Trump's Gift of 'Most Magnificent' Flagpoles and Flags Celebrated at the White House
- On June 18, 2025, President Donald Trump revealed plans to erect two flagpoles as a personal gift, placing them on the northern and southern grounds of the White House.
- Trump said the White House had lacked flagpoles for over 200 years despite having one on the roof, and he personally funded the 100-foot poles and their installation.
- Work to install the flagpoles started early Wednesday morning, involving digging about four inches into the grass, and the flags were hoisted around 11 a.m.
- Trump praised the flagpoles, highlighting their high quality features such as being rust-resistant, tapered, and having internal ropes, and mentioned that each pole cost $50,000.
- The flagpoles and flags will remain at the White House permanently, marking a lasting personal addition amid ongoing renovations, which Trump hopes will stand proudly for years.
