It was a fashion misstatement during Friday's White House press briefing. Or was it a message???? ??????
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer checked in with the press for his usual session while unknowingly wearing his American flag lapel pin upside down.

And so did the press crew. Someone, who was reportedly former Apprenticecontestant and Trump aide Omarosa Manigault, dropped off a note to the podium.

Finally John Roberts from Fox News let Spicer know, "You pin's upside down." This led to some awkward chuckles and Spicer's retort, "John Roberts, always helping with the fashion tips." But the only thing was the pin still hadn't been righted yet. As someone else yelled from the audience, "It's still upside down."
Finally the pin was in its proper position when someone threw out, "House of Cards!" to which Spicer assured the White House was not giving any promos for the Netflixseries. The show's opening credits feature an upside down American flag.
The moment was thoroughly analyzed on Twitter, with many concerned Spicer was sending a cry for help. Others quickly made the House of Cards connection.
Sean Spicer's flag pin was just upside down.
