Fascinating how easily Trump can rile up the hypocritical liberal media et al and take control of the narrative, guess they just never learn. lol Or maybe he was just trying to better connect with Hillary supporters... Remember when Hillary Clinton tried to ban flag burning, TWICE?! Where was the outrage then?
Liberals erupted in outrage last night, wailing about assaults on the First Amendment, the dark night of fascism in America, etc., etc., ad nauseum, ad infinitum. It’s worth pointing out that there’s little Trump can actually do on this matter, as it’s already been settled by the Supreme Court, which in the 1989 case Texas v. Johnson overturned dozens of state anti-flag desecration laws in the name of free expression. The right to immolate the flag is the law of land.
In 2005, Hillary co-sponsored legislation to criminalize the desecration of the American flag, and in 2006, she enthusiastically supported another bill that would have done the same thing.
