Trump Calls D.C. Golf Course 'Trash Island' After Court Hearing

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorPresident Trump posted photos of East Potomac golf course, called it Trash Island, and captioned them 'Here are pictures of Trash Island for the judge to study.'

2. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorBettina Okonkwo-Ray joins us from a retreat she won't name. Let's stick to the facts, shall we? Start with the photos.

3. BO

   Bettina Okonkwo-RayYes. Absolutely.

4. BO

   Bettina Okonkwo-RayI cleansed the energy of that place, well, I lit a candle near a map of it, and the debris is clearly a thought somebody keeps having.

5. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWhose thought? East Potomac Park is federal land, run by the National Park Service, which sits under the Interior Department.

6. BO

   Bettina Okonkwo-RayThe land holds the thought, Vera. I tuned my brass singing bowl to the Potomac, and it hums sadly whenever anyone mentions a sea wall.

7. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHe captioned one photo 'Collapsing Sea Wall — Very dangerous to one's health!' and posted debris, flooding and damaged fences. So who is he warning?

8. BO

   Bettina Okonkwo-RayHimself, in a sense. I walked the shoreline in spirit, well, I looked at a photo, and the spirit said, please stop posting.

9. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou looked at a photo.

10. BO

    Bettina Okonkwo-RayA very high-resolution one. Now, he says renovation starts November fifteenth and the course closes for about fifteen months.

11. BO

    Bettina Okonkwo-RayThat's a long time to hold space for a hole.

12. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorBut a judge ordered three days' notice before any construction, and he posted that work would begin 'IMMEDIATELY.' Does intention beat a court order?

13. BO

    Bettina Okonkwo-RayNo. Not in a courtroom.

14. BO

    Bettina Okonkwo-RayBut I did hear more than four hundred trees were cut down, and I sent thoughts and prayers to two. Two had a strong signal.

15. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorJudge Reyes asked, 'Do I believe the president of the United States or do I believe you?'

16. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIf you were the judge, would you take the president's word for it, or the word of a woman with a singing bowl?

17. BO

    Bettina Okonkwo-RayA quieter docket. And a second singing bowl, because the first one just cracked.

18. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSo the one person who can fix Trash Island is the one who posted it, and he'd like the judge to hold on while he finds the form.
