>show they were present for both Day 1 and Day 2

The only flag ever on stage day 1 was the color guard, who left with it.

Other pictures from "day one" are actually from day 2. Even politifact admitted that they were over compensating on day 2 after Trump called them out on Twitter the evening of day 1.

There are literally videos of the entirety of Day 1 that show several American flags and people in the audience with flag paraphernalia.

Being willfully ignorant is not an excuse here.

The claim was flags on the stage. Not some audience member with a lapel.

They were added the next day, after being called out.
