BREAKING: National Park Service Won’t Back Up Trump’s Reflecting Pool ‘Gash’ Claim

Trump told reporters he had proof of a 350 foot gash in the National Mall’s Reflecting Pool, and he said it with a straight face. He claimed vandals slashed the pool, that arrests were made, that “years in jail” were coming.

Then the National Park Service had a chance to back him up in federal court, and they wouldn’t do it. NPS deputy director Frank Lands filed a sworn declaration describing cut caulk, some peeling liner, and roughly 70 fence post tops tossed in the water. No gash. No 350 foot figure. The agency simply would not say the words.
