President Donald Trump\u2019s efforts to beautify Washington, D.C., have earned him rare praise from the left.<\/p>\n

Reporter Martin Austermuhle posted a photo on X showing a fountain at the Meridian Hill\/Malcolm X Park actually flowing with water, something that hasn\u2019t been seen in \u201cyears.\u201d He notes that the \u201c[National Park Service] started work on the long-dry fountain late last year, as part of a broader project to refurbish the park.\u201d<\/p>\n

This caught the attention of ActBlue communications strategist Carter Christensen.<\/p>\n

Wait a minute. You do realize you\u2019re giving Trump credit for something? You\u2019ll be removed from Dem party by Monday. Blasphemy!!!!<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t you silly Democrats realize that as soon as Dems take power again everything will start to decay? They don\u2019t want this restoration. Their goal is destruction. Why don\u2019t their constituents see it?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s great to see! (As former resident of that neighborhood many years ago). The fountain is so beautiful and the park is such a hidden gem<\/p>\n

As a neighbor of Meridian Hill Park, I couldn\u2019t be more thrilled to see the fountain working! Hope it stays on from now on.<\/p>\n

The administration has been ramping up efforts to clean up local landmarks ahead of the United States\u2019 250th birthday in July, as the president aims to curb crime and reinvest in the beautiful landscape that surrounds the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n
