- Reposted by Gabrielle Hecht 🇵🇷 • she/elle/ellaThe orange felon says he’s going to close The Kennedy Center for two years to destroy someone’s memorial with tacky updates. Yet another disgraceful action taken by a vindictive jealous criminal who’s angry about people refusing to perform there after he trashed it up. I hate him.
