Nearly 200,000 flags have been placed on the National Mall ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration, signifying the tens of thousands of people who won't be able to attend this year's ceremony. The Presidential Inaugural Committee first announced plans to install the public art display, which has flags representing all the U.S. states and territories, on Jan. 11. The display was lit up Sunday evening. (Tweet/Photos) “This inauguration marks a new chapter for the American people — one of healing, of unifying, of coming together, of an America united,” said Tony Allen, CEO of the Presidential Inaugural Committee.
I thought that the 200k flags signified all the votes he got.

Flags that were just printed up just like the ballots for Bidet. Fake votes, fake attendees.

I've been flying an American flag on my house for many years. It will come down tomorrow morning, and will stay down as long as the country is held captive by Traitor Joe.

If the Biden installation is anything like other liberal events, the flags will be left lying on the ground like trash when this is over and attendees will walk on the flags on their way out. Of course, the flag poles will make for good window-smashing tools for the antifa types.

What a metaphor for the phantom election and the incoming Presider Over The Unbound Swamp (POTUS).

Why don't you put a few million up, for all the Americans who won't be around because they were murdered in an abortion? This is a new chapter alright, but not one of healing or unifying. They just permanently alienated 74 million of us, and we will never come together with them again. First they steal the election from us, then they silence us, then they threaten us. We are not an America united.

Wow, 200k United States flags-- made in China, right?! What a total waste of resources. 25 flags would've been plenty.

200,000 flags? Maybe I should take a knee. Isn’t that what we are supposed to do these days to be considered woke? Wait, I think I’ll stay in the locker room today. Bloody b*stards, these libs!

I won't take mine down #6, but I will attach a black "mourning ribbon" for the entire day.

Instead of all those flags, it should be a dozen cars representing all attendees at his rallies.

I want to know what he means by "one of healing, of unifying, of coming together, of an America united,"? No way are we going to accept this cheater and his concubine Cameltoe. An America united? Don't make me laugh!

You can fit more flags in the space than honking cars, so it makes sense. /s

Flags are great. Flags will make me look important. They flutter. They're nice. They don't think. They don't litter. Yay, flags. "Stand up, there, Mr. Flag. Oh, God love you. Never mind."

“Unite” the cheating old bastid says! well “unite this”.
I hate you and all your party. Me and mine will never unite with you commies. You are thieves and have no integrity. You steal and have no shame. You disgust me and I want to destroy you.
The sad fact is though, you’re on track to destroy me first. Just don’t forget what they say about cornered people and rats.

2020 is the strangest year I ever witnessed in all my 74 years (and it’s not just the COVID): Here is Joe Biden, a lifetime non-achiever (what does he has to show for his 47 years as senator?), who “wins” a non-election (C’mon man! How many people ACTUALLY voted for this total blank?), and now he is having a non-inauguration where instead of an “adoring” crowd, he gets made-in-China flags to stand for those who presumably could not attend. He has to know he is nothing compared to the real-deal best POTUS since Lincoln.
The strangest days of our lives. May God help us all in the next four years!

My American flag is at half staff in mourning for America. Going to stay that way until slo gropey joe and the mattressback ho are gone. Might even fly it upside down today to show my distress at these frauds being installed.

Just to hide all the empty spaces of those who don't care to attend. Conveniently hides the truth about this incoming administration too - a farce.

Those flags should be Red Chinese flags if they're to represent his voters.

Looks like Arlington Cemetery on Memorial Day.
But it has flags from all over the world, not just American?
What does that symbolize? Globalism?

Just think of all the children who are going hungry because some selfish person used the money to buy flags rather than feed hungry children.

I noticed that the article included a tweet from the "Biden Inaugural Committee" inviting donations to their "partner charities" to sponsor the flags.
I got a real good idea on who runs most of those "partner charities." You know, like the "Hunter Biden Adopt-a-Stripper" fund or the "Hunter Biden Crack-Pipe Replacement Fund." With 10% going to The Big Guy.

Didn't we just have a big kerfuffle over placing flags in Arlington? Flags for our fallen, controversial, flags for China Joe, no problem.

Please forgive second reply. I posted before reading the comments.
#6, my father in law flew his flag at half mast for the entire four years of the Carter administration. Perhaps you could do that. Or better yet, fly it upside down - that is the international symbol of distress. Mine currently has black mourning streamers attached to it.

Without the razor wire and the NG troops, they would still have had to fill in a significant space with flags. Most of the Biden votes are already shredded or exist in the artificial minds of Dominion machines. I am insulted that he is still permitted to use American flags.

Is all this business about not allowing crowds be a ploy to hide the country's lack of enthusiasm for this Pretender. He couldn't draw flies at his campaign events. Why should his coronation be any different?

Gee, that would be 5,000 flags for each person in this country that actually enthusiastically voted for Lyin' Joe Biden!!!
Creepy Uncle Joe Biden couldn't get 200,000 people to attend anything for him if he was giving out free money and marijuana!!!!
