Not a lawyer but I really don’t think the law can protect the Kennedy Center. It relies on goodwill and shared purpose. If the people in power want to corrupt it, lawsuits will not protect it.

We can consider the KC out of business.

Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and Lee Greenwood will take up residence. No one will go except tourists from red states.

It will fail within a year and Trump (or one of his degenerate kids) will turn it into a casino with gold toilets and crushed velvet paintings of Trump everywhere.

And the THAT will fail because Trump apparently doesn't know how to run a business where people literally hand you all their money.

I think it's slated for a hotel. But trying to remove DC home rule may allow a casino/hotel

Yeah it will be going out of business due to all the great operas and shows. Not having transvestite dance parties will definitely slow business down to a grinding hault.

If the LGBTQ community feels unwelcome, it will be nothing but the Liberty U Chorus or the Mormon Tabernacle choir. Hardly big ticket sellers.

Will there be a straight-washing stage show on the formation of the Village People?

He talked about a drag show at the Kennedy Center. What show was this? Kinky Boots? The Cyndi Lauper and Harvey Feirstein musical? The Tony award winning musical… I hate musicals but artistic suppression never works well.

Lee Greenwood sang God Bless the USA at the Ball I attended last month and he was AWESOME. The DCUM crown likes to be snarky about all things related to Trump and his supporters, but don't forget that we control the Presidency, the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court. Trump is getting all of his cabinet appointments confirmed and has done more in his first three weeks than Joe and Kamala did in their full term.
I bet Lee Greenwood does sing at the Kennedy Center at some point and most Americans will love it.


Trump and his cronies have destroyed Democracy more than anyone else in the first few weeks.
I am convinced MAGA nuts did steal this last election. There were reports of MAGA people putting up false ballot boxes in Democrat leaning areas and burning the ballots. And reports of MAGA people working in polling places. They would claim there was something “wrong” with a persons registration and give them a temporary ballot only to destroy the ballots earlier. A few thousand votes in key states could have easily stole the election.

I believe Trump LOST in 2020 and MAGA people cheated to win this last time. There were plenty of MAGA people saying they didn’t want Democracy if they can’t have Trump. These crazies have pictures of Jesus sanctifying him, which is incredibly vile. Nothing is out of bounds for them.
