Trump and Melania booed at Kennedy Center while protesting drag queens cheered

The event marked a significant return for Trump, who had previously boycotted the venue following backlash from the entertainment industry over his policies during his first term.

"For the "Les Misarables" performance at the Kennedy Center, Trump packed the auditorium with sycophants of his fascist authoritarian regime and he still couldn't drown out the boos from disgusted and revulsed members of the audience," Madden wrote. "At the Kennedy Center, half the theater just started clapping when a group of drag queens showed up to find their seats at opening night of Les Miserables, which Trump, Melania, Vance and their top allies have all come out to see," McCreesh wrote. President Trump nominated Usha Vance to the Kennedy Center board, along with White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and Fox News Channel hosts Maria Bartiromo and Laura Ingraham, among other supporters.
