    1. >CNN’s Kaitlan Collins has exposed a devastating flaw in President Donald Trump’s claims on his Reflecting Pool fiasco.

      >The star host called BS on Trump’s claim that the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool turned green with algae because “vandals” cut up its new, expensive, “American flag blue” lining.

      >Collins began by playing a clip of the president saying on Tuesday that somebody “went in with a knife and cut it.”

      >“They cut it up good,” Trump said. “And then they cut it 200, 350-foot slips in the form of lots of little slips, a real horrible stuff.”

      >Collins pointed out that Trump has provided no pictures or video to back up his claim. She then reminded the president that he said in May that it would be impossible to cut the lining—chips of which are visible inside the pool—with a knife.

      >“This will last for at least 50 years,” Trump said on May 4. “You’ll never have a leak. It’s very strong. You couldn’t, if you had a knife—I don’t want to give anybody ideas—if you had a knife, you can’t even cut it. So strong, so powerful, it’s like powerful rubber. It is beautiful. Sealed.”

      >Now, the 80-year-old Trump is desperately trying to spin his Reflecting Pool mess as the result of Democrats trying to sabotage him. Collins noted in her segment that Trump is posting about the Reflecting Pool as much as he is about Iran this week.

    2. Its an article about the news reporter reporting the news. How Meta. I should write an article on the Daily Beasts’ article regardings Kaitlin Collin’s reporting on the news

      The guy has been eating his own words since the 80’s, the fact that such a baffoon made it to president tells a great deal about the minds in the country.

      Nothing humiliates Trump we need to stop with these stupid headlines. He’s a soulless , corrupt narcissist, unable to feel humiliation through the lens of his own ego.

      Duhhhhh dude shouldn’t even have DL let alone the nuclear codes or presidency. All he’s doing is defacing America and some would call that treason.

      Daily Beast needs to remove the word ‘humiliated’, and all versions , from their vocabulary. It’s such ridiculous clickbait for paywalled articles.

    7. So, he put the 30 foot crack in the pool because he had his motorcade….including the beast, which is as heavy as a tank, drive on it just for Trump’s funsies. while it was drained….the proceeded to paint over this crack it in a dark color that absorbs heat and sets up the perfect conditions for an algae bloom….so now nature is taking it’s course….but to counter the natural occurrence he had them pour in as many gallons of hydrogen peroxide as they could find at the local walmart…. which acts as a paint thinner that broke down said paint job….Now he has surrounded the pool with fencing making a central point of the 250th celebration look like a prison yard… to catch the people he made up in his head that have done acts that he made up in his head because he couldn’t possibly have made bad decisions….so he is having innocent people arrested and ruining their lives because he needs someone to point to and blame that is not him? That about sums up the American condition.

      Media points out to naked emperor, that it appears in fact he is not wearing clothes. ‘yes I am, very fine clothes, the best clothes’ he retorts.

      Then they write up an article showing that indeed, the naked emperor appears to be lying. Bet he won’t ever lie again out of embarrassment.

      I can’t wait till he’s a lame duck and everyday is a humiliation ritual like this.

      Not just the words backfiring on him directly by saying it couldn’t be damaged with a knife but it also insinuates that the people Trump hired could have damaged the pool in a way that would make it vulnerable to a knife. “Pulling a Trump” needs to be a new idiom.

    11. You can’t humiliate Trump. He feels no shame, remorse, empathy, or self reflection

    12. The pools rubber coating was destroyed by several things and they were all caused by Donald Trump. First, you had Donald’s motorcade driving over the entire liner less than a day after it was applied. Second, you had them refilling the pool the next day with water instead of the recommended 5-7 day cure period. Third, you had Donald sending in people to scrape the algae off of the pools surface. He also said the liner was so tough and strong you could not cut it and it would last 50 to 100 years! Heck it didn’t even last a month and the manufacturer says its lifespan is 5 to 8 years when applied correctly!

    13. Trump is not humiliated. There will be no consequences for this. What are we doing?

      I was surprised that there wasn’t more outrage on all of the chemicals being put into the reflecting pool because of the effects it would have on surrounding animals that weighed in it and drink it. Poor ducks…

      It’s entertaining seeing the Left melt down over the reflecting pool. The rest of America doesn’t give two shits!
