As you can imagine this is all over the news in the mainstreahaha ha ha ha ah just kidding. So far the only cable coverage has been on Fox News. Of course, this reminds us of the 2008 DNC where any kind of flag was hard to find. You know, until we found them.
For the Democrats reading this, an excerpt from USA.gov:

BUT...they got the ethnicity correct and skin color trumps all.
Melanin alone can turn an ignorant, arrogant, clueless community organizer into the most powerful man in the world.
Hurrah for the Red, Black and Brown!

I expect this. It is all standard issue incrementalism.
I also expect no one in the opposition party to make the stink it deserves simply because there is no opposition party to said incrementalism.

Sure they know! For them it’s a large rectangle devoid of embellishments and a uniformly achromatic fabric. It is one that J.F’n Kerry and the French are intimately familiar.

It’s bunting, red, white, and blue bunting. And Republicans and Conservatives are making stupid fools of themselves over this.
