Such snowflakes

3. They extend "well wishes"? WTF?

[madaboutharry]

2. He isn't a president.

And Melania is the invisible First Lady.

They are total failures at their jobs. Both of them.

[Dulcinea]

18. She never wanted the job.

She married him expecting to be a rich trophy wife.

[Guilded Lilly]

4. Since there is nothing honorable about the Cretin, the celebration...

Is better off without the sociopath in attendance.

5. Radioactive

They are radioactive.

[malaise]

6. I wouldn't trust him

Fugg 'em!

7. The Kennedy Center released a statement, they are relieved

[ATL Ebony]

19. Thought you were joking but I just heard on news that they sent a reply expressing

their gratitude for his absence from the event. WOW

[spanone]

8. Because they don't give two shits about the arts...

[Zoonart]

9. HAHAHAHAHAHAHa...

Doesn't want to be booed in public on national television. He can't appear anywhere in the US unless it's with a crowd of knuckle dragging nazi freaks.

17. "Doesn't want to be booed in public ..."

That too was my first thought.

[blogslut]

10. Good

Just by being there those two demean the honorees.

[Stinky The Clown]

11. Hahahahahaha!

Doesn't want to be booed like Obama was.

Oh wait . . . . uh . . . . never mind.

[yallerdawg]

12. More confirmation from him...

that he is not OUR president - and never will be.

[HipChick]

13. There were a lot of folks quitting from the events anyway...there's a pattern here

He does not like rejection...

[osaMABUSh]

14. That's great news for this years honorees

In rewatching previous Kennedy Center with Obama I couldn't help but think what a bummer if you were honored this year and had to sit through this with Dump in attendance. Take a look at Led Zeppelin and the tribute to Stairway by Heart, Jason Bonham and a choir. A remarkable moment plus the shots of Barack and Michelle jamming and Robert Plant near tears. Now imagine if Two Scoops was there with stiff Melania - what a buzz kill. Also check out the photo of Obama hanging out with Led Zeppelin at the reception. Truly a sight of mutual admiration.

15. He's ticked about being snubbed. Maybe the decliners will attend now!

[Thrill]

16. Worst President EVER
