Oh definitely! Plus, tons of people who don’t have a full-on flagpole still hang a flag outside their house at all times.

The people who live across from me put up a comically-tall flagpole after Trump won last year… the first flag on it was a Trump flag. They now have an American flag up all the time (and it’s currently at half mast).

They’re all totally bizarre. Rarely have bad Americans announced themselves so clearly, right in front of their houses.
