Comedy legend Kelsey Grammer praises Trump at Kennedy Center honors: ‘One of the greatest presidents we’ve ever had’
“I think he’s extraordinary. He’s one of the greatest presidents we’ve ever had. Maybe the greatest,” Grammer said.
Kelsey Grammer, the comedian best known for his roles in Cheers and Frasier, has praised President Donald Trump as “extraordinary” and “one of the greatest presidents” the country has ever seen.
Speaking with Fox News ahead of the State Department’s Kennedy Center Honors medal preservation dinner on Saturday, Grammer said, “I think he’s extraordinary. He’s one of the greatest presidents we’ve ever had. Maybe the greatest. There are some things he still wants to get done, and I think that’s terrific, but there was a big hill to climb.” He continued, “And we were left with some very interesting things going on.”
“I think he’s extraordinary. He’s one of the greatest presidents we’ve ever had. Maybe the greatest,” Grammer added.
This year’s Kennedy Center honorees are Sylvester Stallone, Gloria Gaynor, George Strait, Michael Crawford, and the members of KISS. Speaking on Stallone’s win, Grammer said, “I was on the selection committee, so I knew about it. He’s a force of nature. Sylvester Stallone has captured our imagination in several different roles and performed them beautifully.” He said that it was “about time” that the famed actor received the honor.
Speaking during the Oval Office ceremony on Saturday, Trump said the honorees are “incredible people” who represent the “very best in American arts and culture.” Trump added, “I know most of them, and I’ve been a fan of all of them.”
“This is a group of icons whose work and accomplishments have inspired, uplifted and unified millions and millions of Americans. This is perhaps the most accomplished and renowned class of Kennedy Center Honorees ever assembled,” Trump continued.
The medal presented to this year’s honorees was newly designed by famed jeweler Tiffany & Co, who donated the awards. On one side of the gold disk is the Kennedy Center’s image and signature rainbow colors, while the honoree’s name and the date of the ceremony appear on the other.
