Donald Trump’s administration on Saturday was accused of promoting the Russian flag, on Flag Day.

The Department of Defense over the weekend wished social media a “Happy Flag Day!”

“Let us honor the emblem of our nation and the stars and stripes that unite us all. As we display our nations flag and reflect on the values it represents, let’s celebrate the freedom, courage and resilience that makes our country great,” the department stated Saturday.

The image attached to the post included two small images that appear to represent the Russian flag.

    Its in the wrong order. Red and white are always supposed to touch. Blue separating them is in the wrong spot. Whether intentional or because they’re all idiots? Who can say.

      red and white together would just look like a red bar and a white bar offset. it needs the blue between them to make visual sense. or i guess they could have used a different blue instead of a negative space
