Steve Goodale, a swimming pool expert, <u>told PBS News<\/u> the type of surface coatings used in the reflecting pool renovation &#8220;are extremely strong, durable and relatively puncture resistant.&#8221; He said he has seen no evidence the pool lining was cut by vandals, and said issues with preparing or installing the lining could easily have caused the problems: &#8220;It is literally a technical masterclass of challenging conditions,&#8221; he said. David McFayden, CEO of the paint and inspections services company KTA-Tator, told <u>Scientific American<\/u> that how the pool was prepared before the coating was applied is worth investigating. <u>FactCheck.org<\/u> has put together a timeline of documentation during the renovation process and found the new material in the pool had problems before the alleged vandalism. <u>Democrats this week<\/u> said they want the administration to explain why contracts related to the pool\u2019s renovation were awarded without a bidding process and if the speed of the process contributed to the ongoing problems. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=1071\">Leon Black Walks Out Of Epstein Interview After Being Subpoenaed, Decries \u2018Political Stunt\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>CRUCIAL QUOTE<\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;These are the people we are dealing with,&#8221; Trump said of the alleged vandals. &#8220;These are the people who want to destroy our country.&#8221; <\/p>\n<h2>CONTRA<\/h2>\n<p>Trump earlier had <u>said<\/u> it would be extremely hard for vandals to damage the pool\u2019s lining.

He said at the time that the project would add an \u201cAmerican flag blue\u201d paint job to the basin\u2019s surface, cost about $2 million and last up to 50 years. Work took place in the spring and early summer and the pool was refilled in June, but an algae bloom returned just days later, turning the pool a sickly green color.
