Why does djt appear to be on a Kennedy revenge tour?

[allegorical oracle]

From tearing up the Rose Garden, to shuttering the Kennedy Center, to redecorating the WH, to yearning to build a 25-story arch that obscures the Arlington Cemetery view of the Lincoln Memorial -- to tapping RFK Jr to serve in his Cabinet when he knew the family would be seriously annoyed...

Cases in point:

--John F. Kennedy Eternal Flame

The John F. Kennedy Eternal Flame is a presidential memorial at the gravesite of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, in Arlington National Cemetery. The gravesite is aligned with the Lincoln Memorial across the Memorial Bridge.

-- How Donald Trump Conquered the Kennedy Center Just to Shutter It

By Philip Elliot

President Donald Trump last year successfully wrestled control of the U.S. Capital’s dominant performing arts stage with unheard-of efficiency. He ousted its leader, installed a loyalist at the helm, made himself the chairman of its reconstituted board, scrambled its programming calendar, alienated cultural leaders, exiled its resident opera company, declared himself the emcee of its biggest fundraising gala, and treated it like an annex of the White House for events that very often featured him in a central role.

--Trump's War on John and Jackie Kennedy

Donald Trump never promised us a Rose Garden. Nor did he warn us that in his first 100 days, he would rip up the storied Jacqueline Kennedy Garden outside the White House’s West Wing and pave much of it for dancing, making it a glorified patio like the Mar-a-Lago one where he holds court. Nor did he divulge his intentions to force himself on the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. He muted his obsession with painting over the robin’s egg blue color scheme on Air Force One that the Kennedys had given the presidential plane, and that no commander-in-chief since has considered removing, what with its echoes of blue skies and Tiffany’s boxes.

1. He's just a little man

Obama and Kennedy were very intelligent .....something trump can never be ever.

Stupid people are jealous of brilliant minded people.

Besides neither one of them knew and loved Epstein

2. Anyone the American people love, respect, admire must be destroyed.

It is an attempt to destroy the iconic American heroes and values.
To destroy the character of our nation.

And Trump wants to be the only icon in the country.

[karynnj]

7. This might be it, he is attacking US by destroying things that

are meaningful to us and classically beautiful.

He is replacing them with garish, in your face alternatives. A paved patio at a golf club is fine, but putting one outside the White House takes away from the understated classical elegance.

Destroying the Kennedy Center takes away from the people of DC, Washington and Maryland. Putting a GIGANTIC arch between Arlington Cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial takes away a beautiful meaningful view.

That he is now thinking of building a wrestling stadium on White House grounds shows further lack of respect for our capitol. Why not build it at or adjacent to Mar a logo?

I was surprised at the depth of my reaction to seeing the East Wing in destruction. It wasn't 911 in terms of live and death, but it was something meaningful that was unexpectedly destroyed.

I never expected to see GIANT pictures of the President hanking on US building. I wish a reporter would ask him if he is putting all his pictures, names and change of style now because he knows it would NEVER be done as a memorial for him when he died.

8. Yes the beauty, majesty, elegance of the US capital must be destroyed.

And replaced with Mar A Lago hooker and drug culture icons.
To further humiliate and degrade our country.

It is all deliberate.

[johnnyfins]

3. Oh he'll be an icon alright. Just not the kind that

he wants or thinks.

[Hey Joe]

10. Oh he's an icon alright.

As in “ I con my MAGAbillies and they believe
everything I say!”

[magicarpet]

4. Trashing Jacqueline Kennedy's softer powder blue paint design on Air Force One so it now has the red, white, and,..

... darker navy blue so it matches the color scheme of trDUMPee's private jet.

This hatred of al! things Kennedy is based on djt's jealousy and resentment that the Age of Camelot shined so brightly against trDUMPee's Age of the Backed Up Sewage Treatment Plant.

Akin to his hatred of all things Obama.

[NoMoreRepugs]

5. Factual history will be very unkind to the ShitGibbon.

[spanone]

6. Because Kennedy was the man trmp will never be.

[greatauntoftriplets]

9. The Kennedys (excepting Bobby Jr.) have the class that drumpf will never have.

[RandomNumbers]

11. Even RFK Jr. is more man than TSF will ever be.

While RFK Jr. is part of the problem now, his story is legitimately tragic and there are signs that he started down his paths for good reasons. Possibly there was always corruption there? Drug abuse? Other underlying bad impulses? But his father was assassinated. Then layer on the heroin and god knows what else.

I may be crazy but I think he genuinely believes the vaccine-autism thing and a lot of other stuff he spews. He started out involved with Riverkeeper which is a noble cause. Perhaps between the drugs and the realization of how bad we are fucking over the natural environment, he just snapped. Now he has gone down ridiculous paths in such a counter-productive way ... it's very unfortunate. (and I do think he lost his overall moral compass somewhere along the way. Sigh.)

In contrast, Trump is just a grifting con-man pedophile who was raised from the cradle to be at least the first two of those.

[Blue Owl]

12. I can't believe enough enablers are letting the fat fuck psychopath pedophile get away with it

The Kennedy family has always been respected by all Americans until tRump came along. Even my right-wing family never spoke ill of the Kennedys and were horrified by JFK’s assassination.
