Donald Trump on Sunday said vandals are to blame for large swaths of dead grass on the National Mall near the World War II Memorial — in the same spot where Trump had a stage built and hosted crowds for his July 4 celebration.

Trump made the accusation in a social media post without saying why he believes it’s the work of vandals instead of trampled turf from the Independence Day festivities. He posted a photo showing a once-grassy area by the World War II Memorial, now patchy and brown across much of the sprawling turf.

“Look what VANDALS did to the grass connecting the vandalized World War II Monument and the vandalized Reflecting Pool, which will be opened again, and better than ever, shortly,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform.

    I imagine he also makes similar accusations when he shits his pants. “How did this shit appear on my underwear and pants? Clearly the work of Antifa!” ☝️🍊

    Seems like we have had a increase of “vandals” ever since this guy took office again. Maybe its the guy in charges fault?

    Vandal-In-Chief praises the efforts of his vassal vandals:

    “Look what VANDALS did to the grass connecting the vandalized World War II Monument and the vandalized Reflecting Pool, which will be opened again, and better than ever, shortly”

    He’s not complaining, he’s crowing.

    His meaning of “better than ever” is different from that of any sane person

      For some reason I’m reminded of that crazy lady that was the GF of Junior screaming to an empty room about how the “best is yet to COME!!!”

      Whatever happened to that crazy lady, anyway? 🤔

      Oh right, she was used up and cast aside like a used Kleenex…

    I think he’s trolling the American public. He knows darn well that it was vandalized - by him. And he knows that no one is going to do a damn thing about it.

      Not so much trolling as he is distracting from his constant crimes.

    How did these vandals get past our Brave National Guard armed with Automatic Weapons and Keen Eyesight? Thank you for your attention to this matter.
