President Trump previously vowed to paint the Reflecting Pool an ‘American flag blue’

Blaming Obama for his failed 16+ million dollar attempt at entering the algae-based bio fuel industry.

How sad.

American families are struggling, the millennial generation may never get to participate in the American dream, and THIS is what their President feels needs his attention?

Not only that, but he fucked it up. He spent attention on it and made it worse than it was before. He's a talented fuckup

See also Iran, his cancelled "Freedom 250" concert, some bankrupt casinos, and pretty much everything else he ever did. And never forget Four Seasons Total Landscaping.

The Four Seasons Total Landscaping is my favourite fuck up of all time. The fact that they still held the press conference there and tried to pass it off as if it was planned is just hilarious! Best representation of the clown show going on over there. It's just a shame they're also fucking evil.
