Really American
Three living Presidents, current and former Biden, Obama, and Clinton, were all present at the Ethel Kennedy funeral today.
Donald Trump? Not present.
This picture is PERFECT.

You'd think he'd show up for RFK Jr's mom's funeral...

I can't imagine he was invited. All three who did attend had a personal relationship with her...

Even if RFK JR wanted it, the rest of the family abhors him.

I find it hard to believe Trump ever met her or if he did was never more than an accidental passing introduction.
It was an important memorial, but not a "State Funeral," so I don't think it would have been expected at all. Have you read otherwise?

since he's the guy who has to be "the baby at every christening, the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral." If he'd been there he'd have been more like the skunk at the picnic.
