Former President Joe Biden<\/strong><\/a> criticized Donald Trump<\/strong><\/a> on the back of failed attempts to restore the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat a loser,\u201d Biden, 83, told the crowd at the Maryland Democratic Party\u2019s inaugural Back & Win Summit and Gala on Saturday, June 27. \u201cIt\u2019s not just his vanity projects. Tearing down the East Wing of the White House. Making room for his ballroom. Putting his name on the Kennedy Center. Building an arch in his own honor. Even hiring his own pool guy to fix the Reflecting Pool.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biden\u2019s audience erupted in applause over his summation, per social media footage shared by CBS News<\/em><\/a> that captured the moment.<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cLook, folks, it\u2019s not just that. The Reflecting Pool reflects something even worse than the narcissism and incompetence at the core of this administration. It\u2019s the corruption.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe Cultural Landscape Foundation and the nonprofit\u2019s founder, Charles A.

President Trump, 80, recently addressed<\/a> the deterioration of the Reflecting Pool that occurred after ordering an estimated $15 million renovation of the famed body of water between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve cleaned, renovated, and beautified over 45 Monuments and Memorials, 28 Statues, and 22 Fountains in Washington, D.C.,\u201d the president wrote via his social media platform Truth Social on June 19. \u201cHowever, we\u2019ve had some real problems with vandalism at the beautiful Reflecting Pool. Just like three days ago, they destroyed the grass outside of the Pool, they\u2019ve also done everything possible to hurt the inside surface that was just installed.\u201d<\/p>\n

The renovation had originally been ordered to improve the pool\u2019s appearance, turning it \u201cAmerican flag blue\u201d in time for the country\u2019s 250th birthday celebration. According to The New York Times<\/em><\/a>, the pool appeared to have been \u201crejecting\u201d the renovation, with the outlet claiming that the bottom of the pool was peeling amid \u201cchunks of coating.\u201d<\/p>\n
