On Monday, there were no American flags to be seen in the Democratic National Convention hall.
On Tuesday — after much criticism and derision — the DNC placed six flags on the main stage, but off to the sides.
Today, they apparently have a new-found — or perhaps forced — sense of patriotism: the flags are front and center.
WABC video shows crews moving the flags from the wings of the stage to the middle, right behind the podium:

Will they remain there? Or will the anti-American leftists force them to the fringes tonight? We’ll see.
But at this rate, Hillary Clinton will be wearing an American flag pant suit tomorrow night.
Eric Trump noted Monday’s lack of flags:

There was, however, a Palestinian flag:

On Tuesday, the Daily Caller reported DNC crews hastily added flags to the side of the stage:
