President Trump speaks to reporters on Air Force One – June 5, 2026
President Trump on Friday went off on the conflicted Obama Judge who blocked his Kennedy Center name change and renovations last week, declaring he “should be ashamed of himself.”
Trump gave an unsolicited take on the Kennedy Center when he was asked about funding for a promenade he plans to install, connecting the Lincoln Memorial to the Potomac River. “It’s going to be beautiful,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Thursday.
“We have a lot of sources of funding. We won’t have to go back to Congress,” he said, adding, “And a lot of people have asked me to stay involved with the Kennedy Center.”
“We had a judge, who’s totally conflicted, but that’s all right. He’s a totally conflicted judge, should be ashamed of himself,” he said.
Trump further noted that he wants to repair the “dangerous” building and also fix it “from the standpoint of attendance.”
WATCH:
Trump: A lot of people have asked me to stay involved with the Kennedy Center. We had a judge, who’s totally conflicted, but that’s all right. He’s a totally conflicted judge, should be ashamed of himself. But they’ve asked me in the strongest of language to stay involved with the Kennedy Center.
I mean, it’s a very, it’s very dangerous, number one. Number two, it was losing, for years, tremendous amounts of money, so I’m considering that, but a lot of people have asked me to get it fixed. We have to fix the Kennedy Center, both physically and from the standpoint of attendance.
When asked a follow-up about the Kennedy Center and his involvement, Trump said, “I’m the Chairman, so we’ll just keep it going.”
“The judge really hurt the Kennedy Center,” he continued, noting, “I’m gonna look at his ruling on that.”
“Physically, we have to bring it back, and we have to bring it back another way. So, we’ll take a good look at it.”
WATCH:
Reporter: You mentioned the Kennedy Center, sir. How do you want to be involved moving forward?
Trump: Well, the same way it is. I’m the Chairman, so we’ll just keep it going. Somebody has to do it. It loses a lot of money; it has for years. It’s lost hundreds of millions of dollars for years, and yet it’s something you have to keep going. You know, it’s the arts. They all lose money, Carnegie Hall, you take a look at all of that kind of thing loses. So they, really everybody, they want me to say very badly, so we’re gonna, we’re gonna take a look.
The judge really hurt the Kennedy Center because he slowed down– We were gonna, you know, were gonna spend a lot of money on fixing it and making it, bringing it back to health, and the judge really made it very hard to do that. But we’re gonna— I’m gonna look at his ruling on that, but we have to bring it back. Physically, we have to bring it back, and we have to bring it back another way. So, we’ll take a good look at it.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Obama appointed U.S. District Judge Christopher R. Cooper ruled that Trump’s hand-picked Kennedy Center board illegally added the President’s name to the venue and improperly voted to close it for two years of critical structural repairs.
Trump later suggested that the judge “should be brought up on charges” for failing to disclose his extreme conflict of interest.
His wife, Trump said, is a “Radical Left Democrat, who worked as a Federal Prosecutor and Counselor to Obama Attorney General, Eric Holder, worked behind the scenes for the January 6th Unselect Committee of Political Hacks and Thugs, Dirty Cop FBI attorney Lisa Page in the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal, RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA Hoax, and her Millions of Dollars Settlement, even though she was ‘guilty as hell,’ and is currently representing Sleepy Joe Biden on the release of his audio tapes, and more.”
Trump continued, “She also works for the same Legal Firm that represented E. Jean Carroll who received a decision against me, now under appeal, that was shocking to the entire World. Amy is totally wired into the Left System, from her husband down, and it is impossible for me to be treated fairly.”
