Washington elites are in a rather pumpkin after President Donald Trump made Chairman of the Committee at Kennedy Center And promised to “make it hot.”
In addition, Trump fired the president of Dugo Left -faced Kennedy CenterDeborah Routter, replacing her with the ally Richard Grenell, who will be in charge of returning this former institution in the artistic palace for people.

All real people are not satisfied with this change. The incredibly tone of the New York Times subgroup blinded: “What will a thin skin showman do with an institution that is central to Washington’s cultural life? One expectation more country music.”
Oh no !! Not country music! You can feel sad pity in every word of this.
Yes, the Highlands are at the Kennedy Center door. In fact, they are their own building and thank God, because recently the guidance made the institution except irrelevant to the lives of ordinary people.
This failure is rooted in the fact that instead of focusing on bringing a popular party to the center, except for its symphonies and opera couplings, this broken artistic organization priority priority to Wokeness with dear shows and all other ways of the Dei program.

Kennedy Center, which, by the way, is also a budget budget in the budget last year, is not focused on getting ass in the seats. Like many efforts for unsuccessful arts, it focuses on promoting the social agenda, even if they only repeat it again and again the same liberal elitist audience of Washington.
For too long, American artistic organizations have done more in the lecture than to be raised, more for forcibly than enlightening.
If we want, as we should, Kennedy Center is again a vital and active attraction, part of people’s lives, there are even worse impressoors to turn to than Donald Trump. Say what you are going to do about Trump, but a man can draw a crowd, and honestly, more than anything, that’s what Kennedy Center needs. If he can do for Kennedy Center, which he did for the Presidency, it will be the hottest ticket in the capital.
The purpose of the concert of country music or comic shows or any other event where snoering snobs are watched is to attract and entertain the audience. The Kennedy Center should be a forum that can be fun with Americans who own it.
Trump will not dissolve the National Symphony Orchestra, which preceded the Kennedy Center anyway. They will not force them to play only “Ymca” and “Tiny Dancer”.
But what can be absolutely happening is that among the 5,000 that could see the Lee Greenwood concert in the center, some will see posters for more classic offers and say to themselves, “Hey, that could be cool to check.”

Furthermore, Kennedy Center can be a place where local artists, even if they are not non -profit, even if they do not push the Dei plan, can use spaces and theaters to promote even more local engagement.
For too long, American artistic organizations have done more in the lecture than to be raised, more for forcibly than enlightening. If we are honest, they made more to demoralize than to fun. That must change.
No one can look at the current permanent and livestock state of Kennedy Center and believes that it fulfills its mission as a fundamental cultural center for people. If people will pay for it with their tax dollars, they deserve to be just that.

This makes sense in the world to take the helm of Kennedy Center in the world and Grenell and try to bring it back to relevance. It can truly be not only an artistic gem, but also a place where people from all layers of life gather and think about the wide expanse of our unique culture. The public art space and performance is almost as old as the cities themselves, and in the cultures that succeed these artistic works supplement the politics and science of time. But this only happens if people actually appear.
So, go to Mr. President, make Kennedy Center great again. And save my passage seat.
