We could not have predicted what happened next, John...

Weakness, chaos, and symbols.


When we released "Flag of Treason," we could not have imagined the next day
would feature dual dangers of Trump on full display.

 

First, the coward hid in his bunker tweeting out weak, petty insults and
obsessing over his poll numbers.

 

Then, he gave an alarming speech threatening unconstitutional military action
on U.S. citizens.

 

After the speech, he sent the Secret Service and military police to fire
rubber bullets and tear gas at peaceful protesters just so he could have a
contrived photo-op. Holding a Bible. In front of a church.

 

Let that sink in, John.

 

Donald Trump hijacked the symbol of a faith he can't comprehend—one of
nonviolence and sacrificial love—to justify violence and silence his critics.

 

"I just can't believe what my eyes have seen," said the bishop of that church,
on CNN. Those peaceful protestors "are rightfully demanding an end to400 years
of systemic racism and white supremacy in our country."

 

Here's "Flag of Treason" in case you missed it:

John, this moment is swarming with symbols, so let's be clear about something:
symbols matter—perhaps more so in politics than in any other domain.

 

The American flag is the ultimate symbol of the principles and democratic
ideals upon which our Republic rests—including the principle ofequal justice
under the law.

 

The Confederate flag stands for treason, disunion, and the subjugation of
Black Americans.

 

It is a blatant symbol of hate flown by some of Donald Trump's most zealous
supporters.One he still refuses to condemn.

 

Now is a time for choosing, John.

 

🇺🇸 We're with America.
