Democrats have their lowest approval ever at 18 percent, as we reported earlier this week.
It’s not hard to see why, when you look at their behavior. They seem to be fully focused on hating Trump, not doing anything productive. Their latest subject of outrage is the Kennedy Center. They’ve been losing their minds after the board voted to add President Donald Trump’s name to the Center because of his effort to help restore it.
“Journalist” Jim Acosta didn’t even pretend to have any objectivity and threw a major tantrum on Friday. He declared that “sh**” was “coming down” once the Trump team was done. He got a brutal schooling from Center president Ric Grenell, including how the building had been restored and the finances put in much better condition (after they did record fundraising). Acosta didn’t care about that reality; it didn’t help his narrative to attack Trump.

So, of course, instead of thanking Trump, they had a small group of people show up to protest the name change.
Guess who was there? Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s margarita buddy, Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), as he bemoaned the “horror” and the “desecration.” Van Hollen said it was only a question of “when” Trump’s name was going to come off the building.
Today I joined patriots at the Kennedy Center to make clear that Trump’s desecration of the Center will not stand. It’s not a matter of whether, but of when, his name will come down. We will not allow him to despoil what belongs to the American people. pic.twitter.com/3K4NvmMUV1

Here’s a thought. Maybe the desecration was letting it fall into disrepair. Why didn’t they care about that? If Trump doesn’t care about the arts, as Van Hollen claims, why would he go to the trouble of restoring the Center?
Trump’s effort against “our Democracy”? What were you doing, Senator, when you lobbied to bring back an illegal alien to our country? This X user had the right idea for Van Hollen:
How about the “Abrego Garcia Kennedy Center?” Any better? pic.twitter.com/62ok5wVGNz

Did Van Hollen care about any of the harmful effects of illegal immigration on our country? Van Hollen has no credibility to weigh in on anything after what he did.
This is the Democrats – not working to bring down prices, just working to attack Trump. They have to fight whatever he does, no matter what it is.
Oh, and yes, it was a serious protest.
We noted how they hit record fundraising for the Kennedy Center Honors event. But that wasn’t all, as the Trump Kennedy Center vice president of public relations, Roma Daravi. explained. She said that Trump had raised over $131 million in private and corporate donations; the president even convinced Congress to provide money for infrastructure needs that were desperately needed.
So, the Democrats can keep throwing fits, but Trump will keep tackling the issues and making things better.
