* More members of the Kennedy family have spoken out after President Donald Trump added his name to the Kennedy Center on Dec. 19, including JFK’s niece Kerry Kennedy, who says she plans to rip Trump’s name off the historic venue with a pickax.
* “Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder,” she wrote. “Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!”
* Her cousin Maria Shriver also fired back at Trump, saying, “Adding your name to a memorial already named in honor of a great man doesn’t make you a great man.”

Trump has received bad health news so he’s accelerating all the Trump branding before he collapses. No other reason for moving forward at this pace while accumulating bad polls for the GOP.

Only on planet earth would the Kennedy Center go from ‘a memorial to a president’ toTrump brand extension faster than a Marvel post-credits scene. Also big LOL at the idea pof a pickax power hour in 2028. Really leaning into Home Improvement Presidential edition energy here.

Officially he didn’t add his name because it would take an act of Congress. They’ll let him put his name on the building but as soon as the administration changes to someone without loyalty to Trump, the name change will be treated as if it never happened.

Probably easier to shoot the letters off with a Carcano.

Why wait? You’ll get arrested but talking like this is going to get you arrested as a dissident before 3 years pass anyways.
She has the profile and money to not get entirely disappeared like most people.

Move all those letters to a public bathroom, let’s see if we can get “I gotta take a Trump.” to catch on.

My prediction is that a decade after Trump’s death, only a few buildings will be left with his name. The half of people that dislike him will never give business to a Trump branded business. And the half that like him now will have moved on to worship someone else.
I even think that where his descendants used to want his name, that some will opt for their spouses name or just change their name unilaterally.

It should definitely be a Kennedy family member who removes Trump’s name. I’ll be happy to hold the ladder

Why do we keep treating any of these Kennedys like they are political royalty?? We supposedly hate monarchs… but eagerly yoke our fates to family dynasties with little thought. Meritocracy my ass.

The people installing the letters will probably be the first to rip them down for non-payment.

The mayor of DC should have it removed. It is against the law. Let Trump try and sue.
Make DC a state so the president can’t mess with it.

Take everything this fuckface has done, the plaques, the drug card, the gold cards, the self portraits, the demeaning expresident pictures, the building titles. Make a big pile on the White House lawn. Let anyone take a piss or drop the animal feces on it. Throw a massive picture of him with no makeup on top, and burn that garbage for all to see.
Then rename the ballroom after Obama or someone else.

When he finally does leave I feel like there is going to be a big burning party.

Is anyone else surprised that the Kennedys are less Camelot and more Clampetts?

Trump won’t desecrate JFK’s grave, just his Memorial.
