Not flying the flags at half staff shows the truth. Trump goes for the details to be mean. Whatever tiny details to make clear he doesn't like someone, he goes for it. It doesn't matter who or why, he goes for them. While a normal person might leave something alone, and just let it be, Trump doesn't. McCain didn't want him at the funeral, so Trump orders White House Flags flown at full staff, not half staff. And, everyone in the United States knows who ordered it.

(23,322 posts)She will have no comment OR she will blather on about how the president respects the flag and believes it should fly at full mast...or something equally equally meaningless. My hope is that one of the WH Press Corp will follow up with if the president respects the flag, can you comment on why he colored it wrong? However, Im not holding my breath for that fantasy to come true.

(16,928 posts)You KNOW IQ45 didn't make any mistakes in coloring that flag - it was the little kid who started by using the wrong color - it was "Mr. Flag" who was stepping in to correct the kid. After all, NOBODY cares more about the flag than IQ45, right?
And besides, can you name even ONE person that he wouldn't throw under the bus if he needed to? There's no sanctity in protecting some little kid when it may seem that the "smarter-than-everybody" person in the room could have made a mistake. No matter what the video or hundreds of photographs may show, you know it was the kid's fault, right?

And Senator McCain rest easy cause your last wish will be obliged no tRump will NOT be there at your funeral.

(42,759 posts)Two years ago this is who the republicans selected to be the leader of our country.
There were several other opponents in the primary but this is who they wanted the
most. Therefore we must assume Trump has all the "qualities" republicans hold near
and dear. So we must never forget this is what the republicans are all about.

@realDonaldTrump
Over 90% approval rating for your all time favorite (I hope) President within the Republican Party and 52% overall. This despite all of the made up stories by the Fake News Media trying endlessly to make me look as bad and evil as possible. Look at the real villains please!

What an immature grade school, blah blah, blah thing to do. This president is an embarrassment to the world, much less the United States of America. Other nations see this complete and utter stupidity as well.
And now, my grade school rant - what a fucking ass!
FakeNoose
(32,645 posts)Getting even - vengeance - is the only thing he cares about. He's an evil man and nothing will stop him from getting revenge for any perceived insult no matter how petty. He actually says this in his book "The Art of the Deal" which I've read, and maybe in other books which I haven't read.
Revenge was his motive for running for president, to get back at Obama for what he decided was a major insult. The fact that he insulted Obama first and in a huge way, makes no difference. Obama told a few jokes at Trump's expense at the White House media correspondents' dinner in 2011. It's sort of like a roast where people get up and say funny teasing things, and nobody takes it seriously. Until Trump took it seriously, and now we'll never be the same.

(28,264 posts)The flag of any nation which allows a scumbag like trump to be put in the White House by means of an obviously crooked election, and then tenders said scumbag an ongoing approval rating in the high 40's, regardless of obvious transgressions, is unworthy of my public support. I'll start putting my hand on my heart again, when we have a new president.
