A guy in my in-laws’ neighborhood flies it, I know what it is. - I don’t think Trump is in touch with most Trumpites’ normal lives. But I was actually trying to give him some rational defense there.

Now...all of a sudden...EVERYONE knows about the "Blue Line" flag....yet not one comment that if President' Trump was attempting to color a "Blue Line" flag, he was doing it wrong.

god...it must really suck to be on the Left!

I don't think I have ever seen a red line on a blue line flag before.  Your defense is ridiculous.

if he had begun by coloring the first line black....would we have heard about it?

What a bunch of goofs!

I don't think I would have posted this thread if he went ...

  • black
  • white
  • black
  • white
  • black
  • white
  • black
  • blue
But he went...

  • red
  • white
  • white
  • blue

Who didn’t know about it?  People just rightfully knew that wasn’t what Trump was doing.

This claim that he was doing that is just ridiculous and you know it.

Why do you do nothing but troll every day Opie?

There wasn't a comment that he was trying to draw a blue line flag because he wasn't, he was coloring the American flag wrong.

Holy Desecration of the United States Flag, batman.  That is horrible.  Why do people desecrate the flag like that?  Do they hate America?  Do they hate veterans?  I don't understand why anyone would be so insensitive as to appropriate the flag of the United States of America - for their own purpose.  Its disgusting.

Why do you assume he is trolling?

Could it be he really thinks this way and is defending his views.  I mean these types of people do exist, look at the president.

 
And even if Trump hates America,

[Narrator: "Trump does hate America"]

He can't even get the "Thin Blue Line" Flag correct - he is desecrating a desecration.

 
Hey...if all you have against President Trump today is that he can't color as good as past presidents....have at it.

Anything that keeps the Left happy in their little world is a GOOD thing.

You all play nice now.

Now I beleive you are saying this in tongue and cheek, but having grown up with the "blue line flag" and the "thin red line flag" I don't agree with this.

No schtick - it is sacrilegious to appropriate the US flag for any other purpose.

I like my American flags to be properly displayed, in their correct form, from flag poles or on bikinis of honeys,.  I do not like them altered otherwise.  

Was going to post some images, but then I remembered the policy.

Please tell me that this is just another shot at President Trump.

You cannot tell me that have never heard of the Blue Line Flag.

Well...given the present company...it isn't all that far fetched that you haven't.

...any opportunity.

"The Thin Blue Line American Flag serves as a testament to the valor of police officers across the country. The courage exhibited by officers in the line of duty is represented by the Thin Blue Line running through the center of the flag. The solemn black background acts as a memorial to the lives lost while shielding citizens from anarchy. Together, this flag is a stunning memento; perfect for showing support to Law Enforcement Officers everywhere. By displaying the Thin Blue Line American Flag, you are making a contribution to the families of police and offering your unwavering support to our brothers and sisters in blue."

I don't think that anything about the incident is a story, but come on bro.  I guess I have to give you credit for creativity.

Because he pops into these threads every day...makes some statement like this (or his work in the Manafort thread) gets his reaction, then forgets it and bolts to start over again.

What's really hilarious, and sad, are the people trying to defend Trump for some reason.  You're trashing others for supposedly not knowing the Thin Blue Line America Flag but don't acknowledge the fact that Trump isn't actually coloring it that way.  (Red, White, White, Blue is not related to any version of the flag)  Either Trump is a complete moron and doesn't know how to color the Thin Blue Line Flag the proper way or he's just a moron coloring the flag randomly.  Either way he's a moron.

I agree that this is a pretty insignificant thing Trump did but it is pretty comical and worth making fun of him for.

 
Holy cow, the Trump guys are now trying to claim that Trump was actually drawing the "Thin Blue Line" flag?

Even though Trump's flag contains a RED stripe, whereas the Thin Blue Line flag traditionally has BLACK stripes?

Even through Trump's flag has a blue line ON THE SIDE of the canton, whereas the Thin Blue Line flag has the blue line UNDER the canton?

Good lord. It took you a week to come up with that story??? That's just sad.

How does that help?   Trump's flag vs (best case) Thin Blue Flag

Wait, we have multiple USA flags?  Like home and away? Is there a third "alternate" flag in hot pink, purple, or neon green?

...or...did he go

  • Red
  • White
  • not colored yet
  • blue
?

Lets actually try to use your way of thinking here.  What exactly would he be trying to recreate by coloring the flag in that order?  We already know it's not the American Flag because of the blue stripe.  We already know it's not the Thin Blue Line flag because, once again, the blue line is wrong.  What would it be?  He's either coloring it randomly because he's having fun with the children or he's a complete moron.  I don't think there is anything in between.
