Trump Self-Soothes With Fake Photo of Unfinished Pet ProjectHEAD IN THE CLOUDS
The easily distracted president sure has his priorities straight.

Trump daydreamed about his $13 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool while his administration was humiliated on multiple fronts on Monday.
Trump, 79, posted a doctored side-by-side photo of the Reflecting Pool on Truth Social around 3 p.m. on Monday, comparing two identical images of the site under “Hussein Obama” and himself.
The photo on Trump’s side depicts much bluer water than the one on Obama’s side, though the photos are otherwise identical. Both images feature the exact same cloud formations and people walking alongside the pool, meaning one photo is just a color swap of the other.
