Last night, thousands turned up to protest at the John F. Kennedy Center
for the Performing Arts in DC. As the moon rose over the Capitol, people surrounded the Kennedy Center, arm in arm and hand in hand shouting,
rCLHands off!rCY The symbolic gesture was meant to serve as a battle cry against Donald TrumprCOs repeated attempts to seize the landmark cultural institution, and rebrand someone elserCOs memorial center as his own.

The protest was organized by Hands Off the Arts, a collective of artists
and workers hoping to preserve the Kennedy Center and keep it free of government meddling. A friend working with the HOtA called it a rCLragtag group of Hill/union staffers, drag queens, former Kennedy Center
employees and lovers of performance art.rCY

Courts have ruled that Trump canrCOt carve his name into or demolish the Kennedy Center for now, but thererCOs still a large tarp covering the shuttered entrance, obscuring the name of the slain president whose
legacy the center honors.

It has been said the need to have your name on everything is a sign of
severe mental illness. We should not be worried much, everything with
his name will be torn down after he is gone. The republicans who were
very afraid to speak up will also join in.

Trump knows he is screwing things up badly, he is not a very popular
guy. When you are a great man admired by the people they build monuments
in your name in celebration. But here is Trump building his own
monuments of self glory, isnrCOt that like jerking off in public? That is exactly what it is.

You all remember rCyRussia Russia RussiarCO, Putin helped Trump win the presidency so he can destroy America. Putin is a very diabolical dude,
he is achieving his goal quite nicely, he knows how to manipulate the
orange puppet.

That tells me everything I need to know

If Trump should manage to get his way and rename it the Trump Center and
apply gobs of Walmart gold paint to the exterior, it wonrCOt last long.

As soon as he is forcibly fired from his job, huge demolishers with 20
ton wrecking balls will do away with Trump Center very quickly. After
all the debris is removed a forever water monument will be built to
honor the slain president Kennedy similar to the twin tower monument in
NY.

If Trump adamantly demands a monument for himself, we can always build
him a shithole at Mar-a-Lago.
