If you assume he’s just lying again, you’re 100% spot-on.

This was not trash removed from the reflecting pool. This picture was posted by Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum. It's construction waste after replacing seals.

After ripping out industrial-scale dumpsters worth of decaying and failing expansion joints, the Trump administration is now installing industrial-grade, leak-proof materials for the expansion joints. Anyone familiar with large-scale construction projects would understand materials are tested to ensure they perform effectively before being deployed at scale.

Nevertheless, Burgum's still trying to pretend that aging materials are "disastrous errors" which are Obama's fault, and "failed at the cost of millions for the American taxpayer," suggesting that piggy's preposterously expensive construction destruction projects, by contrast, are being done for the benefit of the nation.

Lickspittle, please. That's so much bullshit you better check for screwworms.

...those are expansion joints that belonged in the pool and damn well better have been replaced.

piggy remains the worst idiot to ever occupy the White House.

… to avoid being sentenced to a juvenile correctional facility.

And he only became President both times because of massive cheating and being part of the
largest multi generational criminal and international syndicate in history.

I’m surprised they didn’t go way back and blame Clinton. After all, Bill was too busy getting his cock sucked by Monica.
