Wander over to Xhitter and you'll find video of DonOld Trump violating the U.S. Flag Code by autographing an American flag because, of course. Around a table, a number of members of the public stand holding the flag down as Trump scribbles along one of its white stripes.

According to section 8 of the U.S Flag Code, "The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature."

He also brought Laura Loomer -- an atrocious conspiracy theorist who called September 11 an “inside job” -- to the New York ceremony commemorating September 11.

He just keeps digging around for a bottom without ever finding one: smiling with thumbs up over graves of the fallen at Arlington, fist pumping in Shanksville, PA, and traveling with Loomer, who recently made racist remarks about vice president Harris.

With that guy, there ain't no bottom.

If he had burned the flag then you'd be cheering him.

Alas. Maybe next time.

So the "blue line" flags are also not kosher? I see a lot of those on car windows and bumpers.

Not that I actually give a damn. I would NOT support arresting or fining the convict for that. In fact, wasn't the Flag Code nullified when SCOTUS said it was OK to burn it?
