Overview
- Kennedy Center trustees voted on Dec. 18 to add President Donald J. Trump’s name to the congressionally designated memorial, with the White House citing his role in funding and renovations.
- Toby Morton says he bought TrumpKennedyCenter.org and .com in August and confirmed the domains are parked with GoDaddy and not yet active.
- He plans a parody site targeting Trump’s branding and self-promotion, and he reports a wave of creatives offering to help build it.
- The center’s official website remains kennedy-center.org, though Trump’s name now features prominently on public-facing materials, and any domain change is uncertain.
- A federal lawsuit filed by Rep. Joyce Beatty seeks to block the renaming on the grounds that only Congress can change the memorial’s statutory name.
