The Patriotic demonstration leading up to the American federal election, I’d sort’a expected to see more American flags, or is that a Trump campaign thing?

On the third night of the
Democratic national convention, the group Muslim Women for Harris released a statement announcing that it was disbanding in response to the Harris-Walz campaign’s refusal to allow a Palestinian person to speak on the main stage.
The statement was released as members of the Uncommitted National Movement, which won 30 delegates to the convention, and their supporters held a sit-in outside of the convention.
Ilhan Omar joined the demonstration for some time, and
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called in to the sit-in via FaceTime. The sit-in came after the anti-war group was told a Palestinian person would not be allowed to speak on the main stage – until then, whether or not such a speech would happen was up in the air.
During the sit-in, Muslim Women for Harris pulled their support for the Democratic nominee.
Do you think they’ll switch their flags to American & support over to Trump? Somehow I’m not picturing that.
Group says Harris campaign denying a Palestinian speaker at the Democratic convention is a ‘terrible message’

“We cannot in good conscience continue Muslim Women for Harris-Walz, in light of this new information from the Uncommitted movement, that VP Harris’ team declined their request to have a Palestinian American speaker take the stage at the DNC,”
the group’s statement reads.
Are the Muslim Women for Harris/Walz & the Uncommitted Voters Movement gonna vote for some third party?
