Cancel all the contracts and shut it down for the next 4 years.
Oh yeah, some judge would say that would cause “irreparable” harm to someone somewhere.

Don’t these people ever get tired of meaningless gestures?

They are actors and leftists. Their entire existence are meaningless gestures.

They are only hurting the workers that work at the Kennedy Center. The once prestigious Kennedy Center according to RS. These people are nothing more than spoiled children with no respect for anyone.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is a contagious virus that needs a vaccine, lock downs, masks, the six foot rule and termination of job for those who refuse the vaccine. The survival of America is at stake.
