Yeah, there was a... A lot of interesting body language there. What was it with George Bush tapping Obama on the belly? It's sort of like, thanks for taking one for the team guy. But you know, I've read there's a lot of people upset that Barack Obama and others didn't have more of a Karen Pence type act of defiance against Trump. I am not sure what the right thing to do

Is there, I mean, are you really going to, like, stage a fight at Jimmy Carter's funeral? No.

Yeah, I kind of felt like you could see the conflict in Trump's mind in that clip that he knows being buddy-buddy is bad for his street cred, right, with the MAGA base. But this is actually what he wants. He wants to be in the president's club. He wants to be the guy that is acknowledged and respected at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

And he kind of, in some of the pictures, really looked, I mean, honestly, for the first time in a long time, it looked like he was enjoying himself. Yeah. which is weird to have that amount of enjoyment at a funeral. But I do think this speaks to what really motivates Trump.

In the second, if Obama was ever going to put himself in this position, it seems like he's taken himself out of it for the indefinite time being. If Obama started giving speeches, started supporting candidates, started becoming active in public life in a way that posed a challenge to Trump's authority and power, Trump would flip like a dime again.

But the reason why I think he can be buddy-buddy with Obama, I'm not speaking to Obama's side of it, is that Obama is no longer an obstacle to him.

It should. It should.

It's uncomfortable to see them all getting along together. I probably would have done what Michelle Obama did is just not go at all. That's probably not the right thing. The right thing is probably what Karen Pence did. I mean, what do you do? Do you ask for separate seating arrangements? Sure. You know, Obama, Bush.
