trump has pretty much killed the Kennedy Center

[struth]

Well you're half right. CBS's recent capitulation to tRump has killed their ratings, but as for "sold out"?

Yeah, not so much.

Kennedy Center Claiming “Sold Out” Shows While Giving Away Tickets, Can’t Sell Seats to Christmas Show Even Adding Animals

CBS has been last in ratings for years, and declining…to be fair that’s been true for all the broadcast networks but cbs has routinely been last with Fox leading the ratings by a large margin

That’s reality.

Umm... Who told you that lie?

Fox is cable only, CBS is broadcast. They get 10 million viewers a day. Fox gets something 2 million. Sure, fox is on top for cable news, but the big three are still way out of their league.

Kennedy Center Christmas Eve jazz concert canceled after Trump name added to building​

https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/2025/10/31/kennedy-center-sales/

Recent Cancellations & Reasons:

• Christmas Eve Jazz Concert (Dec 2025): Canceled by host Chuck Redd after the announcement to add Trump's name to the building.
• Kristy Lee Concert (Jan 2026): Folk singer canceled her January show, stating she wouldn't compromise her integrity, reports Syracuse.com.
• Hamilton Tour: The popular musical skipped its planned run, reports The New York Times.
• Eureka Day & Finn Musical: Cancellations of these shows were cited as financial by the Center but followed the leadership change, according to Playbill and BBC News.
• WorldPride Events: Some events were canceled or moved, reports NOTUS.

What now? All Lee Greenwood all the time? Monster truck rallies? Maybe Kid rock can team up with ted Nugent and they can poop their pants in synchronization?

Great news! But the Trump/Kennedy Center will live on, just without all the woke entertainment.

I am actually surprised Kennedys name is still on it and not Pepsi or Target like every other venue these days.

‘A planned Christmas Eve jazz concert at the Kennedy Center, a holiday tradition dating back more than 20 years, has been canceled. The show’s host, musician Chuck Redd, says that he called off the performance in the wake of the White House announcing last week that President Donald Trump’s name would be added to the facility.
[…]
“When I saw the name change on the Kennedy Center website and then hours later on the building, I chose to cancel our concert,” Redd told The Associated Press in an email Wednesday. Redd, a drummer and vibraphone player who has toured with everyone from Dizzy Gillespie to Ray Brown, has been presiding over holiday “Jazz Jams” at the Kennedy Center since 2006, succeeding bassist William “Keter” Betts.’

Everything Trump touches is destroyed.

Trump is trying to drive it into the ground out of contempt for President Kennedy, the same psychotic obsession with President Obama.

Great news! Thanks for posting. It's good to see the wokies all going. Can't happen fast enough.

Jazz should be killed, permanently.
Music for junkies and people too far up their own ass.

It’s music for people who like the hear themselves talk.
It’s more musical when it’s less jazzy.

I wouldn't perform for Trump unless he paid me $1 million dollars. Or whatever my fee was. Or let him use my music for free unless that would benefit me financially.

If I won a Superbowl I'd go to the White House and shake his hand though. And be respectful. I would be one of the quiet guys in the back.

You'd suck a dick for 20 bucks, don't kid yourself.
