Oddly, they designed a brand new one, instead of just using the 1959 version.

And they will only use it if specifically Idaho stops being a state.

Wwll yeah, there is another, different design with 49 stars if Missouri suddenly disappears. Why would you use the Idaho design for that?

if where disappears? i don't know that place.

This is definitely a fake quote.

If Idaho suddenly disappeared, nobody would even notice ("♫but if you close your eyes...♫") thus making a new flag unnecessary. It's clearly another state they're concerned about disappearing.
