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.

      wow. You are not a native English speaker at all, are you?

      “Shown” in this context means “expressed”.

      It’s painfully obvious you’ve never been to the USA.

        You:

        “Jeezus Christ English is hard.”

        Also you:

        “wow. You are not a native English speaker at all, are you?”

        Hilarious, keep talking.

        I need to learn more from your superior command of the language.
