It took about two days for the Kennedy Center to fall unconditionally to Trump. He is chairman, and the board is now defiled by tobacco lobbyist Susie Wiles, VP enabler Usha Vance, et.al. The cowardly KC brass have allowed Trump not only to pillage their institution, but to gain credibility in the process–even at the complete cost of their own. Not an iota of resistance. And no more bipartisanship on the board. It’s all Trumpists, none of them remotely qualified to do anything else but destroy another American institution.
