On Wednesday, following a tour of the White House’s North Lawn with Chief Groundskeeper Dale Haney, Trump informed reporters of the forthcoming flag additions.
He described the new additions, which he is personally paying for, as “beautiful” — emphasizing their symbolic significance and visual impact.
“We’re putting up a beautiful, almost 100-foot-tall American flag,” Trump said, adding that the two flagpoles will be “top of the line.”
“And they’ve needed flagpoles for 200 years,” Trump told reporters. “It was something I’ve often said. You know, they don’t have a flagpole, per se. So we’re putting one right where you saw us, and we’re putting another one on the side on top of the mounds. It’s going to be two beautiful poles.”
He continued, stating that the flagpoles will be “paid for by” him and that they should arrive at the White House in about a week.
