Why stop there?
What about the disrespect shown to the flag by commercializing it?
Having it's image on clothing?
Having it's image on disposable paper goods?
Tearing it to shreds mounted on the back of trucks at freeway speeds?

Paragraph 176 sections (d) and (i).

and longtime advocates for ending Medicare and Social Security and for privatizing the nation's roadways and bridges.

NONE of these policies were part of any Republican's campaign speeches. Now they are priority issues for GOP in 2017.

People need to start reading these tweets for what they are - distraction.
