Why do liberals hate displays of the flag? They seem to abhor the sight of it and what it represents.

PALM BEACH, Fla. — The patriarchs of this quiet island of millionaires threw up roadblocks when Donald Trump swooped in and turned its historic oceanfront Mar-a-Lago mansion into a private club.
The town council, seeing Trump as an ostentatious outsider, handed him a list of restrictions as he sought to transform the property in the 1990s. Membership, traffic, party attendance, even photography — all would be strictly limited.
But Trump undercut his adversaries with a searing attack, claiming that local officials seemed to accept the established private clubs in town that had excluded Jews and blacks while imposing tough rules on his inclusive one.
Trump’s lawyer sent every member of the town council copies of two classic movies about discrimination: “A Gentleman’s Agreement,†about a journalist who pretends to be Jewish to expose anti-Semitism, and “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner†about a white couple’s reaction to their daughter bringing home a black fiance.
The move infuriated council members, who said it was a distraction from their concerns that Trump’s club would spoil a quiet street. But, in time, Trump got most of the restrictions lifted.

Inside the lefts nver ending barrage of lies.
So many different tacks they take against Trump.
This is the one that says Trump is nouveau riche white trash.
Can we see the Clinton Foundation’s books and their donors?
Trump is sort of a mystery:
He’s the billionaire who never talks down to workers, who is REVILED by rich people and is somehow viewed as The Little Guy by poor people.
And it’s ALL TRUE.
The residents were all a-flutter over this demonstration of patriotism.
Of course, Trump won.

I stand corrected. The articles does mention about the flag battle towards the end.
Rush sticks to the Breakers, but Michael Savage was swooning over Trump in his radio interview with him, closing with, “See you at Mar-a-Lago, Donald!”
"Since 2013, the Palm Beach County Republican Committee has held its annual Lincoln Day fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago. Michael Barnett, committee chairman, remembers seeing Cruz last year deep in conversation with Trump and wonders if one of the reasons they are so friendly on the campaign trail is because of a bond forged at Mar-a-Lago."
Indeed!!! That Is interesting!
Hope he has a nice telescope in that tower pointed seaward. It wouldn’t be authentic without one :)
So what kind of deal might they have with each other?
Well I think it is fair to say that without Trump being in the race, Jebbie Bush would have the nomination just about all wrapped up by now and that all the vitriol that was directed at Trump these past few months would have been directed instead at Cruz.
So perhaps Trump agreed to run for president to keep the heat off Cruz. And in the case Trump actually happened to win the nomination and election, he would have a spot for Cruz in his administration (if not VP). And likewise should Cruz be the winner.

Check this out for the comments about Trump withholding his 2012 endorsement until he found out if Sarah was running!
Now I'm convinced. Trump will be our next president. He wants that no-fly zone!
The "T" was too close to the Trump "T", so he tried to pay the guy to change the name. He didn't sue, he simply offered money... he went up to $1 million, and the guy still refused. Trump gave it up and forgot about it. Most libs would have sued.
Years ago Trump wanted to buy an old condo tower on the Intercoastal, just south of Delray Beach. He offered every condo owner in the place double market value for their condos. He got the place, fixed it up and made money. Everyone was happy.
Those are some of the stories I've heard about him in these parts... and heard them long before anyone thought he might be a candidate for anything.
“Trump diplomatically told Perry he would not make an endorsement in the GOP primary race until he knows whether former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin plans to run.”

Urgent: Rate Obama on His Job Performance. Vote Here Now!
I believe that Cruz is functioning as a one-man steering committee for Trump on issues.
"Donald, you want to know who's the expert on immigration? Have your people get in touch with Jeff Sessions' people. Jeff's the expert in Congress on this issue. His people will give your people what they need for a position paper."
I suspect that Cruz is the key person in Trump's brain trust.
Yes they did. This is just additional evidence that maybe something is up with them.
