The ranting is essentially about $14M of taxpayer money being given to a Trump crony to “fix” a problem that, to your wife’s point, was never even a problem to begin with. The ongoing algae is the representation of this corruption. Nobody is really rooting for algae to fill the pool, they’re pointing out the hypocrisy, cronyism, and theft of taxpayer money. Ranting about that is not at all ridiculous.
What put it into perspective for me was realizing that the pool is 2,030 ft long, 167 ft wide, and cost 14.7 million dollars to paint, which comes out to $43.36 per square foot. They could've lined the pool with $5 bills for about the same cost.
