Make the Kennedy Center Honors Great Again
75% Informative
President Donald Trump has made a compelling case for the paucity of good programming at the performing-arts complex on the Potomac River .
The Kennedy Center Honors , however, are a different matter altogether, their decline is not a local Beltway manner but a problem of national importance.
The prize has been doled out annually since 1978 to assorted notables in the performing arts.
President Trump should direct his attention to revamping the Kennedy Center Honors .
Cher , the cast and crew of Sesame Street and the Grateful Dead are among the honorees.
The president is a sincere fan of middlebrow artists that the Honors used to fete with frequency.
