So…
A) Those are not the tallest buildings in the world. Only One World Trade Center is even in the top 10 (7th, specifically).
B) The Empire State Building is not 1464 ft, but 1250 ft. And it’s not taller than Willis (Sears) Tower which is 1450ft.
C) There are 3 buildings in the world taller than the reflection pool is long.
D) It’s a stupid thing to boast on the length of a pool, period, let alone one you didn’t build, let alone by comparing it to the heights of skyscrapers. You can dig a pool as arbitrarily long as you wish with little to no extra trouble with making it longer besides maintenance logistics. Skyscrapers of such height are engineering marvels.
E) You illegally paid another grifter buddy to half-ass the job that shouldn’t have been done in the first place for an absurd amount of tax dollars, got rightfully criticised about the entire thing, and it almost immediately fell apart before our eyes the moment you called it a success. And now you are arresting people for defacement for even touching your patch hack job.

Trump also had his motorcade drive all over the curing paint. It was on national news.

Usually I accept and move on.
But this seemed beyond stupid, so I searched.
When will I learn??

So he’s right, it really was vandalism, but by himself.
