Maybe he will resurrect Phantom of the Opera and Miss Saigon.

Resurrect? Miss Saigon ran in 2019, Phantom in 2016.

Although his opinion of Wagner seems to have a hilarious footnote: https://www.therestisnoise.com/2017/12/trump-on-wagner.html

Between this and Pentagon banning books in military affiliated schools, there must be nothing else going on in the world to be spending time on such pressing issues.

The woman cannot sing. At all.

It's too bad. I won't be setting foot in the KC for at least the next 4 years.

And I hope the only artists willing to perform there stays in line with the caliber of talent like kid rock and hulk hogan.

So what happens to the Kennedy Center after it goes out of business?

“Trump Center”

He can’t even do stuff that doesn’t matter that much without doing something illegal.

Damn. Millions upon Millions stolen from every taxpayer, even from the Dept of Education. Nice, huh?

Drain the damn swamp already.

The federal government doesn’t spend a dime on that salary. But you know that, right? You aren’t just making crap up out of thin air or course.

He actually does enjoy power classical music like the 1812 Overture. Beethoven’s 9th. The acclaimed Hooked on Classics series that was all the rage in the 80s. Back then he noted how he enjoys Mozart and Beethoven and trips to The Met.

I expect the NSO programming to skew in that direction. Less Bartok. Less Mahler.

What about Musk’s $20 BILLION in federal government contracts? When is that being drained?

Pure retaliation for Caroline speaking against RFK Jr, a.k.a., worm brain.

Another thing that won’t buy him any class.

So the Village People will be playing the Kennedy Center?

It really just has become a string of stupid the last few days. Has he really run out of material this quickly...

Musical theater acts/staff are very left leaning, I do not think he is getting those shows there.

Wagner is considered German nationalist aligned.
