Richard Grenell, the Trump-appointed president of the Kennedy Center, strongly criticized the potential boycott and suggested publicly identifying participating actors. The President’s date night with the First Lady raised an impressive $10 million for the cultural center, demonstrating strong support despite subscription sales dropping following liberal backlash to Trump’s management changes.
Patriots Cheer While Protesters Fall Flat
As the President and First Lady arrived at the Kennedy Center, patriotic supporters erupted in enthusiastic chants of “USA! USA!” throughout the venue. The mixed audience reaction highlighted the cultural divide in America, with some liberal attendees attempting to protest while Trump supporters celebrated the President’s commitment to preserving American cultural institutions.
Trump has attended “Les Misérables” multiple times, showing his appreciation for traditional cultural performances rather than the progressive programming favored by the previous administration. Vice President JD Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance joined the President for the special evening, underscoring the administration’s unified commitment to American cultural heritage.
The President’s reshaping of the Kennedy Center board reflects his commitment to removing leftist influence from American institutions. Trump has been vocal about his criticism of the former board for allowing drag shows and other controversial performances that many conservative Americans found objectionable and inappropriate for a national cultural center.
Trump Maintains Focus on National Priorities
While enjoying a cultural evening, President Trump remains actively engaged in addressing the anti-ICE protests erupting across the nation, particularly in Los Angeles. The President has taken decisive action by deploying military forces to restore order, attributing the unrest to “radical left lunatics” attempting to undermine America’s immigration enforcement.
“There’s no inflation. People are happy. People are wealthy. The country is returning to strength again,” President Trump stated, highlighting his administration’s economic achievements despite liberal opposition.
