While Americans Struggle, Trump Obsesses On Covering Up Lincoln Pool Failure
Last month, Chris Hayes perfectly summed up Trump’s effort to scapegoat an innocent American for his own $17 million, reflecting pool epic failure. Last week, Trump’s U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, had no choice but to drop felony charges against ex-Olympian David Hearn and admit the damage to the pool was done by Trump’s own, no-bid contractor.
Instead of moving on and addressing the real problems facing Americans, Trump can’t stop throwing temper tantrums over the wound to his tender fee-fees.
On Friday, Trump demanded Pirro “revisit” the dropped charges. In addition to sticking to his original lie that accused former Olympian David Hearn vandalized the pool, Trump’s psychotic rage suggested Hearn’s supposedly liberal politics is “evidence” of his guilt:
