🚨 President Trump just dropped this gem!

Trump saved America $298 MILLION on the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool:

The historic pool, where MLK gave his “I Have a Dream” speech, was a leaking, filthy disaster.

Government bureaucrats wanted $300 MILLION and 3+ years to rip it up.

Trump said hell no.

Called in real pool experts, scrubbed the original granite, sealed it, and topped it with American Flag Blue industrial coating.

✅ $1.5–2 MILLION
✅ Done in 2 weeks
✅ Will last 40–50 years and look better than 1922

This is how you run government like a business.

Promises kept! Taxpayer dollars saved!

Pres. Trump is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

Good for President Trump - and thanks for this and all the other wonderful things he’s doing for the country.

I can’t get away from the Sika company. They make very good products under absolutely horrible management.

I worked there for almost 20 years till I was given an offer I couldn’t refuse...Leave.

I got to be part of a reorganization. Gee, that was fun.

What I really liked was they made me sign a one-year non-compete in exchange for six months wages. The lawyer at my new employer managed to get that canceled.

Given such a wonderful opportunity, I had no choice but to move 600 miles and live apart from my family for eight months until we could sell our house during the 2009 depression. Wow, even more fun.

Yea, even though I love my current job and have some national notoriety because of it, I’m not angry.

I didn’t even get angry years later when I met my niece’s boyfriend and found out that he had my old job.

And he said he could do the Fed bldg. for $25 million instead of the $4 billion they will waste on it. But he did say a regular company could do it for $50 million. He quipped that the contractor has suddenly become one of the richest men in the country.

More democrat kickbacks missed LOL.

Trump may be the only president that questions spending he thinks about everything before making a move on it.

It’s the Central Park skating rink all over again.

Yep! NY City screwed around for SIX YEARS and couldn't get the skating rink open, Trump did it in 3 months {3 months ahead of his own schedule} and $750,000 under budget.

The Federal Reserve building renovation is going to cost us $3 billion thanks to incompetent J Powell. Trump said he could have done it for $25 million. The waste is criminal.
