Lawyers fighting to keep the president’s name off the building say the venue is waging ‘a petty act of defiance’ that is ‘willfully sabotaging’ the facade to appeal to Trump’s ego
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.
