Dems are outraged the flag wasn’t lowered yet simultaneously cheer kneeling when the flag is raised at NFL games...?

You can’t make this sh!t up. Trump has broken them

Flag etiquette is of the highest importance to democrats now.

Trump lowered the flag according to protocol,then raised the flag according to protocol, then lowered it again when democrats complained and wanted it lowered past the protocol.

Obviously you can see the justification for the outrage over such acts.

It was slanderous, preposterous, outrageous!

Their flip on George W is even more outrageous than this.

I thought it was just a piece of cloth to them; a symbol of violence and oppression that should be burned at every opportunity.

Or you could say: Trump rails on NFL players kneeling put of protest for what they feel is a violation of black rights but then violates the sane flag etiquette over being petty.

Nice attempt at a spin.

What makes it even funnier is they're showing faux outrage for a man they hated and tried to destroy in 2008 and a man who fought in a war that the Left could not stand.

All just to try and get a “win” on TRUMP

Okay, I thought etiquette was day of death and day after death for a member of Congress. Is this not correct?

Apparently being a former presidential candidate and hated enemy of the President means we keep the flag at half staff for a month.

Agreed. The MSM and you have made a very valid point and trump needed to hear it. To properly respect the dead, flag etiquette must be adhered to.

LOL. That argument went out the door for the Dems when they started cheering flag/anthem kneeling for the last 3 years.

Is Trump protesting McCain's death?

Kneeling is protest and a right we have in this country.

I'm surprised the right who tend to be pro military/vet/flag are okay with the flag not being used in it's traditional form.

It's traditional to fly the flag at half someone of McCain profile past away.

That's the tradition that I'm referring to...

But if the conservatives have no issue with Trump not lowering the flag, then they should no longer have an issue with players kneeling.....

Be consistent.

NFL players were protesting which is a right that the Constitution allows.

Was Trump protesting the Death of John McCain? If so, then I would say the left are being hypocritical.
