Trump plans to attend 'Les Misérables' at the Kennedy Center after taking over the institution

President Donald Trump is taking his seat in the president's box for opening night of the award-winning musical “Les Misérables” at the Kennedy Center. Trump's scheduled appearance Wednesday comes as he has focused on the performing arts center more than any recent predecessor. It'll mark the Republican's first time attending a performance there as president. Trump avoided the center in his first term following entertainment industry pushback over his policies. Since returning to office, Trump has replaced the Kennedy Center's president and board with loyalists, had himself named chairman and pledged to overhaul programming he calls “woke” and too focused on leftist ideology. Trump's moves have upset some patrons and performers.
