Trump threatens to sue major US news network over Reflecting Pool coverage

Donald Trump Reflecting Pool

Donald Trump is threatening to sue ABC News over its coverage of his administration's renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
Trump claims ABC failed to report that previous administrations spent significantly more on the pool without success, while his $16 million project was successful until 'vandalism' occurred.
The renovation project has faced issues, including increased costs, delays, algae growth, and cracking, which Trump attributes to vandals.
At least five individuals have been arrested in connection with alleged vandalism at the pool, though one, former Olympian David Hearn, denies the accusation.
This threat follows a pattern of Trump suing or threatening media outlets, and he has reportedly focused more on this construction project than other significant events.
