Awkward atmosphere as Trump and former presidents attend Bush funeralThe uncomfortable reunion brought President Donald Trump together in the same pew with past White House residents who have given him decidedly critical reviews. Mr Bush took his seat across the aisle from the ex-presidents, with the rest of the Bush family. In a speech in September, Mr Obama slammed the “crazy stuff” coming out of the White House without directly naming Mr Trump. Mr Carter told The New York Times in 2017 the media had been harder on Mr Trump than other presidents. Mr Clinton said in June that America should be rooting for Mr Trump to succeed in his North Korea talks.
