President Trump must be increasingly frustrated by the mindset of the opposition in Washington DC who demand the old, broken and ill maintained buildings and venues must be left in a state of decay. The opposition to making America great again is strongest in our nation’s decaying capital. Alas, that sentiment is representative of the ideological mindset of those who prefer filth and depression.
Speaking from his Truth Social account, President Trump responds to a judicial order [Read pdf Here] demanding the Kennedy Center be left to fall apart, until congress takes action to restore it.
PRESIDENT TRUMP – “Shockingly, a Judge appointed by Barack Hussein Obama, Christopher Cooper, ruled that The Kennedy Center, which was going to close in early July for largescale renovations and construction due to years of neglect, decay, and poor maintenance, and which was to be transformed by the Trump Administration into the Finest Facility of its kind, anywhere in the World, is not allowed to close for these renovations, which would not be possible to properly do without such a closure. Additionally, Judge Cooper ruled that the 36 Member Board of Trustees, which unanimously voted to add the name “TRUMP” onto the former Kennedy Center, making it The Trump Kennedy Center, did not have the right to do such an addition, and the name, “TRUMP,” must be removed.”
“The Kennedy Center has lost, over the years, prior to our getting involved a short while ago, Hundreds of Millions of Dollars — In some cases, including ridiculous construction jobs that were done, over 100 Million Dollars a year. I took great pride in taking over a losing Institution, and looked forward to making it into a Great and Prestigious WINNER for Washington, D.C., and indeed, the United States of America. Unfortunately, Judge Cooper and the Radical Left would rather see it DIE than have President Trump transform it into something that everyone could be proud of, much as I have done, in many cases, throughout my life, and recently, with all of the construction, renovations, and “fix ups” that we have completed with the Department of Interior on Waterfalls, Fountains, Monuments, and other things of Beauty that we have brought back to life in a now SAFE AND SECURE, after Record Setting Crime, Washington, D.C., which is thriving like, perhaps, never before!
Therefore, based on the fact that the Radical Left Democrats care more about opposing your favorite President, ME, than saving a dying Performing Arts Center, almost all of which lose large amounts of money throughout the Country, we are going to be working with Congress to transfer this failing Institution back to them so they can make a determination as to what to do with it. Judge Cooper was given a presentation by leading Building and Construction Experts as to how structurally dangerous the Building is, with rotting beams, parking areas that are subject to collapse, and various other Life and Safety problems, in addition to the fact that it also needs a MAJOR renovation, from an aesthetic standpoint, but he was not “swayed,” and said he wants the Building to, incredibly, remain open and, therefore, dangerous.
Judge Cooper should be ashamed of himself! I cannot be involved with a situation where danger to the Public is allowed to flourish in plain and open sight. Unless I am free to do what I do better than anyone else, bring this Institution back, physically, financially, and artistically, I have no interest in continuing what could only be a hopeless journey into “NEVER NEVER LAND.” There has never been a President of the United States who has been treated so unfairly by the Courts as I but, that’s OK, I will continue to do, what is considered to be, a great job for the wonderful people of our Country. I have instructed the Department of Commerce to make all necessary arrangements with Congress to allow a full and complete transfer of this Institution, giving them the responsibility for its Operation, Maintenance, and Management. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” ~ President DONALD J. TRUMP

The image above is not just a meme; it’s the reality of the environment.
The physical and spiritual rot permeates Washington DC with a toxicity you can sense in your bones when you get close to it. It’s like a disturbing low-frequency vibration that is unsettling for those who carry goodness as a compass heading.
The evil manifests of corruption, deception and dishonesty create an environmental energy just like all other outputs in life. When I first traveled back to Washington DC in 2020 it had been many years since my previous visit. The difference was an immediate feeling of darkness. To me that image above is exactly how my senses would describe it.
Donald Trump was the only presidential candidate in history who had never spent a night in Washington DC prior to his inauguration. Think about it.

