It would be hilarious if it wasn’t wasting 14.2 million dollars on a no bid contract that we all knew was going to fail since it was, just like everything Trump, surface level.

Honest question: Why were there no algae in there before the renovation? I have tried to figure this out and can’t find anything on it. If they really “just” painted everything blue, why would there be suddenly a growth of algae?
There is algae from time to time. Obama had to update the filtration system (yes he did the work all by himself while wearing a tan suit) because of algae.
Trump copies everything Obama does but is purely incompetent.
But FOX News told me that no other president would ever remove the algae… Are you saying they lied to me, sir?
I seriously thought that segment was satire. The host saying “it’s American Flag Blue” while pointing at an Undrained Swamp Green reflecting pool is like something out of SNL
Segment starts at 60 seconds, if the link doesn’t work
Algae has been a problem for that pool, which all pools suffer from not just this shallow oversized one. Previous administrations has looked into this and their contractors/experts told them that there are fundamental issues with the pool that includes foundational issues such as cracked piping under the pool and filters that ain’t filtering right.
HOWEVER, This idiot decided that he would give a no-bid 14.2 million dollar contract to a contractor that doesn’t even do pools, just industrial waterproofing, and then had them just seal some cracks and put on a coat of dark blue paint. And you have to realize that dark colors absorbs more light and that heats up the pool water even more and you what loves heat? Algae. Now with the use of tidal water with the bad filters and pipes that are still leaking and pulling in nutrients/junk with a even warmer pool, well that how you get lots of algae.
Maybe this is just Trump trying to get into the algae-based bio fuel industry in a 4d chess move but maybe he’s just a moron.
What I heard™ was that the new color paint is darker so it causes the water to warm slightly creating more favorable conditions for an algae that was already a bit a bit of a problem, turning it into a bear of a problem.
That’s what I heard.
That is hilarious. And they blame the radical leftist liberals omfg I can’t even
There was algae before, but not near as bad from what I understand. IIRC they last did repairs and maintenance on the reflecting pool under Obama. Which may or may not have been part of the reason Trump wanted to redo them.
That’s what the orange kid-diddlers does, takes what Obama did (with varying degrees of success), tears it down, siphons millions for himself and his cronies, then gives us a shittier version of it.
Much like Iran
There was alge before. He tried to fix it, but failed.
my speculation is that it used to be maintained correctly with shock and filtering
