Trump to Install Tall Flagpoles at White House

President Donald Trump has announced plans to install two nearly 100-foot-tall American flagpoles on the North and South lawns of the White House, describing them as 'beautiful' and 'top of the line.' Trump stated the flagpoles will be personally funded and address what he views as a long-standing absence of prominent flag displays. He personally surveyed the proposed installation sites with the White House groundskeeper, and completion is expected within about a week. The announcement, delivered during a walk on the White House grounds, also touched on ongoing trade negotiations and his tariff agenda. While the White House currently flies an American flag and the POW/MIA flag, Trump emphasized these new flagpoles as a significant enhancement. The move reflects his broader efforts to leave a personal mark on the White House during his tenure.
