President Donald Trump inspected the progress on the renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on Thursday evening. In doing so, the presidential motorcade drove across the drained pool’s surface to inspect the new “American flag blue” protective coating being installed.

Afterward, the president exited his vehicle and answered questions from the media. He was joined by multiple Cabinet members, including Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, Border Czar Tom Homan, and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin. Trump touted the success of the renovations and the aesthetics of the new coating at the base of the pool, calling it a “great color.”
