The Kennedy Center is in a “financial and structural death spiral.” Those aren’t President Trump’s words. That’s the assessment of DOJ lawyers in a federal court filing Tuesday, explaining what happens to a building Democrats spent years letting deteriorate while fighting any attempt to fix it “because muh Trump.” The filing warned that without a two-year renovation closure, the building will continue deteriorating “into an unsafe, decrepit structure that will be required to be taken down.”
The alternative proposed for the site? A large outdoor amphitheater overlooking the Potomac.
Democrats erupted. Rep. Joyce Beatty — who sued to block the renovation in the first place — called it “a not-so-subtle threat to demolish the Kennedy Center if the President doesn’t get his way.” Her attorney called it “unconscionable.”
