I hope you are setting them straight with the facts; likely won't work, but only facts in one's face can mirror their ignorance to them. I just checked Google and see the not-right-minded have begun new spin to refute fact checking Snopes.com.
Snopes.co, "The flag rumor, as is typical, went through multiple mutations as those who spread it repeatedly shifted the goalposts to try to keep up with the debunkings, moving it from "there are no flags (of any kind) at the DNC" to "there
were no flags at the DNC on Day 1" to "there were no
actual flags at the DNC on Day 1," to "there were no actual flags
on stage at the DNC on Day 1" to "there were no actual flags on stage at the DNC
for the entirety of Day 1" — and, as is also typical, we've continually modified our article to keep up with the shifting rumors."

anga Baba comment: The moving goal post and never stop lying echo chamber of the never-right-minded keeps lies alive for decades, without evidence- only spin.
Here is an essay that starts with the Watergate memory, but the big story is the now irrefutably proven crimes of Richard Nixon in 1968 when his team negotiated secretly with South Vietnam, behind President Johnson's back, while peace talks had begun with North Vietnam.
"There have long been rumors that the Nixon campaign ... open a back channel between Nixon’s campaign and the South Vietnamese government. ...any peace agreement with the North would likely undercut the Saigon government’s legitimacy... (Saigon thus) willing to block agreement on a bombing halt. ...there was no agreement, and Nixon won a narrow victory.
"Now, thanks to a
remarkable book by Ken Hughes, we know that the rumor is actually
incontestable fact. The author produces
archival evidence from the Johnson presidential library, intercepts from the FBI and NSA and the Johnson tapes themselves to demonstrate not only that
Nixon was conspiring with a foreign power to undermine US diplomacy (an act of treason on its face) but that Johnson knew it and concealed it — which is why most Americans don’t know it."
Republicans are actually traitors and anti-American*. They are not conservative, they are regressive.
They are actually anti-constitution. Reagan went behind Carter's back. House Republicans recently went behind President Obama's back.
*Yes, I know, proud party of the penny man and all that un-updated resume rot.
However that glory is gone, changed with Johnson and the Civil and Voting Rights laws and Nixon's racist southern strategy At that time, the Republican Party became the party of the rich using their new racist base. Soon the evangelical, 'roll it all back to Leviticus and Deuteronomy' dudes joined the party base, wisely infiltrating the government from the bottom up.
Presently the rich have lost control, even as it seems that the rich have dropped the pretense of front men and are running their own.
Google the story of Bush's firing all 50 States Attorneys General (that's how Christie got his AG job), and filling the Justice department with Liberty University grads.
