In yet another example of its extremist partisan agenda the Trump White House is under fire today for its attempt to co-opt Flag Day by making it all about President Donald Trump. The official Twitter account of the White House posted a photo of the President literally hugging the American flag, with the words “Flag Day, June 14” emblazoned next to Trump.
