Now Republicans are pushing for Trump Center for the Performing Arts

It’s gone beyond Melania and the opera house.

Rep. Bob Onder of Missouri has introduced a bill to rename the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts the Donald J. Trump Center for the Performing Arts. The bill is called the Make Entertainment Great Again (MEGA) Act.

Onder called Trump ‘a patron of the arts and a staple of the pop-culture landscape.’ He added, ‘I cannot think of a more ubiquitous symbol of American exceptionalism in the arts, entertainment and popular culture at large than President Trump.’

Really?

Start with Taylor Swift, Meatloaf, Bob Dylan, Springsteen, Madonna, Streisand, Spielberg, Beyoncé.

How dumb can he be?
