Trump says he will repair National Mall reflecting pool after July 4

President Trump announced plans to fix the National Mall's reflecting pool, which has been marred by algae growth and peeling paint just weeks after a lavish $14 million renovation. This move highlights the ongoing maintenance challenges despite significant investment. The pool's deterioration underscores broader issues in public infrastructure upkeep, raising questions about the long-term sustainability of such costly renovations. Trump's commitment to addressing these problems post-July 4 signals a potential focus on public spaces' upkeep in his administration.
