And it's not like you're going to despoil any scenic vistas by hoisting a giant flag. Quite the opposite.
I say, plant the pole!

When New England, succumbs too Glo-Bull Warming, Climate Change, Grets's Curse, and Algore Theology; sinking below the waves; taking the beach front Martha's Vineyard mansion of the "Lying African" with it; the beautiful Star Spangled Banner of the "Patriotic Down Easters"...."still waves"...
We were up there during the COVID BS, and I saw lots of Trump flags and signs, only a few miles from Columbia Falls.
It was wonderful. Nobody gave a crap if you wore or didn't wear a mask. If they store required it, they had a sign, and people who didn't want to go inside didn't. Very refreshing, right up my alley. Contrast with the moonbattery in Belfast, ME which is extremely Leftist (this is a bakery in that town):
We stopped there on our way home, and I was accosted by two separate groups of people for not wearing my mask, and one husband and wife who grilled me about owning a foreign car and not buying American. Who needs that crap? (If they really wanted an answer, which they didn't, I would have told them I wasn't going to buy cars from any entity that the UAW is involved in that universally backs people who hate me and my values)
Here is the main tourist attraction in Columbia Falls (besides Worcester Wreaths):
It was all shut down, even the store, but you could buy their signature blueberry pie by the slice with nice vanilla ice cream on top. I make pies from scratch, and consider myself well versed as this picture of one of my apple pies demonstrates: 
I did not have any great expectations for the pie, honestly. I thought it would be "diner pie" at best (which is often not bad). But it was wholly the best slice of Blueberry Pie I have ever eaten, hands down. Just superb.
Point is, the very people I suspect who are fighting this are likely the same people who would fight anything that uses concrete, power, and provides jobs, such as these two, and are at heart, Antifa types of Leftist scumbags with BLM, "In This Home", "Resist", and "Support Ukraine" signs on their front lawns:
"...This is the last wilderness on the East Coast,' said Marie Emerson, whose husband, Dell, is a longtime blueberry farmer and university research farm manager. The pair of them are against the scheme. Charlie Robbins, another local, told AP he was opposed to the plan. 'It's like putting the Eiffel Tower in the Maine wilderness,' he said. 'It's just different than my vision. I hunt and fish the area. I don't like the crowds. It's kind of selfish, but that's the way I feel.' Jeff Greene, a contractor and one of the town Select Board's three members, said the scale of the project took people aback. 'Most people were, let's say, shocked to see that it was that large,' he said...
In March, residents overwhelmingly approved a six-month moratorium on large developments to give the town time to develop the needed rules and regulations. Worcester himself has not commented on the controversy. But Peter Doak said he thought it was a good idea. He said he objected to one resident telling a town meeting she didn't like the idea of waking up each morning and looking out her window to see a giant flagpole. 'That didn't sit too well with me,' said Doak. 'To say that the flagpole with the United States flag on it is an eyesore, I don't particularly like it. But they don't mind looking out the window at cellphone towers or the windmills.' He added: 'Maybe one day we'll wake up to the hammer and sickle flying up there.'
That last part about the cellphone towers of windmills (and I should add, solar panel farms) is spot on.
The fact that there is very little there is why it doesn’t need a huge penis like structure jutting up from the earth.
One might think the people who live there might have a say.
