It's said that some scientists from the CDC were trying to

explain to Trump about the epicenter of the virus, to which Trump supppsedly replied "Yeah, the Epicenter. I know that place. That's where Mickey Mouse is".

Probably apocryphal but it still fits. In the words of another DUer, "If Trump had a brain he'd take it out and play with it".

We are well and truly fucked with this 'leeadership'.

Stupid question

I try and keep up with political trends, with particular interest on what our 'friends' in RW La La land are doing but I have to admit something I saw yesterday has me stumped:

Driving in the Tampa Bay area I was passed by the usual Billy Bob in his coal-rolling, no muffler pickup. Nothing particularly special about that here in central Florida. But what has me puzzled is a huge flag he was flying from the tailgate. It was the American flag but all red removed and instead some black and some blue stripes.

Will someone be kind enough to put me out of my misery and explain the "significance" of this flag?
