Democrats are boasting that Jimmy Carter's death could overshadow Donald Trump's upcoming inauguration due to a long upheld tradition.
Standard protocol states that all flags should be flown at half mast at federal buildings for 30 days following the death of a former president.
Carter, the 39th U.S. President, died at 100 years old on Sunday afternoon, almost two years after entering hospice care and just 22 days before Trump's inauguration on January 20. Outspoken MAGA critics and Democrat voters have quipped that the half mast flags during such a pivotal moment are Carter's parting gift to Trump after their longstanding feud.

The half-staff flag simply symbolizes mourning. On January 20, the Dems will be mourning the end of their dynasty.

That would have zero impact on Trump’s inauguration. Such juvenile thinking.

Trump will get his revenge by denying half mast honors when Crazy Pelosi passes on during his presidency.

When Trump takes the oath of office and our Biden national nightmare is over, I don't really care where on the flagpole our flag flies.

President Trump's comments in the wake of peanut boys death have been very kind, classy, and gracious towards his family. If the marxicrat media collective wants to tear him apart for it, have at it. What he said is on record.

January 20th is a day of HOPE. I can not mourn for President Carter, he lived a very good long life and during his presidency he created a lot of hardship for many people.

#21, my late father in law did that every single day of the Carter presidency.
I doubt that there are many people who actually care about Carter dying. Half the country has no idea who he was and the other half remember his presidency with the opposite of fondness.

That is how the Democrats think: All feelings, appearances, and spin - no action or results needed.

I finally ran my flag back to full staff upon President Trump's election. My standard response to why it has flown at half staff since the Delaware dunce was selected was, I'm in mourning for my military and my country. And I believe the correct term is half staff, not half mast, unless you're on a naval vessel.

No matter where on the staff the flag is flying, Donald Trump will still be sworn in as President of the United States. The flag will still be flying and there will be much more pride in that flag starting January 20, 2025.

I find it a little humorous. If the shoe were on a different foot most of us would.
Other than democrats getting a kick out of it , it won't matter at all.
What is funny is that the second worst President got the flags at half staff for the leaving of the first worst President.

Since when has 'protocol' ever been something honored by democrats? Fly the flags at full staff and let the dems and their media Pravdas wail. They're always going to cry about something, anyway!

The only effect on the inauguration will be that it is a focus point for the propaganda media to babble about and trivialize themselves even further. No one listens to them anyway. This is a nothing burger.

"Trump will get his revenge by denying half mast honors when Crazy Pelosi passes on during his presidency."
Pelosi, Watters, Clyburn, McConnell...they should all start dropping like flies. No federal recognition. Send them back to their states to honor them.

I don't understand why she thinks this matters. In his inauguration speech, Trump may even include a nod to the flags and reference to Carter's passing. Also note the start of the attack campaign against DJT. His enemies are already grasping at straws trying to demean him.

As a country, we also used to have a tradition that people were not targeted for exercising their freedom of speech over politics. Then Jan. 6 happened, and today we have bona fide political prisoners rotting in a jail in DC. So one tradition was overturned. We can also overturn the tradition of flying flags at half-mast for a month -- this time for one of the worst failed presidents in history. Let FJB do the half-mast twist for 21 days, and that will be enough. I personally hope President Trump orders flags raised to full mast in his Inauguration speech.

As long as the USA flag is still waving, all is well.
The lowered flags for Jimmy won't matter......to MAGA people.
Just wait until the dems figure out that MLK Day is the same as PDT's Inauguration Day.
(MLK Day is liberal white guilt day when the guilty go clean the slums)

Democrats are so petty and vengeful. Since it will be the second Trump inauguration, I don't feel that it is as significant as the first. I will just be glad to have Trump back in office.

Sadly for him, Carter was not a friend to Israel.
He skipped that part of Scripture.
