President Donald Trump defended the restoration of the National Mall's Reflecting Pool, claiming the project was damaged by vandalism rather than construction failures. Trump said the pool, which he described as leaking since it opened, had been successfully restored before individuals allegedly cut the waterproofing material and damaged surrounding grass. He also criticized former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro's handling of the situation, accused the media of spreading "fake news," and said the Reflecting Pool would reopen within two weeks after repairs. The remarks came during a tense exchange with reporters, where Trump also discussed the July 4 celebrations and ongoing restoration work on Washington monuments.
