The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, has recently appointed President Donald Trump as the chair of the board. This decision was made by the newly-constituted board, as confirmed by sources familiar with the matter.
In a statement on Truth Social, Trump expressed his gratitude for being chosen as the Chairman of The Kennedy Center. He emphasized the honor of working with the distinguished Board of Trustees and pledged to enhance the center's offerings, making it a remarkable and vibrant cultural hub.
Following his appointment as chairman, Trump wasted no time in taking action.
