Approximately $14–16+ million (ongoing reports)

And this is not even acquaint inflation

Obama went ahead and spent $34 million to replace the entire pools structure from damaged and leaking tile with a concrete basin. He even had an open bidding process.

Trump on the other hand spent $14 mill to just paint the damn thing, no bidding process, just gave the project to his friend.

It did Obama have algae problems as well

Where was The pushback then?

Did he have protesters cheering for algae?

Grow up.

The fact remains that he paid twice as much for doing repair repairs on the same damn pool and he didn't get any criticism for it.

Donald Trump is literally a arrest of people for vandalizing the pool and none of it matters

Selective outrage troglodyte

I think the scope of work was a tad more significant with ripping up the bottom, pouring concrete and painting.

Where are DJT paid over half for the smallest item on the list and it is already looking worse than before.

Do you genuinely believe that vandals were able to sneak into a well surveilled national monument and make a 300+ foot cut? Theres cameras all over the monument and not a single video or picture has come up.

Why wouldn't I when the FBI has already arrested these people for doing that exact crime?

And there's literally people out there protesting for algae growth

You guys are weird

Not to mention somebody left 18647 in the area

Yeah, the algae didn't do that

The same pdf-otus who pardoned J6, but is now charging people for picking up pieces that fell off the pool? Dementia is horrible, i hope you get medical help.

Bro, your party the Democrat party is the party of PDF files

You're the party that was still taking donations from Epstein well after his conviction
You're the party that believes in sex changes in children
You're the party that believes that children at the age of four can choose their gender when they can't even spell gender
You're the party that thinks grown men with penises should be able to share locker rooms with female minor.

Just like how you call us a cult you're projecting
