Honestly, who gives a shit? I’m so much more worried about global and local changes he’s making. I couldn’t give less of a fuck about the colour of the dumbass whitehouse pool.
It’s an easy symbol to help people get out of the cult.
Is it important? No. Is it useful? Yes (if presented to the right people and not used as a circlejerk)
importantly, it’s a very simple and visual representation of the spectacular incompetence
(i was going to add undeniable but i’ve seen that the cult is trying to say that “the radical left” sabotaged it by introducing the algae
First, it doesn't belong to the White House or Trump. It's there for literal and metaphorical reflection on what it means to be America, with specific reference to Lincoln and Martin Luther King. Second, I'm sure a bunch of the public money from this project landed in Trump's pocket. Third, it's just another failure, in the one area he's supposed to have had experience in before running for President.

Trump probably gets the basic formula:
“Pay Mexican guy” => “pool look good”
But I bet he fucks around on the “pay” part.
Trump the pool boy
*lincoln memorial pool
Were it not for the money and the grift I'd be pretty unconcerned also; maintaining a pool to look at in the middle of a swamp is supremely stupid.
Ok. Well for people who care about patterns, him adding to the pattern of incompetence is worth mentioning.
