President Trump has blamed the appearance of swathes of dead grass at the National Mall on “vandals.”
On Truth Social, Trump shared an aerial image of the grass at the National Mall which appeared to have large, dead patches in the same area that he held his July 4 celebration.
“Look what VANDALS did to the grass connecting the vandalized World War II Monument and the vandalized Reflecting Pool, which will be opened again, and better than ever, shortly,” Trump wrote on Sunday night. “Anybody who thinks the Reflecting Pool wasn’t vandalized should go back to Law School!”
Trump knows it wasn't vandals, his supporters know it wasn't vandals, and his supporters know that Trump knows it wasn't vandals. This is just a wink and a smile to communicate "look how pissed the liberals are getting."
And in all the back and forth, his supporters won't feel the need to care about all the taxpayer dollars the president is using to deface American symbols.
