"While we honor the service of a former President, we must also celebrate the service of an incoming President and the bright future ahead for the United States of America.”
Will other Republican Governors join him?

Not a slap at Trump

It is so obvious Biden ordered 30 days to half mast Trump.
This is a good move. Good for Texas. Now watch Biden's DOJ sue him for usurping federal law orders of a President.

It’s not. Completely standard for former POTUS’ death.

Good for him, standing up to Biden.

Holy shite. Yall are so emotional.

Does Louisiana's flag order of half mast still stand by the 20th for the victims of the NOLA terror attack? If so, I think that's more important than showing support for Trump. We all know Louisiana and Jeff Landry like Trump.

That’s fine. 30 days of flags at half-staff is still standard.

You’re dealing with people who think Biden ordered the flags to half-staff as a slight against Trump. I wouldn’t worry about.

I DON'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH DOING THIS FOR ONE DAY THEN RETURN TO THE ORDERED 30.
quote:I think it was in our history some where...That when this happened--- for the inauguration they raised the flag for a few hours.
According to a proclamation signed by then-President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1954, because Carter is a former president, flags are to remain at half-staff for 30 days from the day of Carter’s death.
This is the longest period possible for the flags to fly at half-staff, reserved for the death of the sitting president or former presidents, per the proclamation.
Should the sitting vice president, chief justice (current or retired) of the Supreme Court, or the sitting speaker of the house die, flags would be ordered to half-staff for 10 days from the day of death.
