George W. Bush's 'bromance' with Obama takes internet by storm... after he snubbed Trump

State funerals are largely a somber affair, but an interaction between former Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush on Thursday has taken the internet by storm.

Both former presidents were seated in the second row for the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC.

Video showed both U.S. leaders arriving for the event where Bush greeted Obama in a way that had the internet screaming 'bromance.'

Obama was the first to enter the shot where he greeted the former vice presidents in the row behind him before taking his seat next to President-elect Trump.

When Bush shows up to enter the row, Obama stands up to let him and former First Lady Laura Bush pass.

That's when Bush gave his successor a friendly tap on the stomach before the couple took their seats to Obama's left.

The playful moment did not go unnoticed by people watching coverage of the gathering of some of the world's current and past most powerful U.S. leaders.

Oh, yeah.

The Bush family, like the Pences, the Cheneys are Deep State.

Folks who think that it’s just Dem pols who pose a threat to our republic are kidding themselves.

I saw it. It was worse than described. Both Laura and George intentionally ignored not only DJT but also Melania. They were so rude. GWB looked like a punk frat boy with Obama. Trash family.

It was childish but I don’t care what he did with Obama. It was that George and Laura purposely ignored Trump and Melania. Low class, IMO.

Deep State rats tend to gravitate towards each other at public events.
