I think that color is officially called “Epstein Blue”.

He wants to make everything look like a golf course. In this case, a *miniature* golf course.

looks real bad. cheap. ignorant. looks like what it is.

He is obsessed with toilets and them flushing.

I don’t know why they couldn’t have used that toilet tank additive that is a blue powder. probably would have been cheaper

Makes sense. Steal a few classified toilets, hide them by the toilet. Has his name plastered through out the Epstein files more often then Harry’s name is in Harry Potter, needs a bigger toilet to hide the files.

Donald Trump…turning the country ‘Blue’ — one city at a time.
Kinda makes sense that he’s making it look like a kiddie pool

Someone should tell them that it makes it look like the pool supports Democrats

Give it time. Without cleaning it will return to its past state.

I’m surprised he didn’t have his name or likeness painted.

Blue cesspool!

I’m surprised he didn’t have it gold plated instead…

This will look terrible in real life. The paint job is completely uneven and AI is giving these people an opportunity to polish pure dog shit and spread it as propaganda.

This will NEVER stay blue. If it does, it will cost America a shit ton more every year.
It was designed to be green because they didn’t have chlorine back then. Keeping it pristine blue and not algae green will take a shit ton of chlorine to keep it blue.
The reflecting pool is less than knee deep but is 6.7 million gallons of water. For daily maintenance, a common rule is 1/2 gallon of liquid chlorine (10%–12.5% concentration) per 5,000 to 10,000 gallons of pool water to combat daily loss. That’s 300 gallons of chlorine needed daily if it was a deep pool. But it’s shallow depth will probably make it an order of magnitude higher amount or more due to sun penetrating deeper and evaporation.
You need about one three inch tablet per 5,000 gallons for a pool. So that puts you at 1,350 a week for a deep pool or around 4,000 – 10,000 tablets a week for that size.
Then you have maintenance. Green pool you scrape some algae a few times a month but without leaf debris there isn’t much bioload so a skimmer keeps clumps out. But now? You have to freaking scrub the whole damn thing….constantly. This will create a constant clean team forever just to keep the green from returning. Then another team to scrape the white crust build up the chlorine will leave behind constantly.
Within a few years it will be back to being green. Total waste of money.

Guaranteed when we take this country back from the morons. We will find out this whole pool is toxic and irrepreble damage has been done to the monument.

And this is AI because apparently mar a lago blue doesn’t reflect. So it is no longer a reflecting pool.

He doesn’t give a shit how it looks, just another way to grift off the American taxpayer into his own pocket.
*edit: a word.

At least he didn’t make the walls and edges painted gold.
You know he probably asked tho

Sure, it may look terrible, and it may have been completely unnecessary, and it may have gone WAY over budget, but…. Wait, where was I going with this?

It won’t even look as “good” as this picture. The paint job is so patchy already. It’s going to look like an ill-maintained pool at a seedy hotel on the side of a highway nobody uses anymore because the interstate bypassed it 80 years ago.

Reflecting ponds are not blue
