The uber arrogance of him wanting his name on there in the 1st place is infuriating to a majority of Americans. But he never cared about that. He thinks he deserves it for being able to cheat his way through life so well.

Why do they need to put up enough scaffolding to build a skyscraper, when they could just use a cherrypicker and have it done in an hour? I’m calling bullshit. I don’t trust this. I’m betting that it’s either a stall tactic, waiting for a decision change, or a way to make it cost WAY more.

How would working from a scaffold differ from working from a scissors life or a cherry picker to repair marble? Building a scaffold was a gambit to buy time to appeal. Once the Circuit Court shot down the appeal, they had to carry on with the scaffolding con. It's now been over 11 hours.

What do you bet they start tarping the outside of that gigantic scaffolding to censor the visual? They put the lettering up with a couple of bucket lifts, no big deal. The scaffolding is completely unnecessary unless it’s to be used to screen off the event.

GONE!!! Like it NEVER happened!! Now do the BALLROOM! #NowDoTheBallroom #NowDoTheBallroom #NowDoTheBallroom #NowDoTheBallroom #NowDoTheBallroom #NowDoTheBallroom #NowDoTheBallroom

The big orange baby has found another way of getting his name there - spend a mint of public money on it then his committee will be so grateful they will insist the name Donald J Trump and his generosity is displayed all over the building outside and in. Pathetic

They didn't seem to need such elaborate scaffolding when they put the letters on. They may be stalling for time, hoping that their attempt at getting a stay of the order is successful. Don't hold your breath waiting for his name to actually come off.

I think the scaffolding is the correct and safest way to do something like this. Using the lifts when they put them up was probably just the quickest way, which was necessary to appease the asshole-in-chief

Was their last minute attempt to get a stay of the order denied? ttps://bsky.app/profile/rparloff.bsky.social/post/3mo33te2vj22t

2 weeks ago, Judge Cooper gave Trump 14 days to remove his name from Kennedy Center. Last night, hours before expiration, Trump moved for a stay. Argues that Congress didn't forbid "secondary names," the way Dept of War is also "known by secondary names." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

He is going to have to bomb someone just to feel powerful. Look what he did to Iran after the MSG boos and the MTP ridicule. Any bets in who he will use to fulfill his sadistic needs.

we're going to have to have another 250th celebration when he's gone. Don't even address the fact that its a couple years late or the first one was a dud. Just a great big party for making it to 250 as a functioning democracy.

(And, yes, even if they go to SCOTUS, without a stay, the ruling is still in effect, so the name would have to go down.) The compliance deadline is today — so, yeah, before midnight. Anyway, watch a livestream — www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAhm... — and subscribe to Law Dork: www.lawdork.com

Why are they using scaffolding? A manlift would do the job in 1/10 of the time and at much less cost--my guess is that they want to slow the process down so Trump has a chance to court shop to get an injunction to stop it

I like how you think. I was super excited to find it, given that he pushed it to the last minute, filed an appeal, ignored 1 in 3 court rulings already & his fkn name should never have been there to begin with. Imma be watching until the letters hit the ground. (Maybe pretend they’re fireworks). 😜

The longer these union workers take to set up the scaffolding, the bigger this party is going to get. And this is just for a name removal. Just imagine.

They have to make repairs to the stone work. Trump's goons used anchoring hardware to put his trash name on the building which requires drilling. When you remove those anchors, the holes and any surface damage will need to be repaired so the stone does not weaken over time.

I honestly doubt they will be repairing the stone this go around. Maybe put some soft grout, but that's probably it. They seem to be slow rolling the scaffolding and the removal so it's done while people are watching

That is why they delayed the buildup of the scaffolding. His latest attempt for a stay in removing this 💩 off the beautiful Italian marble was turned down ~3 hours ago Our tax payers dollars are being wasted to appeal to the US Court of Appeals DC, but w/o a stay, the original Court order stands.

No the "Board" decided to do a last minute appeal if the order to tear the name down. We're waiting on the appeals court now. Hopefully they'll issue a decision tonight.

👏🏿👏🏼👏🏾👏🏽😅🤣😂. Wish we could blot out all reference to rump’s existence… but, unlike him, know history cannot be re-written to satisfy our desires. So - May we never experience this corruption again.
