    Jimmy Carter's death means flags will fly at half staff on
    Inauguration Day
    ...
    ...
    The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs states that the flag should
    fly at half-staff for 30-days following the death of a president or
    former president. For other political figures, like a vice president
    or Supreme Court chief justice, the time period of mourning is ten
    days.

    Under this understanding, the flag would remain at half staff until at
    least January 28.

    The backstory: This isn't the first time a presidential death has put
    flags at half staff on Inauguration Day. Harry Truman's death in
    December 1972 left flags at half staff for when President Richard
    Nixon was sworn in for his second term in January 1973.

    Keep in mind that crooked Nixon and crooked Trump had conversations
    with each other.
