If one wants to be truly pedantic, a flag is only at half-mast if it's on a ship. Otherwise, it's half-staff. That said, everyone knows what it means either way. LOL
we are a third world country and its hard to accept. we have wealth and military might but we are run by the rich and incompetent assholes that con the masses gladly
Yes. This is not how grown ups behave. It’s not how mature responsible teenagers behave. It’s not how toddlers with good manners behave. It’s not how babies who have just learned how to treat their grandparents behave. This person has the moral backbone of a wet pancake. I’m ignoring the tantrums.
I mean, he also doesn’t really deserve full staff since he is a convicted felon. In my view, this ain’t just about Carter, this is also about the horrible choice for the next US president. Plus, it’ll only be half-staff until after the 28th. I still welcome Trump though, he has some good ideas.
Meanwhile, my son will be turning his flag upside-down (but still at half mast) on inaugeration day... "because the Constitution, our independence, and all Americans will be in distress until Trump is removed from power".
I am sincerely hoping his narcissistic behavior renders him unable to do most of the truly evil shit has has courted or planned because he is triggered and chasing people to make sure he does not "look bad" to the average person...
He is petty but also I can see his point. For him and the people who voted for him it’s a joyous occasion. It’s jarring for them that the flag will be at half mast. We can concede this point even if we find him detestable.
Sorry, I respectfully disagree…”it’s jarring for them” is a silly reason for not being comfortable with properly honoring a deceased President…to be upset about it is indeed petty, but not surprising.
He hates hates hates that Carter is spoken of in respected, loving terms. In his eyes, what did Carter get out of building houses for the poor?? In his worldview, Carter is a loser. Trump doesn't understand how giving service works *at all* and why people laud Carter for his. It hurts his brain.
He does, but he's basically a walking ID. All devouring desire (for attention, adoration) and no higher function. His narcissism exists to protect his ID from accountability or empathy. So being confronted by someone who values service...McCain, or John Kelly's son, or Carter and HfH...it breaks him
Hence his incessant mocking (of military sacrifice or altruistic service), because if his narcissism ever slipped and he realized what a PoS he really was, it would end his mind. That's the core definition of narcissistic personality disorder. It's a broken mind's extreme defense mechanism.
Oops! I knew it’s half-staff. I made a boo boo.
I won’t be surprised if the Orange Menace orders all flags returned to full-staff after his inauguration 😡
another four years of this narcissistic baby is just going to be so damn painful. absolutely no guardrails this time. trump voters and those that stayed home, thanks for this absolute nightmare we will ALL endure.
I actually think they will pull the 25th on him. the tech bros want jd. they just used trump and his base. jd is dangerous too but I don’t think he could keep the cult following trump has bc he’s too polished. so maybe it could be a good thing!?
That's what I keep saying! People in agony because OMG he might run again in 2028 and I'm like, Have you SEEN Trump lately? He's starting to look like one of the doomed pirates in Curse of the Black Pearl, no matter how hard they try to clean him up!
If he is alive, he's likely to run in 2028. And, as noted, you'd better hope he is alive, because JD Vance isn't as stupid as Trump is.
Now, despite Trump being a complete moron, his cabinet may demolish Democracy in the next two years, and in that case, it doesn't matter if he runs or not.
Honestly? Between JD, Musk and Moses, I think it would be like a remake of a Three Stooges feature: gross, but funny if you have that kind of sense of humor.
Funniest part is that incompetent pathetic orange dictator wannabe Moron TRAITOR thinks he can just decree that flags be raised BEFORE he is sworn in. Hilarious 😂
Don't just share on this forum. Tell someone in DC what you think about any issue that is important to you. It only takes a few minutes and best of all..it doesn’t cost any money.
We don’t need money in politics. We just need people to participate.
Seems very appropriate to mourn the passing of a REAL Christian, former president and the next four years of hell with total morons and criminals in charge
Another fucking trap. He made this a "controversy" so the news would be about HIM and "will they or won't they fly the flag high" for his inauguration. I bet Congress will make an exception. But with the questions, the pundits, the build-up, the memory of a former President is lost. "Now back to me"
Everything has to be about him. He will spend the next four years trash talking everyone…even his own country. The orange dictator needs publicity. He will always want to have the last word.
Pretty sure his first order will be to raise the flag to full staff to celebrate his inauguration and the dawning of a new, glorious day in America unless someone with sense talks him out of it. What are the chances?
Already planning on it. I have no desire whatsoever to watch the news for the next for years due to the fact that I abhore Convicted Felon Trump's voice. 🤮
That is Trumpelstiltskin's Right brain. The guy's left brain has the lobes of money typical of Greed, interspersed with and connected to additional large segments of ME.
It's just awful. Jimmy Carter deserves the full 30 day mourning period out of respect regardless of anything else happening in that time frame. The orange one is too insecure to even be able to show respect. Deplorable.
I'm shocked but not surprised that the megalomaniac would stoop that low. He's so paranoid that any event, circumstance or news that's not about him is a conspiracy to damage him.
I don't think there's any "stooping" involved. He is constructed that low. I've often said I hope however/whenever his demise occurs I pray it does not consume all of whatever organic material he is constructed of, so a DNA analysis can be done. I suspect the anomalies will prove instructive.

