Maybe they should fly it at half-mast.

Upside-down would be more appropriate.

not flying it at all would be most appropriate right now and for the foreseeable future

Seeing how its protocol, wouldn’t not flying it make a statement?

Protocol should be thrown out the window when a president threatens to invade and fines you with massive tariffs. I guess our government has caved to the mango Mussolini.
