Trump-Team schüttet Bleichmittel in reflektierendes Becken, um Renovierungsfehler zu verbergen

doesn’t this water eventually circulate through and out to a natural watershed ?

Straight out of the idiocracy playbook

At least they aren’t drinking it anymore

They should also use some Ivermectin and shine some light in there…

That their solution for Hormuz too?

Morons. Everyone knows beef tallow is the answer.

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool had aging pipes, cracked concrete and filtration problems. Trump’s administration spent over $14 million but didn’t fix the infrastructure. Now it’s covered in algae.

That’s the most perfect metaphor for modern Republican governance I’ve seen all year. Paint the surface. Ignore the problem. Try to fix the fuckup and blame somebody else.

There are some many truly phenomenal metaphors for how incompetent this administration really is, it’s wild. 

It’s what plants crave

Omg, this is the Trump administration in a microcosm.

Trump insists he can get a deal on painting a pool because he knows fucking nothing. The project is over-budget by a factor of 13, and is done poorly while remedying no issues at all. He ends up with the same issue because no changes have been effectively made, and his idea is to just dump chemicals in it to try and kill it. He could consult with experts, but that would require him to admit that he fucked up. So instead, the reflecting pool is going to get slumlord fixes that create more problems for someone else while blaming Obama.

Absolutely fucking dumb party. Supposed adults being afraid of being on the wrong side of a child that was never hugged and now he’s literally everyone’s fucking problem.

Trump supporters love to use TDS as if being mad at an insane idiot is a deranged thing to be. Only the truly deranged ever supported an absolute fucking moron with the ability to fuck you over if his own self-interest is fulfilled. Fucking dummies.

Further proof, everything that he touches turns to shit

What a sad but perfect metaphor for the trump presidency.

1. Say the phrase, „drain the swamp“ only because it gets a good response at rallies

2. reject a Democrat plan to fix the pool

3. photoshop a picture of what the pool „looks like under Trump currently“

3. Accept a non-bid contract to fix the pool, „on the cheap“

4. Fail to drain the swamp

5. Fail to fix the literal swamp

6. Lie to people its fixed

7. attempt short term bandaid

8. Walk away claiming victory

Everything he touches turns to shit.

Hopefully some actual algicide as well. Chlorine will burn off quickly in the summer.

Anyone that knows anything about pools will tell you, painting a pool is always a mistake. Its going to turn into a nightmare.

That chlorine is going to burn off fast, I doubt the water is balanced and has cyanuric acid to stabilize the chlorine.

I don’t know how much chlorine it would take to get it to shock level but I don’t think they are adding enough. They are adding it wrong also, have to brush all surfaces to damage cell walls of algae then add chlorine by broadcasting around pool, not dumping it all in one spot.

Then you have to maintain that level until algae gone.

Then have to remove all dead algae.

Then have to keep chlorine levels at 3/5 ppm constantly and filter water.

And keep the PH about 7.5.

And keep the phosphate levels down.

They don’t stand a chance against the algae.

That (hydrogen peroxide) cannot be good for the ducks or any other birds that land and swim on the surface of the reflecting pool water! How could this possibly be allowed to happen by the Park Service: something that is dangerous and could kill wildlife?

Bleach is wonderful! I hear it cures COVID too!

Fellas, I don’t wanna alarm anyone, but I’m not sure these chaps have a clue what the fuck they’re doing.
