Another Trump Failure: Are You Surprised? I Am Not
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
I remember the “Million Man March.” Dr. King chose the
perfect setting to give his now famous, “I have a dream,” speech. With the
Lincoln Memorial behind him, and thousands of men and women in front of him,
lining the reflecting pool. The overall image was one of inspiration, hope, and
even grandeur.
Something is missing from this picture today. The reflecting
pool is no longer a soft blue, it is frog green and the paint from the bottom
of the pool appears to be peeling as scraps of paint are floating to the top.
TRUMP’S LIFELONG AFFLICTION WITH MALIGNANT NARCISSISM
STRIKES AGAIN
Trump’s ego is the only thing larger than his humongous
derriere. He decided to drain the mall’s reflecting pool and paint the bottom “flag
blue.” However, when the 14M “job” was complete, the water never turned blue.
Algae formed immediately and now it is an awful shade of green. As one tourist
described it: “it looks like vomit.”
What went wrong? Let’s go back to the beginning
ANOTHER TRUMP SUPPORTER AND ANOTHER DISASTER FOR AMERICA
Any work on a federal government project under the auspices
of the National Park Service requires a minimum of three bids by three separate
contractors. Once again Trump ignored the rules.
Trump did not follow the process of choosing a contractor
based on qualifications and price. Instead, he, alone, gave the contract to a “friend.”
“Federal contracting records show that firm’s ultimate owner is the J.J. Cafaro
Investment Trust, led by John J. Cafaro, a donor to Trump and a neighbor to
Mar-a-Lago, the president’s private club in Florida.”
Can you say, “corruption.”
The pool has become a disaster and a national shame. This is
what happens when a lifelong criminal is allowed to claim the title of
President of the United States. Trump is not even an American.