Instead of handing it over to the Con-gress Critters, just cancel all shows and mothball it.
As many have already pointed out, Con-gress will find a way to grift off of it. They don’t need another revenue stream.
I love that he’s fixing things up but I dont think he should name it after himself.
To me, that’s a punk move similar to knocking down an historic statue which tarnishes the act of revival.
It also feeds the TDS sufferer’s.
GOOD! Screw’em!
it’s known as ‘maximum trolling’
More DemoCommie heads will explode!
He did not do that; the board of directors did that with a unanimous vote – not his decision…
it was an honor bestowed.
Let’s have a in-depth look at the judge shall we?
https://dailycaller.com/2026/05/29/judge-cooper-amy-jeffress-married-joe-biden-personal-attorney-blocks-trump-name-on-kennedy-center/
A judge, or anyone else for that matter, being involved with Biden in the past doesn’t amount to a hill of beans at this point. Biden hasn’t been calling his own shots for years. The fact that the judge was appointed by Obama is the real story.
Did you not read the article??
Yes Betsy, I read both of them. The article you put forth, made it sound as if this judge and his wife Amy, were connected more to Biden and his wishes/influence rather than being a judge appointed by Obama. Sundances article pointed out that this is another judge that was appointed by Obama.
Not so much that as to whom he is married was the reason I posted.. Which with so many of these so called judges is a huge red flag.
The judiciary no longer wears the patina of impartiality. Or there would be no judge shopping otherwise.
Biden-, Obama-, Clinton-, Bush-, or name your appointee judge…the barrel is contaminated with rotted fruit.
The Kenyan is the real puppet master.
The kenyan is also a puppet
Surprise /s
That at least takes my criticism away from Trump, but it was still a hypocritical move – if you’re restoring the past, then you should maintain its name as well.
come on don’t you get it? He’s trolling the people that have been making him miserable and us along with him.
I respect your POV, John, and do not mean to be “piling on”, but it wasn’t Trump who let the Kennedy Center fall into disrepair. Obama could have fixed it, Biden could have fixed it (scratch that), or the Kennedy family could have fixed it. Trump is a builder. He fixes things! I personally thought the name change was an appropriate honor since he was going to do what his processors, and others, failed to do. Just my two-cents worth.
Nobody removed Kennedy’s name – entirely *preserved*, not even renewed, upgraded, OR shifted in position;
**Maintenance** IS THE WHOLE POINT
how is that unclear or unrecognizable?
Awww, poor John.
Seriously?
Look in the mirror.
no, John, you look in the mirror
When it doesn’t exist any longer – will you be just as sad?
PDJT is Emmanuel Goldstein to the Dem Left’s Big Brother, and so I love the name change….shove it in their Commie faces at every opportunity, with the goal of provoking these malignant Leftists & their useful idiots, and driving them completely insane. It causes them to act even more irrationally, and facilitates the goal of wiping their filthy hive religion out of our country.
He didn’t, the Center’s Board of Trustees voted to put PDJT’s name on the building.

Sounds like the DemocRats won another one.
“won”???
Um, no… this won’t stick either – far too slimy;
thick with the residue from the oleaginous hands that threw it against the wall.
Who is going to stop it, the SCOTUS? They’re not going to take any more cases that require them to put on their big boy pants and show some fortitude. They, like the rest of DC, have survived 6 of Trump’s 8 years so far and are relieved that they are in the homestretch before things go back to business as usual. We are at Hail Mary time at the buzzer now. I feel like we need something explosive to even put a dent in this level of corruption. My level of disgust for DC politics and corruption is immeasurable.
To edify Bots, AI, useful idiots, and or successfully demoralized Human Americans…
Well… thanks but no thanks for sharing a fervent prayer for POTUS’ and SCOTUS’, America’s and MAGA’s defeat.

Thank God for it.
Would love to see the hangman drop Norm Eisen thru the trap door.
Congress delays/blocks Save America Act but will quickly act on saving the Kennedy Center. It’s gotta be worth at least $500 million with all the kickbacks and waste that will be involved over a 10 year “project” span.
Jay Powell can really run up the construction tab to billions although he’s not in the same league with Gavin Newsom!

How the name of President Kennedy has been tarnished and sullied by creeps like Norm Eisen.
President Kennedy was a Democrat but he loved America, projected pride in America and as far as I could tell, hated Commies! Nazis, too.
So, recently learning from a clip on “The View” that Karen Bass received a “Profiles in Courage” award, I have to tell you that the “Profiles in Courage” award has to be as full of rot and termites as the Kennedy Center!
The Democrats today are NOT the same Party of my parents generation! That Party has moved so far Left and then accused the Right as moving too far to the Right! In my younger years, I tried to balance the vote I cast as picking the best of both Party candidates to power. Today you can’t even see who is associated with each Party in a general election! They’ve removed the R, D, and I designation. Now you have to make a list of who is who to take into the voting booth. I recall you used to be able to vote all one Party by selecting one lever and all votes were cast to that Party. That was 5 decades ago. Outcomes were announced in a very short period of time (a day or two), not weeks or months! Our problems have multiplied with the changes, and NOT for the better! Seems Americans have become more complicit and lazier! JMHO.
JFK and Bobby Sr. were staunch anti – communists. Their kid brother, Teddy…
Another ruling with NO basis in law from an Obama judge. The Center BOT voted to change the name and do the renovation. Perfectly legal.
Don’t give jurisdiction to Congress. They’ll just spend a billion dollars to create a monstrosity.
In all honesty they won’t do anything.
I think Trump expects something calamitous to happen — a sort of ‘told you so’ moment — to the embarrassment of Cooper, Eisen all of the “we” he said won, if indeed they are capable of embarrassment.
The real ‘we’ of this nation did NOT win.
If you know how to read faces. Which Can be taught. But some are born with. You will know, when you see. Christopher Cooper…..
Norm Eissen is as vile as they come. If bolshevick bigots like him ever attain total power. There will 100% be an American holodomor.
It could happen. Pray!
Somewhere in Africa there was a tall hotel that the local government was dragging its feet on permits to finish. At some point the builder got fed up and poured concrete inside until it was a solid cube. I recommend something similar in this case.
Let it CRUMBLE.!!!

