President Donald Trump, 80, fixated on negative coverage of his swollen 'cankles' during an explosive White House moment, as his staff whisper about his 'old' age, a new book reveals.
Internal White House documents about the issues at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool seem to undercut President Donald Trump's claims that the pool had been vandalized, according to a new report. Trump blamed alleged "vandals" for damaging the pool after crews recently completed a more than $16 million renovation. Video of the bottom layer of paint peeling off in the pool and of green algae taking over nearly the entire structure has circulated online for several days, and some political experts have said the pool itself has become a "symbol" of the Trump administration's incompetence. The New York Times reported on Tuesday that the Trump administration has been aware of the issues the pool faces for a while. Instead of admitting to the issues, the government has sought to blame alleged vandals instead, according to the report. "Government documents obtained by The New York Times show that while National Park Service workers found two cuts in sections of foam between the pool’s expansion joints, those were not directly related to the 'American flag blue' coating that is now peeling, or to the algae that has turned the pool a bright shade of green," the NYT reported. "Even as the documents show workers were attempting to address deteriorating conditions, Trump administration officials were insisting publicly that the pool was pristine," the outlet added. Trump has consistently claimed that someone took a knife or box cutter to the bottom of the pool to damage the paint. However, one document obtained by the NYT showed that workers reported damage to the bottom of the pool about a week before reports surfaced. "Work to fix the problems may not be finished until after July 4 — a setback for the president, who wanted the renovation to be completed before then," the Times added.
President Trump announced Tuesday that federal authorities have now made six arrests in connection with the vandalism and damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, revealing new details about a deliberate act of destruction targeting one of the nation's most iconic landmarks ahead of America's 250th anniversary celebration.

President Donald Trump's narrative about the issues the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool faces is under intense scrutiny, and political analysts were astounded by a new report that seemed to make the scrutiny much worse. The New York Times reported on Tuesday that internal White House documents show the Trump administration was well aware of the issues the Reflecting Pool is facing, from its peeling painted bottom to the algae covering its entire surface, even though Trump was publicly blaming "vandals" for the problems. "Government documents obtained by The New York Times show that while National Park Service workers found two cuts in sections of foam between the pool’s expansion joints, those were not directly related to the 'American flag blue' coating that is now peeling, or to the algae that has turned the pool a bright shade of green," the report reads in part. "Even as the documents show workers were attempting to address deteriorating conditions, Trump administration officials were insisting publicly that the pool was pristine," it added. Political analysts shared their reactions to the report on social media. "This is going to get more stupid every day for eternity," Jeff Timmer, a senior advisor to The Lincoln Project, posted on X."In other words, he used some time to concoct an enemy he could blame," author and retired journalist Lyle Muller posted on X. "So much winning ..." Brian Webber, guest host on "The Jim Rome Show," posted on X.
