I saw this twice on I-20 south of Dallas/Ft Worth yesterday. Once was at a Ford dealership. While I think that by our flag protocol the display was probably correct, it still surprised me to see it.

Virtue signaling pure and simple.

The idea of putting it up probably came from a lady living with 12 cats who drives by herself in a Prius wearing a mask.

Exactly.

I’m not a fan of all the drama and symbolism over substance that we see in our country today.

It’s the cool thing to do now days.

Yes, the American flag should be on the “speaker’s right or the viewer’s left.

So what happens when you walk over to the other side and then view the OUTDOOR, PERMANENTLY PLACED flagpoles from the opposite direction? Are you going to move the flags?

National flags should be displayed at the same level which these are.
