HA! When has the idiot in the White House ever followed protocol before?

Perhaps you should read up on the proper protocol.....

The practices and protocols governing the U.S. flag code are complicated. Official U.S. code dictates that after the death of a member of Congress, the flag must be flown at half-staff on the day of death and the day after. This procedure was followed by the White House staff, who lowered their flag on Saturday after the news of McCain’s death and kept it lowered all day Sunday.

After Congressional leaders asked that the flag be lowered until internments, the White House staff again lowered the flag to half mast.
