    Not what he said. But if he did so what?

    What would you think about a bunch of Iranians burning the flag here on US soil?

    I would be disappointed and understand that while I disagree, they have a right to do it.

    Zero cares given about Americans flag burning, no matter where their parents were from. A foreign national burning an American flag in the United States, particularly from a country that we know sponsors terrorism, would definitely cause me to be interested in them. I would make sure their papers are in order and perhaps just deport them anyway for being hostile foreign nationals. Visitation and immigration are not rights.

    If you're upset by people kneeling for the anthem, but not upset by your president refusing to even acknowledge that Russians were paying for kids defending that flag, and the actual country it flies for, then you've got issues.

    I'd think that's the first taste of political freedom they ever had and thank goodness we live in a country where we can burn the American flag if we so choose.

    Not sure why you want to make the US more like Iran.
