According to Bloviator-in-Chief Donald Trump, he felt it necessary to take over as chairman of the board of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts because it has become too “woke.”
Speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One, the convicted felon was asked why he made the Kennedy Center such a priority when the country is facing much larger and more pressing issues.
“I want to make sure it runs properly,” Trump replied.
“We don’t need woke at the Kennedy Center,” he continued. “Some of the shows were terrible, a disgrace that they were even put on. So I’ll be there until such time as it gets to be running right.”
A reporter asked, “Have you seen any shows there? How do you know they are terrible?”
“I didn’t go, no,” Trump admitted.
So how in the hell would he know?!
“I got reports,” he claimed. “They were so bad, I didn’t want to go. I didn’t want to go! There was nothing that I wanted to see.”
Translation: He has no idea what the shows are like at the Kennedy Center, but he needs something to keep his moronic base of supporters happy and distract them from the fact that he hasn’t lowered the price on anything and is actually raising prices across the board with his tariffs on goods imported from China. According to economists, those tariffs are passed along to consumers and will likely result in a recession around the middle of the year.
Tariffs almost always lead to decreased exports from the United States, along with higher prices. That will probably lead to a downturn in the stock market and could even result in job losses in sectors where the tariffs will have the biggest impact, such as technology, food, and other consumer goods such as clothing and building supplies.
The fact that Trump admits he has no idea what shows are taking place at the Kennedy Center drew laughs and derision online.
