The drama in the audience rivaled the spectacle on stage on Wednesday at the Kennedy Center, where President Donald Trump went to the opening night of “Les Misérables” as he tightens his grip on the venerable performing arts institution.
It was his first time attending a show there since his election, and he was booed and cheered as he took his seat alongside first lady Melania Trump. Near the end of the intermission, someone loudly cursed his name, drawing applause. Several drag queens were in the crowd, their presence a protest against Trump’s complaints that the Kennedy Center had hosted too many drag shows in the past.
If we could power the world with irony, we would have fixed the renewable energy problem in 1928 when they put Andrew Jackson on the 20$.
The irony of this event would be able to power a medium sized city, perhaps a data center or an aluminium foundry.
How much juice can we get when the daily show does a side by side with BBC reports of USA food shortages in a few months? I don’t know much about the story but I know people are desperate for bread.
