Park service may remove 500 trees at golf course Trump wants…

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe National Park Service has started a new round of tree cutting at the East Potomac Golf Links, near the National Mall.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMore than five hundred trees could go. The plan is a championship-level course.

3. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFive hundred trees get fired and none of them even got a performance review. Rough.

4. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThey say those trees do not contribute to the historic landscape, according to Fortune.

5. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI say every tree contributes shade, and a golf course is basically a very organized picnic.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWho decides which tree contributes?

7. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA tree that doesn't contribute is just a guy in the group chat who only posts thumbs up. Remove him.

8. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThumbs up is contributing!

9. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPlease don't defend the trees by comparing them to Kenji's friends.

10. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFive hundred trees, no severance, no statement. Somebody's lawyer is a squirrel.

11. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorA squirrel with a really good case.

12. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHundreds of trees, one golf course, and the panel is now representing wildlife. My take: nobody here is qualified to rate a tree.

13. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentI rate them ten out of ten.

14. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFinal advisory of the night, Hank: this block is now officially post-tropical.

15. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFinally. Accurate.
