Cultists of the Oligarch. If Trusk Almighty doesn't tell them to do it, they don't do it.

This is my county and the only county executive in all of New York not to comply with this, which I noticed when I went to the park the other day. It’s so disrespectful. He is a disgrace. I called their office and they sent me to an answering machine twice now.

Ew. They appear to have forgotten that they're supposed to be civil servants.

He is getting a lot of anger on Twitter!

Good!! If even Twitter is lambasting him, maybe he'll get the picture that being blatantly unpatriotic isn't "cool"

We are a nation divided by politics, and Republicans have decided that the quickest way to fascism is to demonize the other side to the point of violence.

Just proves that this faction of our political system doesn’t want cooperation with over 48% of the population they demand capitulation. It is nothing less. It is time to educate the ignorant as we as a country are going to learn some hard lessons.

Feel free to do the patriotic thing and go lower it.
President Dwight Eisenhower
The flag should fly at half-staff for 30 days at all federal buildings, grounds, and naval
vessels throughout the United States and its territories and possessions after the death
of the president or a former president.
