The MS NOW host mocks the president's "intimate knowledge" of the landmark's history – "including things that are totally made up" The post Trump’s Reflecting Pool Delusion Is ‘Frankly Stupid’ but ‘Still Very Dangerous,’ Nicolle Wallace Says appeared first on TheWrap .

In an interview segment for "Deadline: White House," Nicolle Wallace of MS NOW criticized President Donald Trump's "lies" regarding the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, claiming that the issue was exaggerated by vandals. Wallace mocked Trump's knowledge of the pool's history, stating that the majority of his claims were fabricated.

Despite his department of Justice dismissing the vandalism claims, Wallace emphasized that Trump's false statements were still dangerous and undermined by his own justice department. Wallace referenced Tom Nichols of The Atlantic, who warned that Trump's detachment from reality due to his irrationality poses a grave threat. A former Fox News host, Judge Jeanine Pirro, had a confrontation with Trump following her report on the pool issues, highlighting the seriousness of the situation despite its seemingly trivial nature.
