‘She Folded Like an Umbrella!’ Trump Absolutely Buries Jeanine Pirro for Dropping Reflecting Pool Vandalism Case

President Donald Trump absolutely buried Jeanine Pirro for dropping criminal charges against a former U.S. Olympian accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

In a stunning rant from the Oval Office Monday, the president berated his U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia after she moved to drop the case against former Olympic canoeist David Hearn — stating that damage to the pool “was the result of a botched installation and not vandalism as initially represented by DOI.”

“Jeanine Pirro made a mistake,” Trump said bluntly — doubling down on his take from a Truth Social post Saturday. “There was vandalism.”

Trump proceeded to give a lengthy account of the work on the reflecting pool — conceding he was not “100% thrilled with the contractor.” But Trump made clear that despite what his own Justice Department said in court, he believes “there was vandalism” and that Pirro dropped the ball.

“Frankly, I think she choked,” Trump said. “Because the judge was really vicious. Instead of going after the people that did it, the judge went after her and went after her department, and I guess she choked. I don’t know what the hell happened.”

Trump was asked by MS NOW’s Jake Traylor, “Are you reconsidering her role?”

But the president, having got into a tiff with Traylor moments earlier, refused to entertain the question.

“You’re fake news,” Trump said. “Don’t ever talk again. You’re fake. You’re one of the worst in the business. Fortunately, nobody watches you.”

Moments later, Trump landed another attack on Pirro.

“I was disappointed with Jeanine Pirro!” Trump said — raising his voice. “Really disappointed with Jeanne Pirro! She folded like an umbrella! And people get away with things, and it’s a disgrace!”
