U.S. President Donald Trump made a surprise visit on Thursday to inspect renovations to the Lincoln Memorial's reflecting pool, one of several high-profile projects the former real estate developer is pursuing across the nation’s capital as he seeks to leave a visible mark on Washington. “It’s really beautiful, and it’s going to be fantastic,” Trump told reporters during a visit to the site, where he viewed ongoing work on the drained basin.
