Donald Trump on Friday said in a ranting post on Truth Social Friday that he has fired several board members of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in DC and will take the role of Chairman for himself.
His message also included homophobic insults, baselessly suggesting that the center’s decision to host a recent drag show was somehow related to pedophilia.
In a statement posted Friday night, representatives for the center didn’t push back against Trump’s actions, though they did confirm they are unprecedented. The group also touted its bipartisan history, for whatever that’s worth now, and said it has received “no official communications” regarding any of Trump’s statements.
