(197,190 posts)Early in his second term, Trump remade the Kennedy Center board and appointed himself board chair. He criticized the institutions previous programming as out of control, arguing it showcased performances with rampant political propaganda.

The Irish are a proud people.
Humiliation and degradation are torture.
To take one of America's most respected icons and wipe it all out.
Painful.

Just another right-wing hustler who used his street smarts for money and connections to make more money.

Women are not to be in leadership. Thats not how that system works. They arent supposed to be in the picture at all.
