This is a recipe for disaster right there.

And speaking of just the symbolism of it all, Donald Trump had to violate a court order because the court said by 1159, take your name off that damn Kennedy Center.

And Trump had to build the scaffolding.

Then he lied to the court and said, look,

The reason that this took so long was because of the thunderstorms.

That's why it took us so long, really, because it only took you a few hours or less to actually put your name on the thing in the first place.

No, it took long because you were...

building the scaffolding in order to hide the removal because you are such a pathetic human being.

I kid you not, in a court filing, Team Trump said thunderstorms caused the Kennedy Center to violate the court order and fail to remove Trump's name by the 1159 p.m.

deadline.

The filing doesn't explain why they waited till the last minute to do the job.

Isn't that just, again, perfectly symbolic of the failure of this falling and collapsing regime?

This was the declaration.

Declaration of Charles Matthew Matt.

Matt, in quotes, of Flocka.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C., I, Charles Matthew Flaca, state as follows.

I currently serve as the Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

In this capacity, I exercise operational authority over all institutional departments, managing complex integration of both trust and federal functions, including all elements of the Center's physical footprint.

The matters set forth in this declaration are true and correct from my own personal knowledge and from information made available to me in the course of my official duties.

I make this declaration to explain why defendants, meaning Trump and the regime, need additional time to submit compliance declaration required by the court's order.
