Thousands of people joined outside the Kennedy Center on Friday to protest President Donald Trump's plans for the facility, lending their voices to a chorus of organizations and individuals who have been horrified that he might close and tear down the storied institution. https://t.co/p0sBSWiVGi

Can you imagine if President Obama had said he was going to change the name of the Kennedy Center to his name and if it doesn't happen he will demolish it?

Can you imagine the insanity that would transpire from Republicans?

WTF are we doing?

We gotta rally and stop this BS now

[Brad @BraddrofliT]

The Kennedy Memorial is made of irreplaceable marble that was gifted by Italy.

Matisse tapestries found throughout were gifted from France.

The massive starburst chandelier in the Opera Hall, and lights along walkways, were a gift from Sweden.

The record-breaking stage curtains were a gift from Japan. They had to build special looms to weave them because of how big they are.

The grounds are beautiful with displays of art.

This is what Trump is destroying.

[TheFrenchie @ML3democrats]

The Kennedy Center was financially stable for 55 years. One year of Trump as chairman of the board, and it’s facing bankruptcy.

If that doesn’t feel like a metaphor for what’s happening to this country, I don’t know what does.

Trump is the worst person alive. Do you agree?

[Jeff Mason @jeffmason1]

“Hands off,” the crowd chants, protesting @realDonaldTrump’s plans for the Kennedy Center.

[Mona Burns @Monaheart1229]

The crowd that showed up for the 'Hands Around The Kennedy Center' protest yesterday👇
Absolutely spectacular
THIS is how it's done, kids ..
And I suspect we'll be doing a lot more of this in the next 2 years
Are you ready?

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

The Kennedy Center was financially stable until Trump took over: "In the fiscal year ending in 2024, when the center was led by President Deborah Rutter and a bipartisan board of trustees, it brought in about $40 million more than it spent"

More people showed up at the rally to protect the Kennedy Center than at jd vance's rally in Iowa today.

At the White House in October 1963, six weeks before his assassination, JFK and a model of the National Cultural Center, later renamed the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts:

"In every country in which there has been a loss of freedom, where does it begin? It begins in news media, in public print, in books, and on the proscenium. That's where they attack you first right there. That's the bread basket." —Rod Serling
