Why is Trump defending the Confederate flag? Seems like a loser issue.

He is not defending the Confederate Flag qua Confederate Flag. He is defending free speech. If we always concede a piece to the anti-cultural apparatchiks, it will then be former slave-holders, then white men in general, etc., and then everyone who is not them. The Antifa folks have already more than telegraphed it. We can't say, take down Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee, but leave Washington and Lincoln alone. And it would be wrong even if we could. They were great men, long recognized as such by cultured peoples throughout the world.
