Actually, probably more like stumbled past the flag.

This is perhaps the only better picture to represent the current state of the country than the one we got last week with Trump scowling at the camera with that man collapsing on the floor.

I guarantee you Trump never even saw it. He doesn’t see anything that’s not of interest to him.
I feel like the pedophile thing is a bit more impactful

Hey, just the Commander-in-Chief of the United States of America Armed Forces strolling by the US Flag on the ground. Happens every day, right? 🙄

Trump’s probably the worst president in history, and I’m also not about to start pretending I give a shit about flags or the flag code. Meaningless topic

The flag is not blurred in the article… is HuffPo censoring their own thumbnails?
> “Due to the high winds on Sunday evening in the Washington, D.C. area, the flag was lowered into a special container out of an abundance of caution during the Marine One landing.”
So the flag was on such a crappy flagpole they were afraid a helicopter landing would wreck it, and so decided the best way to protect it from being blown around was to lower it and ~~tangle it up~~ **carefully store it in the fake plants** around the base?
I know reading is hard for this administration, but the US Flag Code already covers what to do if wind is a problem. None of the suggestions involve just lowering the flag to let it flop around on the flowerbed.

If this was Obama there would be no other scandal to talk about so this would take up an entire 24 hour news cycle. But with Trump it will barely be a footnote.

What do you expect? He saw a man passed out in his office and did nothing.
Probably said: “Sucks to be you”.

How long before he blames biden?

Don’t really care about this cause shit happens and I think it’s dumb when conservatives clutch their pearls over the same kind of stuff.
I just think it’s an apt metaphor for his administration.
The radical left burning non existent American flags? 5 years behind bars. POTUS, aka THROATUS, walks by a huge fallen American flag? $2 billion dollars and likes.

Why the fuck did they blur the flag?

It’s always “appearing” or “alleged” or “hoax”. I can see it with my own damn eyes. FFS the gaslighting.

The flag on the ground is very disrespectful. Why would Trump care?

That photo and the one of him standing at his desk in the Oval Office, looking bothered that someone had the audacity to collapse near him, are so very telling of what he actually cares about

Why is it censored in the thumbnail?

Trump loves the symbolism.

Really…
Children were raped. Police officers were injured. People are being murdered on boats.
Yes, he should be more … presidential.
Meanwhile, the President should be NOT A RAPIST. NOR AN INSURRECTIONIST. NOR A MURDERER.
Impeach and remove Donald Trump.

I said it in a different post…
It’s a perfect representation of his administration

The government employee who made sure the symbolism didn’t get too heavy-handed was laid off by DOGE.

Honestly it’s not as bad as when he called Veterans a bunch of suckers and losers, or when he said that the Medal of Freedom is better than the Medal of Honor, or when he used Arlington National Cemetery for a photo op and then one of his staff assaulted a cemetery worker when they tried to tell him he couldn’t do the photo op there.

Might as well shit on it…..again!

Well, his own supporters [ripped off the Stars and Stripes from the Capitol](https://people.com/politics/pro-trump-rioters-tear-down-american-flag-replace-with-trump-flag-at-u-s-capitol-building/), dumped it on the ground and replaced it with the banner of his cult. Why would he care for the symbol of a country that he’s never shown any loyalty to.
