Gov. Josh Stein's office told WRAL News the flag has since been removed.

    Could we just one time have some event in DC with MAGA people where a Confederate loser flag doesn’t show up?

      The venn diagram between the two groups is a circle, so probably not

      It really amazes me that the guys who say party of Lincoln are also flying the flag of the country that fought Lincoln.

        Not only that, the flag that LOST to Lincoln. It’s some bizzare history cuck dom-sub thing. I don’t get it.

        That’s because they took the party to shit over it with their racism. Of course, the idiots haven’t caught on that Lincoln was a progressive, which are Democrats, but then, they wouldn’t be idiots.

      Can’t we just get rid of the MAGA people instead?

        I’m sure they could be useful doing manual labor.

          Nah, just deport them. Preferably somewhere off-planet.

        Why do either when you can do both?

          If you’re doing both, you’re doing either.

      Maybe have a booth with a Confederate flag on one end and a Union flag in the other with a torch sitting in between. Have a sign saying “BURN ONE. SALUTE THE OTHER.” I’d love to see what they’d do.
