President-elect Donald Trump has objected to the current plan of flying American flags at half-staff for the late President Jimmy Carter, who died last week, during the inauguration on January 20. Traditionally, flags are flown at half-staff for 30 days after the death of a president, though this would be the first time they were lowered during an inauguration.
