Not really, no. The problem is that the flag is the symbol of the country, above anything and everything else. All we have are a piece of paper (the Constitution) and a piece of cloth (the flag) to unite us, so they’ve both, historically, been extremely central to US identity.
The best I could offer is that you ‘average’ American doesn’t own an American flag, though they might own something with the design of the flag on it. If you see an American flag flying on a pole outside of someone’s house - especially one in tatters - that’s generally a bad sign. If someone has a flag hanging on the wall inside the house - especially in accordance with the flag code - that’s usually not a bad sign. At least in my experience.

And it’s fair to say that if you’re flying a flag on a car then they’re probably also conservatives
