Following Donald Trump's controversial rebranding of the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., the annual Kennedy Center Honors will also be renamed by the president's hand-picked board of trustees.

The annual awards ceremony will now be known as the Trump Kennedy Center Honors and will be moving to a smaller venue next year as the historic building undergoes a renovation spearheaded by the president. The venue, newly named The Donald Trump and The John F. Kennedy Center Memorial for the Performing Arts, will be closed down for a $200 million makeover as of July 4, 2026.

Last year, the Kennedy Center Honors saw the lowest ratings in the show's history, which honored Trump's hand-selected nominees: Kiss, Sylvester Stallone, Gloria Gaynor, George Strait, and Michael Crawford.

Richard Grenell, the president of the Trump-Kennedy Center project, confirmed in an interview with D.C. news station WTO that the ceremony "will definitely go forward" as The Trump Kennedy Center Honors, though it will most likely be held "in a smaller venue," which he says means "ticket demand will be even higher."

48th Kennedy Center Honors

1. When the next sane President comes in....................

The Kennedy Center will be restored along with the WH and other vile re-changing that shithole did.

shithole is evil.

[Whip-poor-will]

2. The little child rapist

Though he may have had his fill of little girls this is just another form of rape like Iran, little girls, our judges, little girls, our education department, little girls, who knows who or what is next but he ain't done raping yet

[Lonestarblue]

3. I doubt he's had his fill of little girls. He's just too old and senile to do anything about it.

[Botany]

4. It is not the Trump Kennedy Center. It is the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center.

It was never Trump’s or under his authority to allow him to rename it. If America survives every
thing in D.C. that he had his name put on will need to have his name removed from and the East
Wing of the White House will need to be rebuilt and all his tacky shit will need to removed too.

However I am dubious about the Republicans relinquishing power after the elections because now
they own something like 80% of the voting apparatus in America with E.S.&S. and Dominion Voting
Systems, they own so much of the media, and Trump has his head busting goons with HHS and ICE
many of whom were J-6th shits, part of the over 150,000 bad cops who he had their Federal Records
expunged, Proud Boys, Patriot Front racist shits, and they own the courts too.

Hillary and Kamala did not lose because of their sex or Kamala’s race they lost because of massive
cheating in the form of “under voting” where people showed up to vote but skipped voting for President
the same under voting can be seen In Ohio’s 2022 & 2024 senate races, post office scams, ballot
rejections for signature matches, voter registration suppression by right wing operatives, and bogus
charges that removed people from voting.


The renaming of the Kennedy Center and the destruction of the White House are Stephen Miller’s tests
to see just how much shit he and Trump can get away with.

5. Renamed to "The Donald Trump Trauma Honors?" I like it.

6. I noticed a video YouTube recommended for me was from the Trump Kennedy Center channel.

It gave me great satisfaction to choose Do Not Recommend Channel.

[Bayard]

7. Gag

The ego and disrespect continues to run amok. Self-serving chaos at home and abroad.

[ificandream]

8. He just wants to do as much damage as he can to the office of the President so his crap can't be reversed soon

That's his game ... to keep his evil name on the presidency. In other words, we're stuck with reminders of him until it all gets reversed. And it's likely it won't be in any of our lifetimes.

[Owl]

9. Sad that Michael Crawford was part of that

[GenThePerservering]

10. "Ticket demand even higher?"

They didn't exactly pack the place out before!

[twodogsbarking]

11. Someday he will die and we can all live again. Eh men.

[Torchlight]

12. He's probably choreographing a burlesque show for the new digs

even as the world burns.

[mdbl]

13. Does anyone give a shit about the Kennedy Center any more?

I won't give it a second look until after mature adults versed in the arts are put back in charge of it, if ever. I don't hold high hopes that this country will straighten out in my lifetime. Too many F'ing weirdos.

[pfitz59]

14. Should be the 'Dishonors'

because that's what it is
