Thousands Tune in Live to Watch Trump Name Taken Off Kennedy Center

Tens of thousands of people have flocked to YouTube to witness President Donald Trump's name being taken off the Kennedy Center building in real time.

MS NOW played a live social media feed of workers scrapping the 79-year-old president's name from the storied arts institution in Washington, D.C. At one point, people could be heard cheering off-camera.

The removal deals a humiliating blow to Trump's doomed crusade to keep his name on the performing arts center named after former President John F. Kennedy.

Last month, U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper rejected Trump's bid to remake the Kennedy Center in his image because the name change did not go through Congress, as is required by law.

Democracy-loving world. Almost too good to be true.

It's really nice to know the Court and Judge Cooper got the law obeyed.

We know the Kennedys are ecstatic, except, of course, the worm-eaten one.
