Trump criticizes Kennedy Center during board dinner

President Donald Trump criticized the Kennedy Center during a board board dinner at the White House on Monday. Earlier this year he ousted the existing board of the Washington, D.C. arts center and his newly-appointed board voted Trump to be the Kennedy Center's chair. Trump criticized the center for what he described as outdated interiors and misallocated funding. ?The Kennedy Center, when I said I?ll do this, I hadn?t been there,? Trump said at the dinner. ?It?s the last time I?ll take a job without looking at it.? He also spoke about his recent Middle East trip, claiming it is being "credited as one of the -- maybe the most -- successful visits that anybody has made to any place." Trump also gave more details on his phone call with Russian President Vladamir Putin earlier Monday about ceasefire talks.
