President Pool Boy
President Trump, in the Oval Office on Wednesday, bragged about the size of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool by comparing it to famous skyscrapers.
“One thing we know for sure is that Trump is definitely obsessed with size, whether it’s sex or construction,” Seth Meyers said on Thursday.
President Trump propped up the poster to show off the size of the pool, “which is not something he built or has any control over,” Meyers noted, adding that Trump has been renovating it to change its color.
“That’s it. Nothing he did affected the footprint of the pool. But on Wednesday, he showed off a chart he had made that compared the size of the pool to various skyscrapers, for some reason.” — SETH MEYERS
“You know what? You’ve got to hand it to him. I mean, that is really impressive — or it would be if the reflecting pool was [expletive] vertical! You’re not allowed to compare horizontal to vertical. If that was the case, I-90 crushes the reflecting pool.” — SETH MEYERS
“He’s building an arch, he’s covering statues in gold, he’s adding a s’mores station to Kennedy’s eternal flame. But his biggest project has been renovating the reflecting pool by the Lincoln Memorial. Because, as you know, one of the powers granted to the president in the Constitution is pool boy.” — MICHAEL KOSTA
