Disgraceful’: Donald Trump Ridiculed for Signing American Flag During September 11 Anniversary:

A clip appearing to show Donald Trump signing his name on an American flag has gone viral as people call him out for seemingly violating the U.S. Flag Code.

In a clip posted on X by Patriot Takes, an account that describes itself as promoting “dedicated research monitoring and exposing right-wing extremism and other threats to democracy,” the former president can be seen writing what appears to be his signature with a black marker on the fabric.Around a table, a number of members of the public stand holding the flag down as Trump scribbles along one of its white stripes.Patriot Takes told Newsweek that the video was posted by Margo Martin, Trump’s deputy director of communications, on her Instagram story. The purported post has since expired and Newsweek was unable to verify it.

The clip has accumulated almost a million views since it was posted on September 12, 2024, the day after the former president attended a commemoration of the September 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City. The post implied the footage was taken during the anniversary of September 11, although Newsweek was unable to verify when the video was filmed.

According to section 8 of the U.S Flag Code, “The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.” Trump have denied any wrong doing.
