Crews were seen Tuesday dumping hydrogen peroxide in a hasty attempt to kill the algae’s quick re-growth. There’s one problem with that: Hydrogen peroxide is also a paint remover. So, in trying to (ineffectively) kill the algae, Trump also ruined his pricey paint job. trib.al/bcBVuE7

(Note the date of this thread)HAHAHAhaha! they're making the world's biggest synthetic scum pond!!! The coating is a polyurea used inside pipes. It gels in about 3 seconds, making it non self-leveling. The texture is like an orange peel, the perfect substrate for biofilms. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/19/u...

Others are intentionally paring their pools back to minimal basics. 🔗 https://t.co/9hEpcU0AQ1 pic.twitter.com/zQLOeY5hCs
