Poor Trump, he will have to live with this oddity 10 days before he is sworn in on January 20 as the 47th President of the United States. Unless he succeeds, for the umpteenth time, in having the date of the verdict postponed. Whatever happens, we can say that our criminal has seen others.
And as misfortune never comes alone, Trump will have to endure the torture of the country’s flags at half-mast during his swearing-in, in order to pay tribute to President Jimmy Carter, who died on December 29.
In fact, American flags must remain at half-mast for 30 days following his death. It’s the custom, that’s all. But Donald the Skull Hat was against it with resentment when he heard the news. On his social network, he even wrote that no one will want to see flags at half-mast during his swearing-in. Here is yet another obstacle that stands before him.
Class and dignity? Not for Trump!
Who knows if he doesn’t say to himself that Jimmy Carter is trying to overshadow him and that the Biden government wants to ruin his one man show from January 20. But in fact, in terms of comparisons, Trump does not come close to the great president that Carter was.
Instead of all this, shouldn’t he recognize him de facto, and remain silent, while paying him due homage? But the megalomaniac that he is only thinks of his own glory and refuses, one would say, to recognize the posthumous glory of a great departed. For humility, we will come back.
All Trump deserves is for Joe Biden not to be present during his swearing-in. We remember that Donald the skullcap did not show up on January 20, 2021 for Biden’s. But Biden will indeed be present, that goes without saying, since the 46th President of the United States acts with class and dignity! These are qualities that Trump seems cruelly lacking. It is clear!
