Trump Begins Renovation of Kennedy Center by Removing Audience


WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump announced on Monday that he had successfully completed the first phase of the Kennedy Center’s renovation by removing its audience.

Arguing that a building cannot undergo construction while people are still in it, Trump revealed that he had spent the past year ensuring that no one would set foot inside the performing arts center for the foreseeable future.

He achieved that goal with blazing efficiency by putting his name on the building, naming himself chairman, and alienating any performing artist one might conceivably pay to see.

Additionally, audiences have steered clear of the Kennedy Center out of fear that they might be seated next to JD Vance.

In a Truth Social post, Trump boasted, “For the past 54 years, the Kennedy Center has been plagued by audiences. I was able to fix that problem in just twelve months!”

The actual news item.

Trump announces two-year closure of Trump Kennedy Center for major renovations

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the complex will close on July 4, coinciding with the nation’s 250th anniversary, at which point construction will begin on what he described as a "new and spectacular entertainment complex."

So, who is taking bets that, when the renovation is done, the Kennedy name, and the bust in the lobby, will be gone. It will become the "Trump Center", with a huge, golden, statue, of Trump the God?

I keep wondering where this monstrosity will be built? Only place I can see "in front of the White House" is the Ellipse.

President Trump reveals plan to build 100,000-seat stadium for UFC White House event

Trump didn’t offer any additional details about the proposed structure, but with less than five months before the UFC White House card unfolds construction may need to start soon.

President Donald Trump in a post on X on January 31: “Last night I saw, “MELANIA,” for the second time. The audience loved it, and so do I. Check it out—A MUST SEE!”

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, in a post on X on January 25, viewed 1.4 million times: “Today DHS assassinated a VA nurse in the street, Bondi is attempting to extort voter files, and half the country is bracing on the eve of a potentially crippling ice storm with FEMA gutted. So what is the President up to? Having a movie night at the White House. He’s unfit.”

The account Republicans Against Trump, in a post on X viewed over 200,000 times,“I’d rather rewatch January 6th.”

He said he wants to convert natural resources into money. Expect national parks to be clear cut, then the land strip mined.

He's nearly 80 years old. He doesn't care what the country looks like in 20 years. As most "JCs", he only wants to make his stack bigger now.
