What specifically was shown at Kennedy center that it would be classified as "conservative" or "liberal"?


No idea but what musical theater shows/acts will actually agree to have shows there now? Actors will definitely boycott even trying out with Trump there and DC folks will boycott tickets.

They can try out a local college drama club.


Don't think people will pay a hundred bucks plus or a ticket anymore but sure have at it

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


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

Maybe he should first focus on cleaning up the homeless encampments under the highways around there first? And maybe painting over all that rust on one particularly sad looking bridge near it


He',s deporting the homeless to El Salvador.

How is he going to pander to his base? Hee Haw, the ballet?

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

Has Trump ever been to a show, concert, or even set foot into any art venue?
