The Kennedy Center had until June 12 at midnight to strip the president’s name from the building, but construction crews in hard hats and neon green high-vis vests only started to assemble scaffolding to reach the letters that afternoon.
That midnight deadline came and went without any letters removed from the building.
Cooper and a panel of appeals court judges denied the administration’s 11th-hour attempts to keep Trump’s name on the facade, and workers began adding a tarp to the towering scaffolding shortly after 1 a.m…
Workers eventually began removing letters at 3 a.m. June 13.
But the scaffolding and tarp are still in place.
I think his staffers never told him about the court ruling, and instead they’ve told him they are replacing all the dull lettering with ‘classy’ gold lettering. And now they don’t know how to tell him the truth. So they are stalling by leaving the tarps up there.
“I’m sorry, sir. It seems we’ve used all the gold in the world on your Trump Mobile phones. That isn’t a bad thing. The phones were biggly successful. Everyone has one. Putin has two. But, we’re going to have to use a new, even more expensive metal for your name. It’s call invisbium. Only the most powerful people in the world can even see it. I can’t see it. I’m sure you can, though, sir.”
Ooh, Trump wants to be greater than an emperor with snazzy clothes?
Let’s create a custom metal for him called Trumpium, that just happens to be VERY expensive to make, super lightweight, and totally invisible to anyone loyal to him.
