AMERICAN FLAG BLUE

There is a pool in Washington.
It sits in front of the Lincoln Memorial.
It has been there since 1922.
Millions of people have stood at its edge.
Martin Luther King spoke nearby.
He had a dream.

President Trump had the pool painted "American flag blue." The project cost millions. Workers are now refilling it. Some visitors say the results are subtle.

Subtle.

A Dream and a Paint Job

Abraham Lincoln is on the memorial.
He freed the slaves.
He believed in a united country.
He did not specify a colour for the water.

Martin Luther King stood near that pool in 1963.
He spoke about equality, dignity, and the future.
He also did not mention the colour of the water.

Trump painted it blue.
American flag blue.
Millions of dollars.
Subtle results.

Switzerland has lakes.
They are blue already.
Nobody painted them.

What the Declaration Says

In 1776, the founders wrote about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
They did not write about interior design.
They did not write about pools.
They wrote about freedom.
