Trump doubles down on reflecting pool vandalism allegations, cites new witness account
President Donald Trump renewed his criticism regarding the dismissed Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool vandalism case, citing a National Park Service employee who alleged David Hearn violently ripped and tugged at the pool’s coating. He claimed this witness account bolstered his argument that damage was deliberate and also mentioned other incidents, such as writing with an 'acid like material.' Trump urged U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro to revisit the case after prosecutors moved to dismiss charges.
