Mourning for Jimmy Carter or Democrat conspiracy? Trump slams Biden for half-mast flags!
As the United States bids farewell to its 39th president, Jimmy Carter, US President-elect Donald Trump in a post on Truth Social insinuated that keeping the flag at half-mast during his inauguration was a conspiracy by Democrats.
Donald Trump on Saturday (Jan 4) slammed US President Joe Biden’s administration for its order to keep flags across the country at ‘half-mast’ in mourning over the death of former
President Jimmy Carter.
As it is customary, Biden has ordered that flags across the country remain at half-staff for 30 days, which means that the American flag will remain at half-mast when Trump takes office. The US flag code details half-staff procedures, notably including 30 days for deceased current or former presidents.
Expressing his anger, US President-elect Trump in a post on Truth Social said that this is a conspiracy by the Democrats and said that “no American can be happy about this”. His post comes at a time when the United States is bidding farewell to its 39th President Jimmy Carter.
What PresidentTrump said:
Trump on his social media platform alleged that Democrats were “all giddy” that “our magnificent American Flag potentially being at ‘half-mast’ during my Inauguration.”
Painting the mourning custom as something of a conspiracy by his predecessor, he alleged, “They think it’s so great, and are so happy about it because, in actuality, they don’t love our Country, they only think about themselves.”
“Look at what they’ve done to our once GREAT America over the past four years – It’s a total mess!”
“In any event, because of the death of President Jimmy Carter, the Flag may, for the first time ever during an inauguration of a future President, be at half-mast. Nobody wants to see this, and no American can be happy about it. Let’s see how it plays out,” he added.
