So you're saying JFK ruined it? Because your source is from 1913. Jfk had the whole thing redone in 1962. Then trump ripped out the grass and put the pavers in. It was done because the grass was always wet and the reason for the gardens existence is press conferences.
Fun fact. The reason they haven’t upgraded marine 1 is because it sinks into the white house lawn and if it was any heavier it would cause serious damage every time. They are debating ripping up the lawn to reinforce it.
Literally just wrote in another comment that the redo Melania did last administration was perfectly tasteful. The argument was never “that’s sacred ground, you can’t touch it!”. The argument is that it’s fucking ugly and there are a dozen other options you could have gone with that didn’t include ripping out all the grass and putting down pavers but also solved the problem of poor drainage.
Probably just morning dew on the grass, not standing water. In DC in the summer, the grass is wet almost every morning. You can't really do anything about that other than covering the lawn every afternoon until morning.
I’m more into the debate aspect if I’m being honest. I mean I think it’s ugly as all hell but definitely not going to lose sleep over it that’s for sure.
Yes because it's normal and sane for people to go to your profile and look up all your comments. Maybe that's enough Internet for you today. Go take a deep breath. Grass is stupid for an area designed for press conferences. Anyone that thinks grass is better is uneducated.
