I’ve only seen anti-American burn our flag.

Desecration of a Country's flag is never acceptable but have they investigated the anger behind this?

The best and easiest way to end flag-burning is to END dumb Donnie trump MAGA BIDEN 202020 MAGA BIDEN 2020MAGA BIDEN 2020 MAGA BIDEN 2020MAGABID
Can someone please tell me why everything comes back to Rep V Dem. Everything seems to boil down to this. Neither side working with the other. There is no middle. At the end the ones who suffer are the American People and USA as a country. So fucking sad.
I demand that Trump stop lying.
Isn’t his face on an American flag, defacing the flag?
Since a SCOTUS order didn't work and it's now the law of the land, nobody cares about your opinion!!!
One guy suggest buying cheap little flags and and have his children burning them...I say look his ass up so the children can learn😜😝😂🤟 MAGA
I'm flying my flag upside down to symbolize the trouble this country is in with Trump as president.
Seems like realDonaldTrump 's demand for people to end flag burning during protest is only fueling more flag burning.
Move to another if you don’t like America, I bet you won’t.
When the promises that a flag carries doesn’t deliver them to all, it leaves those people not much choice...
The American flag is a hope for everyone who believes in democracy, liberty,and freedom. Any disrespect to the American Flag should not be tolerated.
Trump cares about burning the cloth but not about destroying what it stands for.
Bring in the Marines. Let’s see them burn flags in front of US Marines.
Hey realDonaldTrump, how about demanding an end to the coronavirus and do something productive with your time rather than shot-tweeting and distracting with things like this? DoYourFuckingJob
My rights allow me to wipe my ass with the flag. Then piss on it. Then spit on it. And with the current state of our government, it would be justified.
Playing to his base again. The majority of Americans know flag-burning was ruled by SCOTUS to be 'symbolic speech' protected by the First Amendment.
Why, he doesn't give a damn about America, Republicans, or his base. Let alone the rest of us. BTW: how many Republicans, his base have died from the Coronavirus? Or infected? Or trump's wealthy cronies? Coronavirus doesn't care about politics or party or wealth!
