People walk past flags flying at half-staff at the Washington Monument, May 22, 2020, in Washington. President Donald Trump ordered American flags to be flown at half-staff for a three-day period in remembrance of Americans who have lost their lives due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The flag on the roof of the White House flies at half-staff by order of President Donald Trump, "for every life lost to the coronavirus pandemic," May 22, 2020, in Washington.
President Donald Trump arrives on the South Lawn of the White House after returning from a trip to Michigan, May 21, 2020, in Washington. Though the president usually addresses the issue in speaking of"churches," he made clear that the guidance will apply to all religious institutions.
After 100000 dead he did something as a tribute
How can he be President of the United States, when he clearly hates Americans? He’s the only president who has such a desire to see the dead bodies pile up. He’s determined to kill us faster than the virus. ImpeachedForever
Like Donnie really gives a shit about anyone who died...
No he didn’t, Nancy Pelosi had to push for this! Give her the credit! We can’t even get I’m sorry from 45!!!
After Pelosi and Schumer sent him a letter requesting that he do so. You might want to note that it wasn't Cheeto Mussolini's idea.
Did he specifically address it today though during his conference?
Thank you sir / Donald Trump! biLL PS: you do look good in a mask, I do agree with you. I guessed June 14th as a 1st mask spotting of you so my lotto guess was off by 20 some days. :)
Thanks to the efforts of Senator Schulman and House Speaker Pelosi that petition the WH. As for Trump he was waiting for the 100,000 Mark.
It’s half mast you complete Neanderthals ffs if your going to speak our language speak it correctly
His resignation would be more of a remembrance to the deceased Americans than lowering the flags. It would show that he finally understands his incompetent piss poor leadership. And, his total lack of empathy!
Thanks SenSchumer for making this happen.
Why not raise and lower the flag in accordance with the Dow? 📈 🇺🇸 📉
Thank you Pelosi
I would rather be an American than a Trump supporter.
Um, yeah, whose fault is that?
2 birds with one stone act?
Since people continue to die from COVID-19, wouldn’t it be appropriate to leave the flags at half staff until the deaths stopped? TrumpDeathToll95K
Cuomo did it in April. It didn't occur to Trump until his poll numbers tanked. He just used a Memorial Day event to honor himself. The man is devoid of human empathy. Surprised he didn't say he prefers Americans who didn't die.
MemorialDayWeekend Are they not already being lowered for Memorial Day weekend?
At least he did it! It should have been his initiative - but he complied :)
He was shamed into it.
he didn’t cause Covid and maybe he could’ve taken more measures sooner but it’s more his total lack of remorse and compassion and his complete focus on how HE looks That makes a political gesture such as this an impotent sad & meaningless attention getting soundbite. heartless
THANK YOU DEM GOV FOR LETTING SICK IN NURSING HOLMES
The hypocrisy of this guy is insane.
Too bad he had to be shamed by SpeakerPelosi to do so.
Amazing! We send our prayers to those that have been lost! You are not forgotten! Their lives matter and matters to all Americans!
Thanks Dems, for shaming him into doing this
Sad when you plainly see the puppeteers' work. Trump would never have come up with that on his own.
Nice of him to finally acknowledge the deaths, after months of not even bothering to express condolences to the victims' families.
