Kennedy Center Pauses Trump Naming Push | Annapolis News

Published 5 days, 11 hours ago
Description

The Kennedy Center is delaying its plan to slap Donald Trump’s name everywhere — from the facade to the plaza — until at least October 8th, as a federal judge probes whether the move violates the law, especially after previously ordering the name removed. Trump’s own board, which he chairs, wants to credit him for renovations and rename the grounds “President Donald J. Trump Plaza,” but faces legal and political pushback. The Justice Department warns the center could be demolished without urgent repairs, arguing that not crediting Trump might scare off donors. Meanwhile, critics including a congresswoman argue only Congress can approve such naming, while the center’s spokesperson blames past mismanagement and claims Trump’s branding has attracted new funding.
