The act of political commentary didn't go over well with the neighbors.

In a video taken by SF Chronicle reporter Michael Bodley and posted on Twitter, the homeowner explained to a neighbor that it was a "comment on our new president elect." He compared Trump to Il Duce, the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, "but the Italians did not have as good of a flag."

The flag was supposed to be a political statement about life in the Donald Trump era, but neighbors weren't fond to see the Nazi flag, even if the homeowner claimed to detest Trump.
