If I remember right, history says the flags were at half staff during Nixon’s inauguration, due to the death of Truman. Nixon didn’t make a fuss about it.
Edit for all those responding below: Of course, Nixon was a WWII veteran, serving in the Navy in the Pacific. Known as the fleet’s best poker player, but that’s another story. As such, he also served under Truman who ended the war by dropping the bomb. Conjecture is that the troops appreciated Truman’s decision. In the end, Nixon respected Truman. Trump respects no one.
10 bucks says during inauguration he brings up this specific fact and makes a big deal about how he’s not going to make a fuss, with no sense of irony.

Nixon, a true swine, was twice the man trump is.
Even Ronald Reagan, who I believe was the literal devil, is at least 1.5x the man Trump is
