President Donald Trump paused to give the American flag a hug after giving a speech to business owners on Tuesday.

​The president, clapping as he walked off the stage at the ​National Federation of Independent Business to the Rolling Stones’ “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” opened his arms wide as he came to the flag and then hugged it.

​It’s not the first time Trump has taken the flag in his arms.

He did it during a Tampa rally in October 2016 and in New Hampshire in August 2015.

The president has been feuding with NFL players for not standing when the national anthem is played before games, saying they are disrespecting the flag.
