Imagine being arrested and charged with a felony because a geriatric narcissist is too far gone to admit his cronies did a shit job:
One man arrested was David Hearn, 67, of Bethesda, Maryland, who owned a company that made composite used to build watercraft. He said he stopped by the pool during his 64-mile bike ride Friday to see what was going on.
Hearn, a former Olympic canoe racer, told The Associated Press that he reached into the pool because he wanted to examine the peeling new coating. He said he briefly touched a chunk that was still attached to the side of the pool, then let go shortly after a park worker told him to.
But, Hearn said, he was then detained by National Guard troops and Park Police for five hours before being released Friday night.
I first skimmed this comment and read Bethesda and then misread watercraft for Warcraft. I was confused about what that had to do with the topic.
This was suppose to be the one thing he didn't fail at. His real-estate business is the one that he didn't bankrupt. I would say now, it is definitive that its only still going because of fraud. He can't even maintain a pool...
What a completely worthless human....
No moving forward without executions.
It's 2026. We no longer substantiate anything - we just make whatever claims we want and attack whoever dares to call us out on it. That's how I got my PhD.
Typical narcissist. Blame everyone else for your own shortcomings and mistakes
It wasn't a mistake, it was a kickback scheme. You steer a contract toward a trusted buddy, who does a shit job using shit materials, and they split the profit, especially the overruns, which are 100% profit.
Now you have to intimidate anyone who is considering investigating it.
This sort of scheme has been his Bread & Butter for his entire [criminal] "career."
Right, but Trump can't even do the absolute simplest form of corruption right. The intersection of his incompetence and narcissism means he can't even paint a pool without making it into a fiasco. It's seems stupid but it just shows how his entire situation is unraveling. Good con men understand the value of subtlety, and do not tolerate incompetence. Trump is so fucking stupid that he can't even grift properly as the most powerful man in the world.
You just described his shortcomings and mistakes.
Trump? Facts?
Are you kidding me?
Ivermectine,will take care of it just like covid
Or just stick a UV bulb in there!
YOU FILLED IT WITH WATER AND THEN DUMPED PEROXIDE IN IT BEFORE IT HAD TIME TO CURE, YOU DOLT.
The absolute fucking irony of the claim that vandals "dumped corrosive chemicals into the pool" lmao the writers of this season are just phoning it in at this point.
Should we just start believing him?
He's got an honest face.
we will believe him when he stop using this to hide from the files.
Honestly punchable.
With a tire iron. I wouldn't want to get bronzer and blood on my fists.
I think that face would look more honest with some blood.
