Trump Name on JFK Center is Graffiti

The vile addition of Donald Trump's name to the official memorial to JFK is willful defacement of a public building without authorization. The assassinated President's name is shoved aside by the vulgar Trump moniker as though the center is one more acquisition of the Trump empire.

It is graffiti, pure and simple. It is critical to pry those ugly letters off JFK's memorial as soon as possible. Soiling in progress.

1. No - It's tagging. Graffiti can be insightful, often done by urban artists. Gang members tag w/name, number, insignia.

The Kennedy Center was named by an act of Congress and Uncle Sam (i.e. OUR COUNTRY) owns the property.
Chump can go "F" himself. Seriously....
