This Week in Vexillology

Buonasera i miei amici!

This week, we have the flag of a man who liked to disturb the staff by running around the corridors waving mini versions of the flag below. Fortunately, he could pay for the experience.

Take a look at this bit of innovative democracy:

With a little less than a month remaining until the start of the Democratic National Convention, a coalition of individuals and several groups has launched an effort to stop Hillary Clinton from winning the party’s nomination.

What the MSM is ignoring.

Over the weekend I heard the headline "Hillary increases her lead over Donald Trump". I looked up to see if she had hit 60%, and Trump had dropped to the twenties, because he had had such a bad week.

Trump is not running ads, has had a terrible week, his campaign is in disarray, and Hillary can't even get to 50%.