Geez… Bad… That is a NUTTY Comment.???
Who has legal standing to challenge the name change?
The most obvious way to address this issue is for Congress, but with a divided Congress, this is an unrealistic plan.
The center was originally built as the National Cultural Center in a 1958 law. It was renamed the John F. Kennedy Center by an act of Congress in 1964 as a living memorial. 20 U.S.C. 3, states (with irrelevant exceptions in this case) that “no additional memorials or plaques in the nature of memorials shall be designated or installed in the public areas of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.” It is hard to find any authority of the board that would undo or delegate that power. On the other hand: Is a name change an “additional memorial or plaque”?
This issue this could result in years of litigation.
The Center got the okay to proceed in 1958 but was not built until after the JFK assassination. LBJ was at the groundbreaking.
The reason being is that it was supposed to be a public/private funded project. Private donations never amounted to what was hoped and after the death of Kennedy Congress went ahead and funded it to get it built. Even so it took a long time to build. I think it was in the 70’s before it actually opened.
You are spot on!
Creating the National Cultural Center | Kennedy Center
Cold anger.
Norm buddy this isn’t a win.
It is a win in his rabid leftist mind.
Look at Cuba. It is to demoralize the people and take away their hope of something decent and good.
Faith.
From a semi practical stand point, call in the fire marshal and let them shut it down.

How could this be anything other than intentional provocation?
Aesthetics? Starting with tacking “Donald Trump” on top of “The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for The Performing Arts” ?
(Tacky)
The answer is that it could be an intentional provocation designed to add to the running distraction mill feeding public perception and discourse.
It’s working. Few are tracking the grave tectonics in play. Like this one, designed and deployed by the US on only the West, a long-term attrition mechanism:
https://jessicar.substack.com/p/nerve-brain-and-blood-vessel-damage
It takes super smart experts to design something like genetic manipulation devices. They knew when they made it what it would do.
It must be very stressful being a puppet figurehead serving the veiled supra-powerful forces acting through the agency under Sauron’s Eye in the CTH article image.
There’s a lot more to this than just sticking your name on top of the Kennedy Center to turn it from classy to tacky.
Trump appears to be aging rapidly now. Here he is signing the Bill kicking the next biowarfare democide program into gear, using the next iteration of bioweapon (sa-modRNA injections):

To be followed by:

For sure, as the economy sinks, the venal med-pharma sector will do anything for revenue, and if the government dangles $25 billion with promises of several hundred billion more they will deliver the payload (virus + shots) and the system to execute (public-private biotyranny framework to force the shots into the population under the guise of “protecting public health”).
It must be tough living with terminal TDS.
Big pharma are murderers and they know it. I don’t understand why Trump sidles up to them. I think he can’t resist not being proud of what he did during covid although he was being horribly deceived by the very people that are befriending him and I’m sure flattering him now.
You need to get that TDS checked.
It’s taken away your ability to reason and process information, apparently.
You keep talking like talking like this,they are going to check you into the psycho ward.
You act like a blind man. Open your eyes
“………..People with mutations in the MED20 gene are associated with basal ganglia degeneration and brain atrophy.”
You have self diagnosed again.
Good for you.
I love my President!
It’s so ridiculously obvious that Eisen and his ilk do not care about the level of decay in DC, and would let the federal buildings, as well as the city itself, fall apart, if only to stop President Trump from improving it. Having President Trump put his name on buildings might be an ‘issue’, but actually stopping the renovation of buildings and monuments that are falling apart because you hate the President? Ridiculous.
Why not appeal the decision?
The rot within our justice system is worse than we all thought possible.
A guy at work showed me this:
I’d say that it’s not radicalizing, but uplifting to see the improvements.
These are our cultural symbols and they’ve been desecrated.
COME JESUS COME!
It’s not that the Democrats prefer filth and depression. It is that Democrats want to have control of funds to be spent so that they can siphon off 10%, 20%, 30% for their friends and their own pockets. What Trump should do is restart the effort to retrofit the Kennedy Center and use Biden’s name instead AND put up a statue of Biden in the lobby. The model for the statue would be Biden’s visit to Europe where he wandered off and talked to the trees while staring into space.
Or the time he made boom – boom in his britches at the Vatican. Better yet, how about this instead?
Does anyone else remember when Pelosi would not pass the CARES Act until they funded the Kennedy Center? Seriously, she held it up for weeks until she got money for it. For some reason, I remember an amount that started with a $5 But she ended up getting $25 million… Then they “furloughed” the employees anyway. There was another $270 million given to the Kennedy Center at the same time. I imagine the $25 million went to the Nancy Pelosi self-help group, but where did the other $270 million go?
We approach the end times at a rapidly increasing pace!!
Call the bulldozers in and have OSHA declare it unfit for human habitation. Kennedy Center no more.
What I’ve heard is that the problem has been with the programming — booking shows with limited appeal except for the lefty “arts” crowd, which doesn’t provide the revenue needed to maintain the place. The real revolt is by the insiders who don’t want to put on shows that people would actually pay to attend.
Guardians of decay–Eisen and all the corrupt judges, senators and congressmen.
