A Republican lawmaker was booted from Pennsylvania’s Democrat-controlled State House chamber over his choice of patriotic attire celebrating the U.S. founding 250 years ago this week in the commonwealth.

"He comes back a few minutes later and he says, ‘hey, you're not going to like this,’" Davanzo said, going on to recount that McClinton informed minority leadership that his attire was inappropriate.

"I’m like, ‘what? You’ve got to be kidding,’" Davanzo said, before learning McClinton wanted him off the House floor.

In Pennsylvania a red, white, and blue suit is inappropriate on the house floor of the state legislature. Meanwhile, in the US Senate, it is completely acceptable for a senator from PA to wear sweat pants and a hoodie in the Senate chambers.

Can we just snatch the Dems off the floor and place them between a firing squad and a concrete wall now?

The man also said democrats previously wore pride colors on the house floor to celebrate pride month.

But you can’t wear USA colors…

Simply because the House Speaker didn't want it.

And it’s the job of the GOP to force them to admit their anti American beliefs publicly and explicitly.

The pinkos do that on their own, every day, and with every vote they cast. The GOPe could call it out, sure, but it's redundancy at best. Their agenda is wide open and they don't disguise it. Most people just don't see it because they aren't paying attention.

How dare an American politician wear Stars and Stripes attire around the 4th of July and 250th anniversary.

Doesn’t he realize all the oppressed people from here AND from all over the world living in this country who detest it and are offended that someone would celebrate this place they hate!?!

The nerve of that guy thinking America should be celebrated!

Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker's desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.
The flag should never be fastened, displayed, used, or stored in such a manner as to permit it to be easily torn, soiled, or damaged in any way.
The flag should never be used as a covering for a ceiling.
The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.
The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever.

This was highlighted but doesn't apply. he is not wearing a flag, if you look at the picture, he is wearing a red and white stripped coat with a blue tie with white stars on it. This is not wearing a flag. Sorry.

Dumicrats just being who they are. Anti American Socialists.
