Trump made the accusation in a social media post on Sunday without saying why he believes it’s the work of vandals instead of trampled turf from the Independence Day festivities. The Republican president posted a photo showing a once-grassy area by the World War II Memorial, now patchy and brown across much of the sprawling turf.
“Look what VANDALS did to the grass connecting the vandalized World War II Monument and the vandalized Reflecting Pool, which will be opened again, and better than ever, shortly,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform.
Seriously, a ten-year-old could have told him this would be the result.
To be fair, the Toddler-in-Chief probably doesn't remember what was on that patch of grass such a short time ago. With his steel sieve memory, gnat-like attention span, and love of blaming others for everything, it's not surprising to hear him make these kinds of claims.

^Trump blaming other people for things Trump did is practically Trump's raison d'etre, almost as much as Trump taking credit for things done by people who are not Trump.

^It used to be said, and with some justification, that Republicans couldn’t win a primary without Trump and they couldn’t win a general election with him.
The first part of that no longer appears to be the case.
