Trump's obsession with the Kennedy Center reflects a larger delusion among the MAGA base: that they can bully people into liking them.
And they'd rather tantrum than accept this reality.

So what happens to the National Symphony Orchestra? Where are they supposed to go? DAR hall?
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump says he will move to close Washington’s Kennedy Center performing arts venue for two years starting in July for construction

Grrr…argh…
The Kennedy Center has been in continuous operation for 55 years.
Trump and Ric Grenell destroyed it in one year by making it so toxic that nobody will perform there.
Now they have to shut it down like a Trump casino.

Everything that MAGA is saying right now about "retribution" for Kirk is basically a scam. It's all about creating justification for the full-scale targeting of *innocents* on the liberal-left. It's not payback or retribution in any real sense.
