Marthe48 (19,525 posts)6. I feel sorry that Former Pres. Obamahad to sit by a smelly old felon
Xavier Breath (5,219 posts)7. Knowing Trump and his temperament it had to be something really innocuous.Had Trump at any time sensed anything he perceived as criticism he would have lost his shit right then and there, funeral decorum be damned. I'm sure Obama was well aware of that and steered the conversation accordingly.
Quiet Em (1,320 posts)9. The con was bragging that his own funeral will be the most beautiful of alland that he would have the bestest speakers, like Matt Gaetz, Marge Green and Hulk Hogan.
2naSalit (93,925 posts)10. He's bragging...About something he never had anything to do with, possibly an Obama policy win, while Obama is trying not to be too appalled and thinking he is not sitting there for long.
Polybius (18,615 posts)18. Trump: How come Clinton and Bush don't wanna talk to me?Obama is a genuine nice guy, and probably felt bad, even faking a laugh.

Among the ceremonial obligations to honor the former president, the spectacle of political posturing and strained handshakes was enough to quite the sideshow. It began with President Donald Trump walking past Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Trudeau’s side-eye was practically a headline in itself....Then came the handshakes. Trump shook hands with former Vice Presidents Al Gore and Mike Pence. The moment with Pence, though, was particularly notable. The two men, who have had their differences, looked like they were simply fulfilling the political equivalent of a ceremonial obligation — nothing more, nothing less. But the true spectacle was the cold shoulder Trump received from the Bush family and the Clintons. As they walked past him, no one spoke a word, and the ice in the room was palpable.At least the Bushes and Clintons managed to look somewhat dignified while ignoring Trump. Barack Obama, however, went a step further, sharing a brief but genuine moment of conversation with Trump. Trump appeared to crack a joke that Obama laughed at — a lighthearted moment between Trump and the man who used the federal government to spy on his 2016 presidential campaign. As if the scene wasn’t tense enough, the arrival of Joe and Jill Biden added some drama to the unfolding saga. They had to sit next to Kamala Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff. The body language of Jill Biden, who sat next to Kamala, was particularly cold.
Just pathetic. What really POs DU-folk is that Obama didn't scream at Trump and call Trump "Hitler", "Fascist", "Racist", and "Everything-Evil-ist!"
