Trump is a dick but the claim that the founders were deists or even less religious got debunked years ago.

Being a Deist did not mean that you were 'less religious', it's just that while they believed in God, they didn't accept the idea that man and God interacted with each other. In order words, they didn't accept the idea that Jesus was the son of God or that he took human form and lived among the people in the New Testament. Okay, that made them non-Christian, but then there are a lot of people on this planet who aren't Christians.
But getting back to the basic tenants of Deism, it's like Issac Newton speculating on the concept of God being like a 'clock maker', who created the universe, 'wound it up' and then set it in motion while he sat back and watched how it progressed.

"National Park Service employees observed Hearn removing the liner with both hands and damaging the sealant. She said one employee told him to stop, but Hearn allegedly shouted at the employee, questioning why she cared about the pool"

If Hearn was able to hold a piece of the liner in his hands, then it had already come loose from the bottom of the pool. After all, the pool is between 18 and 30 inches deep. How was he supposed to have reached in and ripped up the liner if the water was that deep without getting soaked, which all of the images/videos published shows no such situation? I'm sure that if this ever goes to trial, that those images/videos will be used to show that there was no way that Hearn could have reached all the way to the bottom of the pool, let alone tear a large, thick chunk of urethane coating from the bottom where it was supposed to have been applied so as to permanently adhere to the concrete.
