When announcing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool had been drained again, US President Donald Trump doubled down on his vandalism claims, but his latest account raises fresh questions. Online, Trump said the alleged "slashes" stretched for 300 yards, after previously describing them as 250, 300 and 350 feet. This comes as photos and video of the empty pool don't appear to show any obvious signs of the massive gash he described in the pool's liner.
Donald Trump has again revised the size of the alleged "gash" he says was carved into the floor of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool while repeating claims that the landmark was vandalised last month. But the US president's latest account has raised fresh questions, with no public evidence released to support his claims.
