I was reading an article about the death of Congresswoman Walorski and her 2 staffers and was suddenly struck by a paragraph that sent a chill down my spine. Link and screenshots below. Any thoughts from the rest of you???

She ordered that flags at the Capitol to fly at half mast.
Not the whole country. President can do that.
This is a nothingburger.
According to the Flag Code, only the President of the United States, your state's Governor, and the Mayor of the District of Columbia can order the US flag lowered to half-staff. If everyone were to half-staff the US flag at will, the symbolic value of that honor would be lost.
Exactly. She was simply wrong or stoopid. She did not claim or pretend or try to be "President" as your silly post suggests.
Why would you think this is silly? Honestly I was asking others thoughts, hence the question mark. I mean the crazy old bat is delusional after all....
