        Not *in this case.* As the article points out near the end, not traveling to (and thereby disrupting) the funeral of a former First Lady is common among recent Presidents.

        I understand, that being said - racial Barack Obama didn't want to attend the funeral of racist Nancy Reagan. But Donald Trump not attending the funeral of a First Lady of his own party feels strange to me.

        It should have been bi-racial, not racial. Sorry, auto-correct.

        Don't get me wrong, I hate Trump as much as the next guy, but don't sitting presidents usually not go to funerals of former First Ladies?

        He attended Billy Graham's funeral; so much for "avoiding disruptions due to added security & respect for family and friends attending the service." Was BG more important than Former First Lady Barbara Bush?

        He attended Billy Graham's funeral to pander to his base. There is no political benefit to him attending Barbara Bush's funeral.

        He’s probably unwelcome. He’s an embarrassment and should stay home. No one wants him there anyway.

        No doubt trump will be golfing during the service.

        How dare you, Donald Trump? On the other hand, I guess Melania doesn't want him by her side anyway. #freemelania
