This happened on the National Mall in front of the reflecting pool. He spoke about his "success" renovating the reflecting pool, including a bunch about the pipes. Utterly disconnected from reality. A true "emperor has no clothes" moment.

The speech was awful.

How is it not news that he's "giving serious thought to renaming it the Trump reflecting pool"?

Cause we all got bigger fish to fry than the ramblings of a demented old rapist.

[-] artyom@piefed.social -2 points 5 days ago

Do we really, though?

[-] Karjalan@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Because he says/attempts to rename everything after himself, so it's not really news.

And he media gives him so much free air time, most of the time it only helps him.

I thought that was an AI meme, jeez you cant tell anymore whats real whats fake whats just fucking idiotic

He's "kept more promises than he's even made", you guys. All of them and then some.

~~Wait, I thought that image was a complete meme, not that he actually greenscreened the reflecting pool for the broadcast!~~

Edit: I'm a bit of an idiot, it's not a gray wall, just the water reflection. It looks a bit miserable, someone really should paint it blue or something

I think that's just the grey sky reflection you see on the photo. Looks weird due to the tele lens.

The video shows him walking around and driving around the pool in his limo

Oh, yeah, you're absolutely right. That makes way more sense. I thought he might have been so paranoid he shot in some parking lot ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 days ago

Honestly, it looked like a parking lot or airport tarmac to me as well. Still a bit weird how uniform grey the reflection appears to be
