For some reason, he is selling this as eradicating "Biden filth and incompetence".

When will it be enough?

Trump suggests he and Burgum will ‘fix’ Lincoln Reflecting Pool

(The Hill) – President Trump said Wednesday he and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum will “fix” the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C.

The president posted a video of workers attending to the pool, with “Time to Say Goodbye” by Andrea Bocelli playing in the background, to his Truth Social Platform. Near the end of the video, the caption “Make D.C. Beautiful Again” pops up.

“This is the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool before Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum and I fix it,” Trump said. “Study it hard because you won’t be seeing this Biden filth and incompetence much longer!”

The pool, located east of the Lincoln Memorial on the National Mall, was completed in 1923. It is the largest reflecting pool in the nation’s capital.
