The job will have to be started over from a company that knows what they're doing, plus numerous repairs

Green Water Solutions!? If this were fiction, it would be rejected as too contrived.

This is not a "swimming pool," but the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool that was dedicated in 1922.

A no-bid nanobubble contract goes to a company controlled by a tRump donor and Mar-a-Lago neighbor, who also has a conviction for bribery? Of course!

Including choosing the no-bid company that he hired who is a donor and neighbor because he said this needed to be done ASAP, in time for the 250th anniversary.