Rally today to force Congress to take their oath seriously regarding the 14th Amendment section 3 to disqualify Trump from taking office! They were elected to uphold the Constitution of the United States and they need to be held accountable and take action now! https://www.youtube.com/live/IPjJxJoe1JI?si=gCYoaOTGEH6yHqbS
Neighbor flew a POW MIA flag for yrs. Last fall it came down &was replaced w/ a trmp flag. 2 ?s: How does anyone's values change so drastically overnight? And why do trmpers feel the need to fly a flag? Used to be confined to yard signs &bumper stickers. Now they treat it like its a football team.
He's an empty hollow husk...a truly evil man. He must have suffered an indescribable, terrible childhood. What kind of person votes for such a man?
TAX THE RICH
WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER💙👍😍☮️💪
STAY POSITIVE ... NEVER GIVE UP
It’s worse. It’s an indication that Trump has no idea of the depth of responsibility of the US presidency. Instead of seeing the flags flying at half-staff as representation of a nation’s gratitude to a great man for service to our nation, he sees it as a symbol of a nation that hates him. Tragic!
Mourning for President Carter, flying our Flag at half mast for our Country’s loss, is something trump and his people will never understand…
Trump doesn’t have the capacity for empathy or honor… IMO 🤦♀️😖
As soon as I read that the flag would be at half mast at the time of Trump’s inauguration I knew he was going to be pissed. I wouldn’t be surprised if he orders the flags all the way up the the next day.
Biomimicry, denoting DJT's fly flying at half mast through his Inauguration. They are going to have to bring out those dark tarps with (Capless) MAGAs painted on them.
EO on day one:
"Flying the flag of our great country at half-staff when a new POTUS is elected diminishes the office, BTW, would you like a new pair of $400 golden sneakers or perhaps I can interest you in an autographed buy-bull. "
The reelection of a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, insurrectionist, Putin's puppet and a pathological liar diminishes us on the world stage. They already knew he's a leaking asshole.
And Biden probably knew it would trigger him. As Merchan must have known that Trump taking the Oath of Office as a convicted felon would also bother him...
Pretty self-absorbed..considering you may have ZERO knowledge that the flag you are complaining about is on a building & not a ship.. 🤷🏼♀️but hey .. he’s ignorant as hell anyway couldn’t expect anything better..
I hope that so few dignitaries and general public show up to this Inauguration that spinning attendance numbers will be impossible. Let the first thing Trump receives on his big day be an undeniable insult.
Trump is an incredibly spoiled brat who refuses to acknowledge something so American, decent, and caring as the half-mast flag in honor of the death of President Jimmy Carter. Carter is loved and appreciated for his service to All Americans. Something that Trump will never be loved for. Sad.
How amazing with his final breath, Jimmy Carter managed 1 last fuck you to the 🍊 💩 ?Carter was the only president with the balls to say Russia and trump stole the 2016 election. Courage is rare in politics. I’m proud to say I’m DAMN SURE gonna be in mourning on January 20,2025 😢
After all these years hearing from him, seeing him on TV in a stupid fucking t. V show we know, we know what he's like. I'm sick of fucking hearing about it. Aren't you? I mean, jesus christ, we know he's a narcissistic asshole, i'm just tired of him aren't you
Just remember one thing the hippies used to be super liberal yet out of the hippies, a lot of them became conservatives as they got older, it's inevitable

Gently down the stream
Merrily merrily merrily merrily
Life is but a dream🎶
We always use the term half-mast.
Just saying
Always needs a pat on the back to motivate him!
A small, insecure, easily manipulated man child.

Go ahead and involve the 25th, JD. The next election should be AMAY-zing.
GODDAMMIT AUTOCORRECT!

We're about to experience "Unfettered Trump" for the next 4 years and it will be unrelentingly horrific.
That fucking moron!
There is no other logical explanation.
Just so he can trample on President Carter's memory.
President Carter will live in my memory as one of the greatest men ever to have held the office.
Ivanka has said that it is GLUED on (although she didn't reveal how often wigs are changed out, or how they are cleaned).

Shit, do you think any of those headbangers will read this?
Can not imagine anyone taking the deranged and dangerous seriously, 51.7% of the voters did.
The man exceeds only himself.
"Flying the flag of our great country at half-staff when a new POTUS is elected diminishes the office, BTW, would you like a new pair of $400 golden sneakers or perhaps I can interest you in an autographed buy-bull. "
God bless President Carter.
What a sad little man.
I can't believe how many Americans chose this shit.
One last message from the grave.
That explains everything.
