The next Democratic president (hopefully there will be elections) should tear it and the ballroom down. Also the presidential wall of fame.

True to his nature, he'll try to forcibly impose himself in the most bombastic manner.

The fascist pig has been fighting with the ballroom architect about making the ballroom bigger. It is going to turn into a hotel Convention Center with money going to the Trump family.

Do you really think the fascist pig has raised money for the ballroom?

What does President Biden have to do with the Reflecting Pool? 🤔

the obvious answer is "nothing." President Obama and VP Biden were focused upon important issues. It is the felon who is preoccupied with having his name associated with the physical features one sees in DC.

Jfc

who is deep in the throes of dementia, an affliction that often comes with hallucinations. Anyone who has the ability to remove this addled motherfucker from office, and is not doing so, needs to be brought up on charges. I don't give a shit whether they're charge with sedition, elder abuse, or whatfuckingever. The whole goddamn lot of them are aiding and abetting this bullshit, and they all need to rot in prison for the rest of their miserable fucking lives.

absolutely nothing. In the felon's evil self love imagination, everything. He simply labels anyone to justify his insecure and hateful actions. Monuments to himself will be taken down as soon as he's gone, along with all record of his rule by executive orders.

“…monuments to himself will be taken down as soon as he’s gone…”.

We ALL need that to happen. All monuments to himself.

Too bad we’re still gonna be stuck with him in the history books, though.

But it's convenient for some reason, he's to be the personal supervisor of the work crew or office or coding team.

Just before Thanksgiving they drained the reflecting pool to clean out fallen/rotting leaves, a large-scale algae outbreak, a lot of goose crap and the large growth of algae that all that conveniently converts sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, nitrogen and phosphorus into ever more algae.

Problem's been a while in the making. So it's Biden's fault.

If not on a sooner schedule (maybe every other year)
The pool was probably closed and cleaned during the Orange one's first Administration.

…intended to evoke Versailles, but more reminiscent of the Bellagio Hotel in Vegas.

Maybe with the addition of golden statues of nymphs with yuge racks?

The more stuff he builds with his name on it, the more stuff we can have fun bulldozing.

kickbacks from contractors and general grift.

I foresee somehow redoing the pool with 4"x4" gold tiles with a raised "T" (for Trump or Turd or Tinypenis or Terriblechildrapist or whatever) that anyone can purchase and personalize for $100. Bigger tiles available for $1,000. He'll pocket the cash and the tiles will be less than contractor grade, painted gold-ish and available 2 weeks from never.

headquartered in Washington D.C.that manages the majority of the city's parkland, which includes nearly 90% of its public parks, memorials, and historic sites.

This time, if he fails to get his monument's building approval he'll have multiple lawsuits on his hands.

But in the one we live in, the ruling bodies that were supposed to protect the East Wing were powerless.

I doubt that an agency actually controlled by the executive branch is going to do any better.

The project planning will be kept quiet until we wake up one morning and the news is talking about how the pools are being drained and cement trucks are pulling up. They’ll say “It’s not new construction, just repairs” as the reason paperwork wasn’t filed or public comments allowed.

I agree that a branch as part of the Executive can't do much, but if his destruction was a secret, they can't be held as intentionally powerless. They were LIED TO. CONTINUALLY.

As with everything else he does, in secret or covered up, he's lawless. The NPS could have moved to file a PRO, but it was too late. Everyone in the country was taken by surprise by the felon.

Racism and venality are all these people stand for.

He has destroyed our White House, our democracy, our economy, our standing with allies, our Department of Education, our Health Department - I could go on and on, but you know the list of offenses. He gets away with every damn thing.

Seriously, what the hell?

The American people have three flaws:
1) Incuriosity
2) Apathy
3 I don’t know the third and I don’t feel like looking it up.

to meet unfettered evil with equal resolve?

Wish I could rec that post *many* more times.

WTF is wrong with Congress? Why do they let him get away with this? Getting rid of the reflecting pool is literally flushing history down the drain.

they are complicit.

He wasn't there again today
Could someone drop him in the bay?

Destroy everything from the greatest presidents ... FDR's east wing, Lincoln ... what's left, the Founding Fathers? Washington? Jefferson? Adams?

and dare him to do it.

must be razed and brought back to its original state. A lien on all of his assets must be used to pay for his defacing public property. His vandalism should bankrupt his family.
Every day the Romanov solution makes more sense.

It’s been there longer than just about any of us, including Joe….

rewriting America's history.

Because he knows that America's history is intertwined with the history of those he wants to demonize, denounce, and ERASE.

Because our history gives testimony to that which he (and those of his ilk) want to DENY.

Just as these edifices and monuments give testimony to that which he'll NEVER measure up to, and to those FAR NOBLER, whom he despises.

The very sight of them, a constant reminder of his UNWORTHINESS to even WALK among them.

So, like America itself, he wants to destroy it ALL, and remake it in his own image.

Newsflash: If these things, their history, what they stand for, mean nothing to you, if our institutions, our diversity, our democracy, our Constitution mean nothing to you, then you can't POSSIBLY 'love America,' mf.

Messing with The Reflecting Pool would also infuriate me.

Why in particular? Well, I've been by it during a few demonstrations.

But more importantly I've been by it during plain fun vacations. On a glorious blue sky, low humidity Summer's day walking towards, and visiting The Lincoln Memorial. Reflecting colors of sunset, and seeing a pair of black swans with vivid red beaks! Finally, the lit George Washington Monument reflected in the pool while visiting The L M at midnight!

Gloriously peaceful, and beautiful experiences. A simple, yet special place. Don't mess with the visuals, bastard!

And absolutely no one will try to stop him.
