The reflecting pool is currently sitting abandoned with no water after Trump spent millions from taxpayers. Just in case you need a reason to vote.

DC boxed in the protesting farmers. Then the blizzard hit.
In 1979, farmers brought hundreds of tractors to Washington to protest low farm prices, rising costs and high interest rates.
The demonstrations snarled traffic, led to arrests and eventually left many tractors barricaded on the Mall.
Then Washington got buried in snow.
Some of those same farmers used their tractors to clear snow, help stranded residents and transport people during the storm.
One of the stranger chapters in DC protest history.
