The photo does not show a flag without stars. A reverse image search generates the original photo from Getty Images, stating the photo is from Trump’s Sept. 17 rally in Youngstown, Ohio at the Covelli Centre. The stars can be seen, but in a silver-type of fabric instead of the usual white color. In addition, a photo of the flag displayed at the rally appeared in an article from The Washington Post highlighting Republican Ohio Senate candidate, J.D. Vance. The photo also features the stars, albeit a little more clearly. Trump campaigned in support of Vance at the rally, the outlet reported. There are no credible news reports to support the claim. Likewise, there is no evidence of the claim on Trump’s TRUTH Social profile . Check Your Fact has contacted a Trump spokesperson for comment and will update this piece accordingly if one is received.
