>Thin-Skinned Trump Snaps Over Kennedy Center Snub
>A dozen of the “Les Misérables” cast were expected to refuse to perform for the president.
>Donald Trump snapped at a reporter who tried to ask about Kennedy Center actors who were planning to walk out rather than perform for him Wednesday night. He cut off the question, insisting, “I couldn’t care less!”
>“Honestly, I couldn’t,” Trump added on the red carpet. “All I do is run the country well,” he said, before launching into a lengthy list of his self-proclaimed achievements.
>Les Misérables cast members were offered the option to sit out the show on the night of Trump’s attendance, and about a dozen performers were planning to do so, CNN reported.
>It underscores the ongoing conflict between Trump and members of the performing arts center, which he effectively seized control of in February. The president ousted much of the board, replaced them with loyalists, and appointed himself chairman, vowing to eliminate programming he deemed too “woke,” such as events featuring drag performers.
>“There’s no inflation. People are happy. People are wealthy. The country is getting back to strength again,” said Trump, who was accompanied on the red carpet by Melania. “That’s what I care about.”
