Trumps trying to play it as a security concern . That's bull . Your trying to tell me 4 ex presidents and their wives would need less security than one current one ?

Ironically, Melania was there; as though that makes up for Trump's absence.

So it's okay to risk her life, but not his own?

The fucktard was playing golf.

That's all he ever does.

Perhaps the lesson is, no matter how shitty the administration of a given ex-president had been, it would always look like the age of Pericles next to what we have?

Dubya seems on excellent terms with Bill and Hillary. I don’t think the dubya was much, but even from a starting point as low as his the presidency seemed to have proven an ennobling experience.   So even he does not deserve to have a photo showing him besmirched by the visage of the loofa faced shit gibbon.

Melania is just an Easter European gold digger and illegal immigrant.   She is far less undeserving of having her picture taken with Presidents of the United States than the loofa faced shit gibbon.

But where's Trump?

He was sitting in Florida tweeting all day like a heartless, tone-deaf buffoon




Well, at least Melania had some fun for change, just by having a brief opportunity to hang around a classy person

Maybe a little tough to explain or understand, but by my 1960s upbringing, Trump's presence would have been a pointed insult to Barbara (and the Bush family) as being such an outlier in regards to his morals vs theirs.

Attending a funeral for 'folks like that' when you are so demonstrably NOT even remotely believing or practicing anything close yourself 'just isn't done'.

People (like my mother) would exclaim "What would people think if he showed up??". Mom, her similarly thinking friends and most of the family would have been outraged to have such a creature as Trump show up for a funeral for a 'respectable' person.

From the article, it doesn't sound like there was anything unusual about this (Trump's absence).  To make a big deal about it (as if it is news) is kind of reminding me of the $2,500 conspiracy between the Russians and the NRA.

If Obama is game, then Melania would have pulled off a doozy of a revenge. But I doubt Michelle would be understanding.

I thought Carter was doing pretty well, but maybe not invited? The Carter/Reagan campaign was pretty brutal, probably didn't want to revisit that . .
