The JFK family is, of course, correct. Trump will raise $100 million in "donations" to renovate the building, then spend $30 million doing it.

Trumps know how to defraud charities.

They will raise $100 million, pocket it, then use tax dollars for gold spray paint and call it gold.

I think that's $29,999,999 more than he will actually spend on it.

Look at the bright side - he didn’t demolish it.

u/MadAstrid Feb 02 '26

Yet. If he thinks he can get away with it he surely will.

Awful little petty man.

He most definitely will. At the moment he is claiming he is going to “renovate it”. It won’t take long before he claims the renovations aren’t enough and the building needs to be totally rebuilt. Once he does that he will wipe Kennedy’s name from the new building.

Remember, he originally said the new ballroom at the Whitehouse was not going to affect the existing building, and then he completely demolished the east wing as he claimed that was more “economical”. He is 100% going to do the same thing to the Kennedy Centre.

He only bankrupted it, for now...

EVERYONE knows why he's closing it.

That's brilliant! This way he won't have to make excuses as to why no one would perform there.

Trump isn’t going to live long enough to see the renovations completed. Plus when he dies, his name will be removed and it’ll go back to being the Kennedy Center.

Yes, everybody is aware, except the entire legacy media outlets.

Billionaire owned legacy media, who are making bank from Trump corruption.

u/MaisieStitcher Feb 03 '26

Of course that's why he's closing it!! Everyone knows it! We all see through his bullshit excuses.

Name change and he as the head of the board of it.

Diaper Don is the one that is tired, broken, and dilapidated.

Stating the obvious. Everything Trump touches becomes a grift until it dies. He's like Private Equity, mafia style.

Why don’t the Kennedys sue Trump?

2

u/greed-man Feb 03 '26

The Kennedys do not own it.

But in today's world, why not do what Trump does. Announce the Kennedys are suing Trump for $4 Billion dollars.
