Until now, the President has always attended
the Kennedy Center Honors, where the best among us have been honored for their contributions to the betterment of our lives. But not this year.
On Tuesday night CBS will air the Kennedy Center Honors, and President Trump will not be on the screen, because he declined to attend the event when it was held on Dec. 3 in Washington. What does it mean that Mr. Trump didn’t have the nerve, for a single night, to be in a room with artists who have criticized him?
The honoring of artists is a bipartisan ritual. The Kennedy Center was a place where the left and the right could agree that the arts occupy a central place in our culture, worthy of our attention and respect.
But not this year.
The vain, arrogant, unqualified Liar in Chief is too petty to share the spotlight with those who are FAR MORE talented, because some of them don't share his political views.
What an ass, but nothing hew here....
