I don’t understand this weird American obsession with flag. I was looking at some photos of Trump’s rallies. Flags everywhere - on shirts, hats, glasses etc. And this bizarre cult of the flag - “it cannot touch the ground” etc.

At the end of the day the flag is just a piece of cloth. If you worship any flag or take offense to any flag, you need to get a life.

    So a while ago an American who moved to the Netherlands asked about the proper way to store the Dutch flag.

    The consensus was: put in a little plastic bag from a supermarket and shove in the back of a random closet.
