Richard Grenell, an ally of President Donald Trump who oversaw far reaching changes at the Kennedy Center that prompted many artists to abandon the iconic performing arts venue, will step down as the institution's president. https://to.pbs.org/46Yoj9W

... Grenell's tenure as interim president of the Kennedy Center since February 2025 has been marked by tumult, plagued by high-profile performance cancellations, protests, declining ticket sales and financial strain as he sought to execute the president's vision for the arts center. ...

So, instead of Pres Trump accepting the blame for the tumult he caused, he is taking it out on others.

So typical.

I'mm looking forward to Ric Grenell's trial in four years. He played a big part in bringing this country down, both back in 2016 and now.

Misleading headline. I was expecting something much more gruesome before I opened the thread.

Pretty soon the Kennedy Center will only be hosting residencies by Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and Nicki Minaj. Perhaps Lee Greenwood will do the opening acts. Ted will take a dump on the stage for his encore.

More and more it is obvious that Trump's main job is to ruin America, divide us one from another and from our international allies.
