President Donald Trump said that the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on the National Mall is "in full use" after an algae bloom in the pool and portions of the blue paint applied during renovations he commissioned began peeling off earlier this month.
Trump's June 28 social media post came after a tour of Washington, DC, landmarks during which he declared that many of the monuments were "completely renovated and restored" and announced plans for a renovation of a golf course facility in the district.
