Trump trolls Jeanine Pirro with odd posts of ‘vandalism’ after belittling her over Reflecting Pool case
AOL.com • • entertainment
Key Points:
- President Donald Trump insists vandals caused damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool renovations, despite his administration acknowledging insufficient evidence and dropping related criminal charges against David Hearn.
- Trump has publicly criticized U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro for dropping charges, accusing her of folding under pressure and urging her to reconsider the decision.
- Pirro’s office concluded the damage resulted from a botched installation by contractors, not criminal acts, citing incomplete information from the Interior Department and early peeling of the pool's blue sealant.
- The renovation project, rushed to meet a July 4 deadline with a $14.7 million no-bid contract, faced issues including weather delays, poor workmanship, and rapid deterioration shortly after completion.
- Trump alleges vandalism involved cutting the pool lining with a knife and contaminating the water, sharing photos and witness claims, though no conclusive video evidence has been publicly confirmed.
