My point is that its a lot worse desecration when you put trump on it.

(128,907 posts)5. OK, good point. I'm not watching that mess of a speech
so I didn't know he was off on that. I guess the First Amendment isn't something he's familiar with, or Texas v. Johnson. Putting Trump's ugly orange face on a flag is pretty much the equivalent of using it for toilet paper.

waves a picture of you and your Trumpflag in your face. Because you know that within five years of Donnie Dumbfuck being out of office most of these cretins are going to pretend the damage he caused had nothing to do with them.
