Officials at the Kennedy Center warn it faces “certain fiscal collapse” within weeks unless Donald Trump’s name is added back to the building, according to documents obtained by The New York Times and The Washington Post.

The warning appears in a draft resolution circulated to the performing arts center’s board of trustees ahead of a special meeting Tuesday, the outlets reported. The center says it could be unable to make payroll or pay routine maintenance contracts within weeks and risks bankruptcy, according to the documents.

Trump has offered to raise the money needed to keep it afloat – but only with “appropriate recognition” of his role, without which he is unlikely to lead the rescue or oversee a planned renovation, the resolution says, according to the two outlets.

    Yes actually. Many European leaders did not expect Hitlers rise to succeed or Germany to actually be able start a war because of such buffoonery and big lies. The Nazis succeeded out of audacity and luck, and the third reich would have crumbled like the cancer it was at some point in the 50s without the war, but possibly with a greater death toll, possibly not. The Nazis painted over the cracks in the foundation, didn’t actually repair anything. Like a modern US landlord.
