At least they have the option to boycott a renovated facility.

So it's ok to rename sports teams and tear down statues of historical figures but it Trump renames something it's not ok.

Got it.

If they exist, would love to see the emails

Two more boycotted yesterday.
quote:

A veteran jazz ensemble and a New York dance company have canceled events at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, intensifying the fallout at one of the nation’s pre-eminent arts centers after it was renamed to include President Trump.

The center had previously promoted two New Year’s Eve performances by the Cookers as an “all-star jazz septet that will ignite the Terrace Theater stage with fire and soul.” But those performances, like an annual Christmas Eve jazz concert hosted by Chuck Redd, are now canceled.

The Cookers did not give a reason for the decision in a statement on Monday that said, “Jazz was born from struggle and from a relentless insistence on freedom: freedom of thought, of expression, and of the full human voice.”

Sad thing is, it’s completely believable & not shocking that the legacy media would do it.

Has the legacy media refuted the claims?

I don't think the people are going to take kindly to what he's alluding to when it eventually goes public.

You really can't hate the leftist media enough.
They pressure groups to boycott and then write articles "more groups are boycotting."

The Luciferian Cult is absolutely ENRAGED that Trump took that building away from them, gave it back to the good Kennedy's, and then stamped his fracking name on it.

They are literally FOAMING AT THE MOUTH about it.

You have to understand. 10 years ago they were laughing at this guy.

They were gonna utterly freaking destroy him AND HIS FAMILY for even attempting to go after them.

10 years later?

When they're not absolutely foaming at the mouth in rage over what he's doing to them, they're TERRIFIED of him.

The public continues to wake up. The Great Awakening cannot be stopped

That is a shame.

Performing at the Kennedy Center is an honor, even if Trump managed to graft his name onto the building.

Sounds like he should be playing at the Trump Kennedy Center then.

But I follow jazz and this guy is a minor player.

Soft looking white guy.

LOL

So what freedoms are the losing?

Oh that's right. None. Why? Because this isn't the Jim Crow era any longer where Democrats were making sure they suffered for simply existing. Now these same Democrats are encouraging this. Oh the irony is ironing.

Trump should start booking Big and Rich, Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and the myriad of other MAGA artists on a rotating basis in the TKC.
