Considering all the nasty things Trump has said about President Carter, he should not attend.

The Carter family would look bad if they didn't invite him, and Trump would look bad if he received an invitation but turned it down. It's not a good situation for anybody but...here we are.


The Carter family wishes to have a dignified funeral service for their progenitor and the clown showing trump and his family guarantee anything but dignified. I bet he will do his dumbest to speak.

When Biden dies Jill will not invite Trump. All former presidents are entitled to a State funeral and Trump cannot deny this perk.


And no one can deny the same for Trump and Clinton.

I wonder how many presidents will show up for Trump's funeral. Probably just Vance.

Hopefully Vance will never be President. He is a total zero. Anyway, if Trump’s relationship with his first VP is any predictor, then Vance won’t be there either.

She’s living in Hawaii. Sounds like she and Barack are separated.

Look at them getting along.

And we have idiots in the family and relationship forums disowning family members over politics.


Np maybe there are other reasons in addition? Anyway, if it isn't your family why do you care?

Worst President is Trump

Jill and Kamala aren’t.




Awkward. So much bad energy in those first two pews. No wonder Michelle noped out.

Too bad. I always enjoy seeing Michelle and W interact. Maybe we’ll get to see that duo at the inauguration.


I bet Biden is the only president who will attend trump's inauguration and all former presidents will have scheduling conflicts for his funeral.

I can't remember all the bas s@it Trump said about Obama, Harris, W and Carter and yet he too is capable of having a 'polite' conversation with Obama.

If Obama is so bad why is Trump making nice?

Very strange that Michelle didn’t attend—even if they are separated. It detracts from the funeral and prompts questions. Are they separated? Is she sick? Is she recovering from a facelift? Etc.

Assuming she was physically able to fly back from “her extended holiday in Hawaii” — which was the official excuse for her absence — she should have been there. Carter was a kind and honorable man, and the former First Lady should have shown up.

Well, where were Dan Quayle and Dick Cheney? Why do they get a pass but not Michelle?

I believe they're sitting in order of when they were president. After Obama was Trump. Clinton, W, Obama, Trump. It's not complicated.

Wealthy elites are birds of a feather that typically have plenty to talk about. Trump is known to be an incessant talker. Obama has presidential class and isn't going to shun the President-Elect at a State funeral. End of story.


Yucking it up with literally Hitler to maintain “class” riiiiiight. Just admit it’s all fake and letting peasants vote is just an illusion of control.


Our politicians aren't as divided along party lines as their loyal partisan supporters have been trained to be and our two parties have worked together to put rules into place that will make it very difficult for either party to fail to the extent that they are replaced. I'm not so sure I'd call that fake. Uniparty in some ways, yes. In any event, Obama is a real-life class act and Trump is real-life jerk.

Looks like only Pence, Obama, and Gore acknowledged Trump. Pence only stood to show acknowledgement because Gore stood first. Ms. Pence said nope, not today. She reached out her hand and acknowledged every former POTUS except Trump. You are not going to ask for her husband's neck and then think everything is good. I admire her for not being hypocritical.


Mother was pi$$ed.

I’m genuinely sad by this. I hope they’re not separated.

Cheney is in his bunker

I don’t think Quayle ever puts in an appearance. When was the last time we saw him?

Dan Quayle and his wife were sitting next to Al Gore. They were mostly out of camera view during the service, but I did see them a handful of times.

Based on the seating, she would have been directly next to Trump. Can you really blame her? It’s also a long way back from Hawaii.

Yes, I can blame her. Extremely poor taste for her not to show. This has to mean that she and Barack are on the outs.
