GOP may rename Kennedy Center Opera House after Melania Trump...

The Kennedy Center’s famed opera house could be renamed to honor Melania Trump, if House Republicans have their way.

House Republicans on the Appropriations Committee approved an amendment to the interior, environment and related agencies annual spending bill that would rename the opera house in the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts the “First Lady Melania Trump Opera House.”

The panel voted 33-25 on Tuesday to approve the amendment, which was part of a series of others.

The push to pay homage to the first lady came months after President Trump, in an unprecedented move that was met with some criticism, overhauled the Kennedy Center’s board and named himself as its chair after accusing the performing arts institution of being too “woke.”

Both the president and Melania Trump — who bucked tradition during his first term in office and declined to take part in the annual Kennedy Center Honors — attended the opening night performance of “Les Misérables” at the Washington arts hub last month. 

Neither representatives for the Kennedy Center nor the first lady’s office immediately responded to ITK’s request for comment about the opera house’s potential name change.

It remains unclear when GOP leaders plan to put the legislation, with the amendment, on the floor for a vote of the full chamber.

With more than 2,300 seats, the opera house is the second-largest theater at the Kennedy Center and often hosts its headline performances.

“Over the years, the Opera House has welcomed dozens of the world’s great dance and opera companies and has hosted some of the most important artistic events of the last quarter century,” according to the Kennedy Center.

Oh good grief...  There are a lot more important things going on than renaming the Kennedy Center to the FLOTUS...

Hopefully if it comes to a full vote, people come to their senses and kill it...

I’m sure they might, she is in support of full term abortion.

Democrats only pull this out when they disagree. Dems have been leading the dumbest name and vocabulary changes forever.

This is what pathetic, cowardly, cult-member simps do.

Like tearing down statues they don't like? Oh, wait, that's what cults like ISIS and leftists do.

Good. 

Sad though that poor posty is manic depressive.

This would be wonderful! 

Melania is an Angel. She's a beautiful, highly intelligent classy Woman that all Girls should look up to.
