Donny, are you ok?

[GoCubsGo]

Okay, Donny, we'll go with Enten's numbers.

Surprising no one that actually remembers his first term.

It's fucking mind boggling that he was elected, even with the racist, misogynistic, lazy and ignorant portion of the electorate.

Six months in and all the swing states have flipped and a couple of states like Ohio are at 50%.

Buyers remorse gone wild, surprising no one that paid attention.

... The WNBA has condemned the object-throwing incidents as dangerous and misogynistic, instituting bans and arrests for offenders.

I'd add in stupid, childish and oddly obsessed with male genitalia. Hmm. Junior just gave permission to many more idiot copycats.

Let's hope it translates to the midterms.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Whitehouse is being turned into a garish bordello.



LOL

He's never gonna see them again.

Formerly displayed in an entryway where thousands of visitors were able to see it, the portrait by artist Robert McCurdy is now located at the top of the Grand staircase, a heavily restricted area only accessed by members of the first family, Secret Service agents and a select few of the White House residence staff. Trump also moved the portraits of former President George W. Bush and his late father, former President George H.W. Bush, to the staircase area.

[supesalemgr2]

I am sorry this is an issue. You will get over it.

Yeah, this is real.

GREAT Nominees for the TRUMP/KENNEDY CENTER, whoops, I mean, KENNEDY CENTER, AWARDS. They will be announced Wednesday. Tremendous work is being done, and money being spent, on bringing it back to the absolute TOP LEVEL of luxury, glamour, and entertainment. It had fallen on hard times, physically, BUT WILL SOON BE MAKING A MAJOR COMEBACK!!! President DJT

Like DC this week, the KENNEDY CENTER had not "fallen on hard times" until Dementia Donny took over.

Is he really going to rename it the TRUMP/KENNEDY CENTER?


I predict routine Kennedy Center Awards, AND some undeserving MAGAts. Stay tuned later today.

Sylvester Stallone, C'MON DOWN!

I'm mostly not a fan and he is a MAGAt, but I can't deny his "lifetime of contributions to American culture." Both "Rocky" and "Rambo" are touchstones that need no further elaboration. I won't be bothered if he gets a Kennedy Center Honor.

Trump names Strait, Stallone and Kiss for Kennedy Center Honors and says he'll host the awards show

President Donald Trump on Wednesday named country music star George Strait, “Rocky” actor Sylvester Stallone, singer Gloria Gaynor, the rock band Kiss and actor-singer Michael Crawford among the first batch of Kennedy Center Honors nominees under his leadership as the center’s chairman and said he’ll host the awards program.

George Strait - Wiki doesn't discuss his politics. He's been generous with time and money for wounded veterans. I've heard his name for decades, but don't know country music well enough to say if he's deserving.

Gloria Gaynor - Wiki doesn't discuss her politics. I was not a disco fan, though I came to appreciate some of the music years later.

Kiss (band) - Never a favorite of mine, but they were HUGE. Deserving.
Paul Stanley - Wiki doesn't discuss his politics.
Gene Simmons - Zionist and Islamophobe. Supported Shrub's foreign policy. Voted for Obama in 2008, regretted it, endorsed Mitten in 2012.

In an August 2021 interview, regarding the honesty of Donald Trump and his presidential administration, Simmons said, "[W]e all lie to some extent, but what happened the last four years was beyond anything I ever thought imaginable from people who had lots of power — not just him, but the administration, everybody."

On November 10, 2021, he stated that people who refused to get the COVID-19 vaccine are "an enemy" and called them "evil".

Ace Frehley - Wiki doesn't discuss his politics.
Peter Criss - Wiki doesn't discuss his politics.
Tommy Thayer - Wiki doesn't discuss his politics.
Eric Singer - Wiki doesn't discuss his politics.
I'm not bothering to look up the other band members.

Michael Crawford - Lots of awards. Deserving? Wiki doesn't discuss his politics.

Back to the article:

... Trump, who had indicated he wanted a more active role in the selection process, said he was “about 98% involved” in choosing the honorees. He said he “turned down plenty” of names, saying those individuals were “too woke,” or too liberal. He described the artists he announced on Wednesday, including several of his favorites, as “great people.”

... In 2017, after honoree Norman Lear declared he wouldn't attend a White House celebration in protest of Trump’s proposed cuts to federal arts funding, Trump and first lady Melania Trump decided to skip the Kennedy Center event and remained away throughout his first term. Honorees during that time included such Trump critics as Cher, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Sally Field....

and all deserving.

Maybe the honors will be more MAGA next year. Could be that DonOLD's influence will be mostly in who does not get honored.

[supesalemgr2]

A benign group and seems worthy.

[neoplacebo]

I'm shocked that he didn't nominate The Village People for their masterpiece "YMCA".

[GoCubsGo]

and all deserving.

Is he gonna do a little stand up routine?

Trump hosting the Kennedy Center Honors will be like watching a crappy variety show from the 1970s

[O Really]

Will Trump actually honor Gloria Gaynor for her contribution to gay pride?

"I Will Survive," by Gloria Gaynor, is widely recognized as a gay anthem due to its powerful message of resilience and survival, resonating deeply with the LGBTQ+ community. The song's themes of overcoming adversity and finding strength after heartbreak have made it a staple at Pride events and a source of empowerment for many, especially during the AIDS crisis.
Here's why "I Will Survive" is considered a gay anthem:
Themes of resilience and survival:
The lyrics, while not explicitly about sexual orientation, speak to the experience of overcoming hardship and finding strength, which resonated with LGBTQ+ individuals facing discrimination and societal challenges.
Embraced during the AIDS crisis:
The song gained prominence during the 1980s, a time when the LGBTQ+ community was grappling with the devastating AIDS epidemic. It became a source of comfort, hope, and solidarity for those experiencing loss and fear.
Ubiquitous at Pride events:
"I Will Survive" is a staple at Pride celebrations worldwide, a testament to its enduring popularity and its significance as an anthem of LGBTQ+ pride and resilience.
Cultural and historical significance:
The Library of Congress recognized the song's cultural, historical, and artistic significance by adding it to the National Recording Registry in 2016.
Drag performances:
The song is a favorite among drag performers, who often incorporate it into their acts, further cementing its status as a gay anthem.
In essence, "I Will Survive" transcends its initial purpose as a disco hit to become a powerful symbol of LGBTQ+ identity, resilience, and the ongoing fight for equality

Much like the Village People, he's unaware.

Oh, I could have a bunch of light-hearted fun with that sentence. Who's unaware, Trump or the Village People? And the unaware village people are the ones who voted him into office? And how many of those people are idiots?

But:

There has been no confirmation that such a proposal is on the table, and Newsweek has contacted the White House and the office of Alaska's governor for comment. The Telegraph cited a White House statement that it did not comment "on deliberative conversations that may or may not be happening."

Hard to tell these days
