Trump:

The Board of Directors of the Kennedy Center agreed today, almost unanimously, to close the building for safety reasons, and so that it can begin the process of restoration.

The closure will take place immediately, however, the renovation and restoration, which is a very large and complex job, cannot begin until such time as the DC Circuit determines the board's approved name.

If the verdict is negative, which it should not be, and is not overturned by the US Supreme Court, the restoration and renovation of the Kennedy Center will not take place.
