An American flag display blew over today behind Democratic Pennsylvania Senate nominee John Fetterman as he introduced former President Barack Obama at a rally.
The incident was captured from multiple angles as one Twitter user shared a video that showed it occurred, right when Fetterman introduced Obama as a “sedition-free” president.
“You can’t even make this stuff up,” he pointed out.
Right when Fetterman introduces Obama as a "sedition free" president, all the American flags fall over. You can't even make this stuff up.

Another video that was clearer shared by “RNC Research” shows the flags falling over and then Fetterman continuing to speak.
“I’m running to serve Pennsylvania,” Fetterman declared in the clip.
“RNC Research” quipped of the incident, “John Fetterman’s rally is off to a great start…”
Donald Trump Jr. shared the clip in a quote tweet and described it as, “The perfect metaphor for Fetterman’s campaign.”

Fetterman shared a picture of himself previously with Obama in a tweet yesterday ahead of the rally.
“We are *so* honored + excited to welcome President @BarackObama to PA. Throwback to when I dressed up (wore pants) to meet him,” Fetterman said.
Fetterman then urged, “RSVP for tomorrow and see which one of us has aged better (it’s him).”
