Trump Aide Fumes as MAGA-fied Kennedy Center Sees Sales Dip

Friday, December 05, 2025

Despite traditionally being regarded as one of America's most storied cultural icons, the Kennedy Center has had significant difficulty filling seats ever since President Donald Trump took over the vaunted institution earlier this year.

Senate Democrats are investigating the Kennedy Center over its spending practices and booking deals, accusing its leadership, installed by President Trump, of "self-dealing, favoritism and waste" amid programming shifts and plummeting ticket sales.

Cultured people tend to avoid the mouth-breathing rubes PEDO DONNIE attracts.

Well, this whole ticket thingy will change when the Trump Center launches it's month-long residency of Alexis Wilkins, Kid Rock, Ted Nugent, Lee Greenwood, Snoop Dogg, Kanye West (via phone), Carrie Underwood and Lady A. Man, the doors will be busted! Tickets will start at $9,999 for the entire series. Parking $50 per hour, no refunds, no rain checks, no weapons, no outside food. Platinum sponsor: Trump Media...

I don't give bad reviews. I just don't go there anymore.

That IS my review.

Considering that nobody expected to be impressed or fooled, I have to wonder what the attendance was at Kennedy when Trump received his hastily arranged "On-the-fly" fake Peace prize to cover up for the humiliation being summarily snubbed by the Nobel Commission.

Apparently, Trump's efforts to self-aggrandize has no end in sight.

Now there's a new challenge, namely, Mr. Quilen Blackwell, a black man, has just received the coveted Hero of the Year Award for devoting his life to doing good deeds.

Tsk, tsk. A President's work is never done. ~ womp, womp.

There was a time, in the not too distant past, when Kennedy Center honors meant something besides being champion ass kissers.
Thank goodness for Tom Hanks.

Another Award ~

As an aside (not related to the Kennedy Center) The Pantone Color Institute has just unveiled its Color of the Year Award and it's not Orange.

Trump has some more work to do.
