Its so much harder than you think. This would take a team of about 20 guys a month to do right. He got some little company for maralago to do it. He probably flew them up and got them hotel rooms and tours and everything. They just started putting blue paint down. That is concrete that has been under water for decades.

The process: Power wash the entire pool with high pressure for about a week Have professional concrete guys patch any holes Vacuum up any particulate Seal with two coats of concrete primer tinted blue rated to be under water Clean the whole surface again to ensure there arent loose particles anywhere by thoroughly vacuuming again Then two coats of the blue topcoat

It would take at least a month and the guys they got to do it just know how to do smaller swimming pools that dont need as much prep and they are "ccommercial" work, which usually means its done as cheaply as possible.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk

A child is doing this. A child surrounded by people who all kick his commands down the ladder, each person down the rung knowing even less how to do their job right than the Orange Twitler at the top. So by the time it gets to the last person who sends it it’s just: use some leftover blue paint they found in some warehouse from the 1980s and pay some trump crony contractor a crapload of money to hire another contractor who will be lucky to be paid to do the shitty painting job.

When 80% of the funds go to politicians bank accounts this is what happens.

You see this all the time in third world countries.

When all you know is grifting, you can't just suddenly pivot to actually bidding out and completing large and expensive projects.

It goes entirely against his nature. This is literally all he knows. I actually do not think he would even know where to start to actually build something lasting and worthwhile.
