President Obama spent 100 million dollars and destroyed it further, and then Biden got involved and spent a lot of money and destroyed it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with his 5\u203211\u2033 in-law as they looked out a White House window, Trump continues to ramble about the \u201cpond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m gonna spend a tiny fraction of that money and it should open in about a week, it was gonna take them four years to get it built and it\u2019s going to take me about four weeks.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>He finally pauses. <\/p>\n<p>After spending much of the segment nodding along, Lara Trump chimed in to say that D.C. residents were clamoring for the president to fix the pool, which she described as plagued with algal blooms and garbage. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was disgusting,\u201d Trump agrees, before including a random tidbit he likes to tout about the pool. \u201cIf you lay it on its side it\u2019s taller than any building in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the Skyscraper Center, there are actually three buildings taller in Dubai, Malaysia and Singapore. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=408\">MAGA Fan Fumes Over Embarrassing Trump Merch Blunder<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Trump then returned to a familiar talking point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was going to cost 400 million and take four years,\u201d Trump continues, pushing his favorite line about his renovations to the pool. <\/p>\n<p>In reality, most of what the president says about the pool is incorrect or overblown. <\/p>\n<p>The Obama administration spent over $34 million on renovations to the pool during its first term. A new filtration system was installed, the pool was made shallower, and work was done to shore it up as it had begun to sink. <\/p>\n<p>The Biden administration did not undertake or commit to any major renovations or work on the pool, which was cleaned annually to remove algae. <\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s administration was quoted $300 million and three years to replace leaking granite and refresh the pool, and the president rejected that plan in favor of his own. <\/p>\n<p>The president awarded a no-bid contract to his preferred pool guys, claiming the Reflecting Pool was in such a state of disrepair that there wasn\u2019t time to go through a proper tendering process. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p>He initially claimed the revamp, which includes painting the pool \u201cAmerican Flag Blue,\u201d would take two weeks and cost $2 million. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Nearly four weeks later, the pool is still closed. The original $6.9 million has ballooned to more than $13 million after failed leak tests.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=406\">Why the Scripps National Spelling Bee Is Always Perfect TV<\/a><\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Donald Trump has bungled the name of one of his renovation obsessions, just days after his doctor declared the president had aced his most recent cognitive test.
