Trump wants to criminalize flag-burning. Here’s why that’s un-American.

Why Troubling News:

The problem with this article is how there is a difference in reaction between Trump and Harris on this topic but is overblown by the author. Trump might have gone overboard with saying that those burning flags should go to jail. However, both he and Harris publicly agree that flag burning should not be done. They tie the idea of banning flag burning to a more extreme case of a man in Hong Kong getting in trouble for covering his ears during the Chinese national anthem. Strong comparisons such as this are unnecessary and serve as a form of fear-mongering that should not be in news reporting.
