Better late than never
Trump changed position on lowering flag for Gazette victims. Good. sanders explanation doesn’t make sense entirely. Did Trump not know directly? Who knows but notion that press should be dissed was obviously understood by his team and that’s the problem. https://t.co/HktS9Jo6x5

Sarah Huckabee Sanders tells CNN that president Trump will lower flags for the victims of the Capital Gazette shooting:
"Last night, as soon as the President heard about the request from the Mayor he ordered the flags to be lowered."
The proclamation will be coming shortly.
