US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order putting all flags at half-mast following the death of Pope Francis

“I just signed an executive order putting the flags of our country — all of them, all federal and state flags — at half-mast in honor of Pope Francis. He was a good man. He worked hard.

“He loved the world, and it’s an honor to do this.” Trump Said.

Trump made the announcement flanked by the First Lady (and the Easter Bunny) as the traditional White House Easter Egg roll began.

Pope Francis died today at the age of 88.
