Didn’t put it up again until 2020.

It hasn’t been up since he’s returned, but I will fly it again the day he dies.

Not proudly, like I did when I first retired, glad to be an American and thankful for my fellow Americans. Half of America is populated by evil trolls apparently. Not as trusting of my fellows any more.
