Trump wants to remove ‘Biden filth’ in next DC renovation
Trump’s $300m White House ballroom project sparks controversy after East Wing demolition
Donald Trump has announced plans to “fix” the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, attributing its current state to “Biden filth and incompetence.”
He posted a video on social media showing leaves and grime in the pool, set to operatic music, and captioned it “Make D.C. Beautiful Again.”
Trump stated he intends to collaborate with Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum on this project.
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is a significant historic landmark in Washington D.C., known for hosting events such as Martin Luther King Jr.'s “I Have a Dream” speech.
This proposal follows other controversial plans by Trump, including the demolition of the White House East Wing for a ballroom and suggestions for an Arc de Triomphe-style arch.
