Jackie Kennedy's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, criticizes the demolition of the Rose Garden by Trump

Jack Schlossberg, the nephew of Jackie Kennedy, harshly criticized Donald Trump's actions, which demolished the Rose Garden created by the former First Lady at the White House, turning it into an entertainment space. Schlossberg wrote on Instagram that Trump "poured concrete" over the historic lawn, replacing the flowers with a $300 million ballroom. He emphasized that his grandmother brought life and inspiration to the White House, while Trump sees it in "black and white."

Schlossberg included photos of John F. Kennedy Jr. admiring the garden and the destroyed lawn. Criticizing Trump's administration, he urged voters to stop him in the midterm elections, highlighting the importance of leaders who care about the public good. He also mentioned that Trump needs to present his plans to the National Capital Planning Commission, even though he has already begun demolition work. Polls show a slight favor for Democrats in the upcoming 2026 elections, which could influence future legislative decisions.
