There is no 250 or 350 foot cut in the Reflection pool liner as has been claimed by Trump and others.

1. Did anybody but the MAGA cult ever think there was?

Even Trump would have known that was bullshit; he just tries to wish things into existence by proclaiming them to be true and expecting everyone to believe him.

15. ...which is also the Prosperity Gospel in a nutshell.

Say it’s true like you believe it, and maybe it’ll happen. In Trump’s case, it’s get enough people to believe it, and maybe they’ll make it happen.

[Bettie]

2. Well, I for one am shocked! Shocked I tell you!

Given this administration's reputation for truthfulness...oh, wait, not shocked at all.

Lying is the only thing they do.

3. Defund the Presidency.

4. Best idea I've heard in a long time.

That’s where all the fraud, waste and abuse of government money is coming from.

[purr-rat beauty]

5. Then the President should be Impeached

To use his power as a PARTISAN attack when it is based off a lie should be highly disqualifying.

That is an absolute abuse of power

People have been harassed and charged over this lie.

AND this is minor compared to people dying because of his political, racial, and sexist political cruelty

7. Some pretty knowledgable DUers have posted their analyses of the huge fuck-up that was the "cleanup" ....

Good tradesmen understand their tools and materials, and know how to pick the right one for the job. Trmp's crony only knew how to accept the job as soon as the no-bid contract was offered, and fuck it up royally by using the wrong material entirely for the job. He used a material that was specialized for a very different purpose, with very different properties designed in for that purpose.

8. You mean Dump lied?!

*pretends to be shocked*

9. Has Trump issued a retraction?

Don't everyone laugh at once.

11. You could tell from the photos that the pieces had jagged edges

and were not cut with a freaking box cutter as ***** alleged.

[karynnj]

12. How do we know it was not cut and a miracle fixed it?

Though I would imagine a miracle would include also eliminating all the algae and being crystal clear.

Sarcasm obviously

14. He turned THAT water into whine,for sure

[Pinback]

16. DUzy!

[BattleRow]

20. TY!

[Ray Bruns]

13. Really?

[Botany]

17. That pool never has had a big problem with algae and until Trump fucked with it.

It was his fault not some made up crap about vandals who sliced the stupid new blue liner. They changed the albedo of the pool, fucked with the expansion joints, turned off the micro bubblers, and had never done that type of work before. Where were the hydro geologists? The water ecologists? The engineers? The the men and women who had done that kind of work before?

[republianmushroom]

18. Damn, does this mean trump and his crew LIED to us ?

19. Epstein is in the Trump files

21. Nobody with a functioning brain ever believed that one

because we all know Fatso pulled it out of his ass like he always does.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

22. Some more vandals raced in and covered the slit with Flex-Seal

Kash promises to get to the bottom of the pool issue.

23. The maladministration would be embarrassed to admit

that *rump's personal contractor forgot to install the pool slides and diving boards as originally specified in *rump's renovation plan. So tear it all out and do it again -- correctly this time, or they won't get paid twice. And pay attention to the addition of a third floating bar and 10 more "executive cabanas."
