Greg Abbott (R) on Monday ordered the state\u2019s flags be raised to full-staff on Inauguration Day, as President-elect Trump enters his second term in the White House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The move disrupts the 30-day period of half-staff mourning issued by President Biden to honor the late President Carter. Biden ordered flags nationally to half-staff through sunset on Jan. 28. Abbott\u2019s order would apply to all flags at the Texas Capitol and at state buildings on Jan. 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTexas continues to mourn with our fellow Americans across the country over the passing of former President Jimmy Carter,\u201d Abbott said in a statement. \u201cPresident Carter\u2019s steadfast leadership left a lasting legacy that will be felt for generations to come, which together as a nation we honor by displaying flags at half-staff for 30 days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOn January 20, our great nation will celebrate our democratic tradition of transferring power to a new President by inaugurating the 47th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump,\u201d he continued. \u201cAs we unite our country and usher in this new era of leadership, I ordered all flags to be raised to full-staff at the Texas Capitol and all state buildings for the inauguration of President Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile 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,\u201d Abbott said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carter, the 39th U.S. president, died Dec. 29 at the age of 100, the longest-lived president in the nation\u2019s history. Flags were lowered to half-staff to pay tribute to him, and the White House announced they would remain that way for 30 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump, soon after Carter\u2019s death, blasted Democrats as \u201cgiddy\u201d that flags would be set to half-staff during the time of his inauguration, which falls in the 30-day period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Democrats are all \u2018giddy\u2019 about our magnificent American Flag potentially being at \u2018half mast\u2019 during my Inauguration,\u201d Trump wrote on Truth Social on Jan. 3. \u201cThey think it\u2019s so great, and are so happy about it because, in actuality, they don\u2019t love our Country, they only think about themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNobody wants to see this, and no American can be happy about it. Let\u2019s see how it plays out,\u201d Trump said, referring to the flags being lowered during his inauguration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hill has reached out to the Trump team for comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a post after Carter\u2019s death, Trump said he \u201cstrongly disagreed\u201d with Carter \u201cphilosophically and politically,\u201d but recognized that the former president \u201ctruly loved and respected our Country and all it stands for.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Texas Gov.
