I can understand why my Blue Dog neighbors didn't fly the flag in 2016. The president then was not someone a Blue Dog would admire. But this is 2017, and still there are no flags. Am I missing something here?

Maybe because they don’t want their homes vandalized by those who did not vote for Trump

Because Soviet Union flags are harder to get?

There aren’t even as many flags out in solid red areas as you might expect. I try not to read too much into it. These things are cyclical.

I have the flag of the USA flying in front of my house SW of communist Boulder, CO. I am the only one in my neighborhood with a flag out.

I don’t fly a flag because the flag rules make it like owning a puppy. I keep my flag inside, where I can see it.

I’m here in Tempe Arizona and we are the only ones on our street displaying flags. I’m disappointed, too.

We never flew a flag-——no particular reason,just didn’t,and we were as patriotic as a family could be.

Don’t make too much out of this.

Why is that?

Single moms. It's hard to hang curtains, too.

Country doesn’t feel very united right now because the left’s semi-declaration of war on us. Hard to view the lefty down the street as a countryman when he disowned you over Trump and a leftist gun man tried to murder 5 GOP congressmen. I’d frankly rather punch a leftist than to celebrate with them.

I am in a blue state. I am the only one I’ve seen who has a flag up today.

I live in the most conservative county in Wisconsin, Waukesha. Just a FYI half of the homes on my block have flags displayed.

Maybe after the 15th year in Afghanistan people just aren’t into it as much as they were back then.

Flags all up and down my Hoosier street. Firewworks booming down at the meadow, bulldog sedated but still unhappy with the noise. Happy Independence day all!

I was surprised to see ONE other flag on this block besides me. The halfway house for drug addicts isn’t flying theirs... many people are from other countries... their gates are far from their homes... I put our flag out there creatively with no flag pole or holder thing.

You’re wrong. It’s RED dog.

Why is everyone content to accept ABC’s nearly 40 year-old shenanigans to shift red from Dems to the other side?

I was pleased to see a sea of blue on the map when Reagan won. Very quickly someone changed it to red and everybody & their sister has been short-stroking the rest of us ever since...

Flags cost money, and they have not yet recovered from the Obama economy?
