President Donald Trump is playing the blame game yet again for the ongoing issues with his exorbitant renovations to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool — this time for its algae outbreak.
“They put in algae! Who the hell put in algae?” Trump asked while delivering remarks in Medora, North Dakota, on Wednesday.
The president went on to accuse former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden of not fixing the pool despite spending millions of dollars “trying” to do so.
Trump, who potentially has spent more than $1 billion on a slew of Washington, DC renovations, alleged he only spent “a very small amount of money” on the Reflecting Pool in comparison.
“What they don’t say is Barack Hussein Obama ― Have you heard of him? ― Barack Hussein Obama spent tens of millions of dollars trying to fix it, and it was a disaster,” he continued. “Sleepy Joe Biden spent millions of dollars trying to fix it, and he was unable to do it.”
