    You would thing this guy hates colorful people or something. I swear there was some other guy that made a major push to pin all his country’s issues on some minority group while he consolidated power over media, arts, and what not.

    How do you suppose they redesign the flag, just replace all the stars with little swastikas or what?

    So the self-appointed arbiter of American culture stumbles into another vanity project, replacing seasoned trustees with his golden-framed portrait. Drag shows for youth suddenly eclipse actual issues—because nothing unites a crumbling democracy like pearl-clutching over sequins and lip-syncing. The Kennedy Center’s new “vision” boils down to erasing anything that doesn’t smell like 1950s nostalgia and rebranding nepotism as patriotism.

    Artistic merit now hinges on loyalty oaths. Meanwhile, actual policy disasters get a standing ovation. But sure, let’s pretend this isn’t a textbook narcissist playbook—appointing oneself chairman of anything is just dictator-lite cosplay. The “Golden Age” he’s selling? More like gilded decay.

    Well, he is a primadonna. Maybe he just wants to fulfill a lifelong dream to dance on stage dressed in a tutu…

    Biden wasn’t able to fire a simple postmaster, but somehow Trump found out he had the power to fire the board at the Kennedy center?
