Jimmy Carter passed away two weeks ago at the age of 100. Colors across the country, including in Washington, D. C., and Florida’s position cash, remain at half-staff in Carter’s respect. The flags must be there for a month following a president’s death, according to tradition. Joe Biden, senator, and governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL ) ordered all flags to be lowered through Jan. 28.
Trump has complained that the flags will remain half-staff in the days leading up to and during his opening the following year because he was critical of Carter while campaigning for a second term and offered words of praise to the former president after his death.
Following Biden’s symbol authority, Trump wrote on Truth Social that” the Democrats are all’ ecstatic’ about our beautiful American Flag possibly being at ‘ half pole’ during my Inauguration”.
” In any event, because of the demise of President Jimmy Carter, the Flag perhaps, for the first time ever during an Commencement of a potential President, remain at half mast”, Trump continued. No one wants to see this, and no American may be happy about it, they say. Let’s see how it plays up. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN”!
A Trump director was reached for comment by The Washington Examiner.
Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX ) opted to raise the flags all the way across Texas on Monday. In a statement, Abbott expressed his gratitude for Carter’s services, saying,” We may also recognize the accomplishments of an incoming president and the promising future for the United States of America.”

On the eve of Trump’s service, the Village People did perform” America the Stunning” by Carrie Underwood, and on the day of the ceremony, there will be a performance by the Village People.
