"Trump will host the Kennedy Center honors" obviously won't be the worst news today but it sure does exemplify some of the worst things going on: the narcissism, the North Korea-style Great Leaderism, the drive to subjugate institutions, the cultural degradation, etc.

If anyone intends to attend this , wear a mask

good lord

not only did Trump assign himself the presenter role, but he seems to have selected the awardees as well
like the Presidential Medal of Freedom, he's effectively killed the honor

🤮

To hell with anyone who performs for this travesty.

Once again, the rapacious Pedo with the mushroom penis forces himself into something without permission or an invitation.

Ugh...all of US are not impressed with #DonOldRump. Yawn.

Boom 💥

Omg. I might just watch it to see him embarrass himself.

It’s obscene. I mean, it’s all obscene, but it’s obscene.

He also chose the honorees.
-
It’s ok. No one will be there.
-
It's one of those "small" details that speaks volumes about where our country is right now - because there are so many historical precedents
-
Don't forget, he's also going to "renovate and decorate" it. Moar pimped out gold paint and cherubs.

Let's look back on better days and...sigh. For what we have lost. In 2015, Carole King was an honoree, and this was a number in the show that brought a tear to President Obama's eyes.

Aw nuts! Why couldn't he have carried on his own great tradition of being the only President to have nothing to do with it. From the Wikipedia page:

And what a flaming garbage fire that will be. The honors ceremony equivalent of a septic tank explosion.

JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY was personally flawed in ways that have been publicized to dust, but he had class, intelligence, and unparalleled political and leadership skills. The loathsome Benedict Donald isn't worthy of being named in the same breath with him.

😢😢

Have to wonder, whomever is telecasting the awards, are they gonna do it a second time? After the first time gets the ABYSMAL ratings we all 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 it’s gonna get.

Trump announces Kennedy Center Honors and says that he chose them because of their talent and because they are not "woke".
He got several other proposals, but refused them because they were "woke".
Meaning: you do not get a cultural award if you are not MAGA-ish.
Disgusting.

I am sure it’s likely to get prime time gala coverage, too…

Just change the name to Epstein Center already, Cheeto. Have pageants there.

If nothing else, it underscores just how much Trump craves affirmation from the "elites" he claims to hate. See also: New York Times; Nobel Committee.
He's a bottomless well of neediness.

The Hitler’s Museum – originally in German called Das Führermuseum, was luckily an unrealized art museum within a cultural complex planned by Adolf Hitler for his hometown, the Austrian city of Linz.

Will he bus in attendees? #watchCraigslist
-
He loves attention and applause. Every media outlet should decline to air the show.
-
The narcissism is off the charts!
-
He didn’t even attend during his first term.
-
Not sure he got the memo but his need to stamp his style of conservative culture on all these institutions won't hold and won't last. He is a demented old man for thinking otherwise. Maybe he should try his actual job as President. There is a novel idea.
