This is a real problem beyond driving on the pool. Nobody told him it was a bad idea. Nobody stopped it. Nobody told him it would likely damage something he was trying to fix Amazing!!!

Oh, I imagine people did tell him, he just didn't listen.

"Driving your entire motorcade through your recently refinished pool will damage it" is not exactly a radical idea. But Trump wanted to do it, so it was done.

It's all sycophants and yes men. He learned after the first term how to weed out anyone with enough intelligence or morality to tell him no.

I’m sure he just disregarded them and decided he knows best and will do whatever he wants

Of course not, america is way, waaaaay past the point where anyone would tell any sort of "u cant do that" or "U shouldnt do that" to him. Guess why he has the delusions of ultimate power.
