PoliticsTrump administration warns Kennedy Center could be demolished if repairs are blocked

Justice Department lawyers told a federal judge that Washington, DC’s Kennedy Center could be torn down if renovations cannot proceed. They said the venue cannot survive structurally or financially without presidential or administration support, and suggested replacing it with a simpler, cheaper outdoor amphitheatre. The warning came amid a lawsuit over efforts to add Donald Trump’s name to the building.
