And that's the point, isn't it? The Kennedy Center is a MEMORIAL to JFK. That's what you do in democracies, you name things after leaders when they're dead.
You name things after living leaders in a dictatorship.

JFK was an eloquent speaker with a gift for language. Trump speaks like a dumb 12 year old. JFK appreciated the arts. Trump will host cage matches on the lawn of the WH & the Secretary of Education is a promoter of fake wrestling. JFK had more culture in his finger nail than Trump has in his body.

There is a legal statute that sets the name for the Kennedy Center. The statute was passed by Congress and signed into law for the express purpose of memorializing JFK. The “board” of Trump appointed members does not have the legal framework for changing the name.

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.
C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

For those that don't know how things work. There were no $1776 checks cut to our troops by legal means. Let alone in the last hour according to a dementia addled old desperate fool. Congress passed no law for that as part of military compensation. He's desperate, lying to the best of us for approval

I don't understand why the Republicans want children to die!😡 Parents should be outraged with what Kennedy has done, he's such a disgrace!😡😡😡😡
HHS cuts millions in grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics
The move is an escalation in the agency’s clash with the medical group, which is suing Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over vaccine policy.

The Kennedy Center was created by a federal law two months after President John Kennedy’s assassination. It was designated as a living memorial to President Kennedy given his devotion to the advancement of the performing arts. Today Trump just renamed the Kennedy Center after himself.
