Why is the National Park Service responsible for cleaning up the reflecting pool?

Should it not be Trump's 'pool guy' who f*cked this up in the first place?

1. Depends what is in the contract.

The US government ordered hydrogen peroxide to be added to the pool, likely voiding the contract.

3. So taxpayers paid $14 million to have it ruined, now taxpayers are paying to have it cleaned up,

and eventually taxpayers will pay to have the job done right. Sounds like a win-win. I wonder if this is something that Donald and Elmo would categorize as "Waste, Fraud, and Abuse".

5. Exactly, and he'll get another buddy to do it.

2. The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool

is part of the National Mall and Memorial Parks which are managed by the National Park Service.

4. As a contractor, if I messed something up it was my responsibility to fix it, at my own expense.

6. The contractor will say the park service added the peroxide, thereby, voiding the warranty.
