    I am looking forward to the day when all MAGA merch will be burned - it will be as glorious as the burning and destruction of Swastikas and Nazi flags in Germany and Europe in 1945.

          Desecrate like repainting it black with a single blue line?

                        Oh, nice. That covers anyone who leaves a flag out at night without a lamp shining on it. Or anyone flying a flag that has any tattered pieces.

                          I remember learning about the Constitution in school. What a fascinating piece of history it was.

                            Flag code is an advisory for proper handling of the flag. That's it. Flag code was never meant to supersede the Constitution.

                            That he would use executive orders to push such totalitarian things isn't surprising, but it shouldn't get far before it's challenged by the Supreme Court.

                            Unless the Court has been bought. Let's see how this plays out. Weird way to stimulate the economy by getting people to buy flags (made in China) to burn in protest.

                              (There is no punishment proscribed for violations of the flag code.)

                                      I'm normally not a flag burner but this makes me want to burn one even more.

                                          Next step indeed will be where it is a severe offense if one desecrates the image of Trump, creator king of the new USA.

                                          Thailand is to be the example in this matter.
