Trump Flies US Flag at Full Mast During Carter’s Mourning Period
Following former President Carter’s death, flags at Mar-a-Lago were initially lowered to half-staff but have since been raised to full-staff, despite official directives from President Biden and Governor DeSantis to maintain half-staff through January 28th. This action contradicts the established mourning period and comes after Trump expressed displeasure with the timing. Texas Governor Abbott conversely ordered state flags to be at full-staff on Inauguration Day, prioritizing the celebration of the incoming president. Trump previously offered condolences for Carter, attending his funeral services.
