From VetWife at Daily Kos

I watched the Carter Funeral and this one was very sad but GW Bush and Bill Clinton and Hillary and Laura dissed Trump in a way that was described in the way to treat him in a diary I wrote yesterday. ( Glad they felt the same way as I did). Ha….Hillary looked angry having to be in the same room with him and Bush looked almost as frustrated. I thought it was magnificent that Bush had to walk past him and shake everyone else’s hand and just ignore Trump.

Upon second look, it appears the Carter family paid no greeting as well.

This is the way it is done - ignore him!

Karen Pence, too. Way to go, Mother!
