    Flying the American flag and a Trump banner makes no sense

    I sincerely applaud all those who proudly fly our flag, and I accept those who feel strongly enough about political candidates to display signs and other items in their support.

    What I find totally incomprehensible are those who festoon their homes and vehicles with both American flags and Trump banners. Here is a person under criminal indictment, found legally responsible for civil misdeeds, and is liable for large fines and and penalties for his business dealings. While proudly supporting tyrants and dictators in hostile foreign countries, he vilifies people and agencies in our own government. He wraps himself in our flag while brazenly referring to those in the military as suckers. His words are completely antithetical to everything we as a nation stand for and his actions have served only to enhance his personal enrichment and aggrandizement.

    How can people still feel that he is entitled any respect as a citizen, let alone as somebody morally qualified to be our president?
