"Today, the Kennedy Center Board, filled entirely with Trump appointees, voted
to rename the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts to the
“Trump-Kennedy Center.” A building created to honor a president who was
assassinated while in office, a space that represents America’s national
commitment to the arts, education, and public service, has now been rebranded
in honor of a man who has done more to attack truth, defund cultural
institutions, and divide this nation than anyone in modern history.
Trump’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, shared the following message on X,
the platform formerly known as Twitter:
“I have just been informed that the highly respected Board of the Kennedy
Center, some of the most successful people from all parts of the world, have
just voted unanimously to rename the Kennedy Center to the Trump-Kennedy
Center, because of the unbelievable work President Trump has done over the
last year in saving the building. Not only from the standpoint of its
reconstruction, but also financially, and its reputation. Congratulations to
President Donald J. Trump, and likewise, congratulations to President
Kennedy, because this will be a truly great team long into the future! The
building will no doubt attain new levels of success and grandeur.”
To which Orin Kerr, a Stanford Law professor, responded plainly:
“For those wondering, 20 U.S.C. § 76i states that the building is
‘designated as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.’ § 76k
lists the powers of the Board: soliciting gifts, hiring employees, and
proposing plans for sidewalks. Nothing about, or close to, renaming.”"
