    I understand why Trump would be in frame, but not why the flag would be in the same spot AND upside-down.

    If the flagpole fell in the confusion, that could explain it being upside-down but not in frame.

    If the flag were already there, that would explain it being in frame but not upside-down.

    It all seems too coincidental.

      this reads like conspiratorial thinking tbh. Its easy to grab at the idea that this is somehow Trump’s doing, but things like this do sometimes happen

        I so desperately want it to be revealed to be a conspiracy because it would further discredit Trump. But I know it isn’t, which is so utterly terrifying for our democracy.

      It’s not upside down, but I agree that it sure looks planned. Somehow every fucking situation that could sink trump always happens to help him.
