To take a beloved American institution dedicated to the arts and the memory of JFK, purposely run it into the ground through gross malfeasance and grift and then conceal the nature of its closure is beyond the pale. And criminal.

Trump and his Flying Monkey Brigade belong behind bars, the electrified sort, to remind them of the animals they've become.

Another flaming example of ETTD!
