Do you agree with President Trump's proclamation?

After doing some investigation, this is nothing new, 41's son President George W. Bush, declared such a day in early 2007 when former President Gerald Ford died at 93.

In 2004, the younger Bush ordered the same salute to former President Ronald Reagan.

President Bill Clinton also declared a day of national mourning when former President Richard Nixon died at the age 81 in 1994.

Also in honor of Bush 41, the New York Stock Exchange as well as Nasdaq have said  that they will close trading Wednesday in observance of a national day of mourning for Bush.41.

Most federal employees will be excused from work according to the Office of Personnel Management.

All federal offices will be closed as will the Social Security offices across the nation.  Some banks will also be closed.

As a matter of fact, The Supreme Court is postponing arguments for the day and all votes in Congress have been cancelled or postponed until after the funeral tomorrow.

The former president died Friday , November 30th at the age of 94, 7 months after his wife of 73 years Barbara Bush died April, 17, 2018 at the age of 92.
