CNN anchor Kasie Hunt provided an update on Trump’s lavishly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which has been coated with a green layer of algae since last week. Hunt echoed a description of the pool as “swampy.”<\/p>\n

David Axelrod, a Democratic political strategist and former Obama White House official, said, “The metaphor leaps out at you.”<\/p>\n

Conservative commentator Jonah Goldberg agreed, explaining the imagery of the slimy Reflecting Pool fits Trump’s failed campaign promise to “drain the swamp,” but instead he’s caught up in “the ballroom, this thing, the UFC fight.”<\/p>\n

Hunt laid out the metaphor more, saying, “The president spent a lot of<\/span> money on this, saying<\/span> it was going to look a certain<\/span> way. Now, obviously it doesn’t.”<\/span><\/p>\n

She added that instead of draining the swamp, the high-priced Reflecting Pool renovations and the White House ballroom reveal “a president that is focused on his own legacy in many ways, when Americans are struggling.”<\/span><\/p>\n
