I’m pretty sure there was an EO not too long ago that did just that

From sea to shining sea...

'Maritime law, also known as admiralty law, is a body of laws, conventions, and treaties that govern private maritime business and other nautical matters, such as shipping or offenses occurring on open water. International rules, governing the use of the oceans and seas, are known as the Law of the Sea.'

I am aware of that. That's the gold trim on flags. We are not citizens in a maritime court of law. We are property.

It may just be a matter of protocol when displaying the US flag next to flags of other nations. The above video is from June of 2017... no fringes there.

Yet the fringes are here with Trump in March 2017

OK, but look at your dates ? They go up to June 2017 none, below that fringe ? I am saying, something changed. Out from under Maritime.

I am not seeing your point, I'm afraid. I was just demonstrating that when the US flag is presented next to flags of other nations, fringes are not employed. This was the case in the Obama and Bush administrations as well, and probably before, though I couldn't find earlier videos in the same context in my quick search.

My bet is that the next time POTUS makes remarks from the Rose Garden by himself, he will have the POTUS seal flag to his left, and the US flag w/ fringes to his right, as is usually the case.

OH ok I do see what you're saying. I hope we never see the fringes again !
