Trump pledges to withdraw from Kennedy Center after court strikes his name - Caribbean Financials – Finance, Business, Trade & Investment News
US President Donald Trump plans to withdraw his leadership from the John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, following a federal judge's decision that his name cannot be removed from the building. The decision was made by Judge Christopher Cooper, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, who also ruled that the Kennedy Center could no longer have his name on the building due to a 1964 act of Congress establishing the site as a "living memorial" to the assassinated leader. Since starting his second term, Trump has been involved in controversial activities at the centre, including removing Democratic members from the board and replacing them with his picks within weeks of his inauguration and replacing the leadership of the centre’s longtime president, Deborah Rutter. The Kennedy Center has been renamed after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
