Wow...
I bet he picked up the phone and said....”I’ll be there”.
Bttt
I think he will go. He won’t say on social media.
Wonder if the WBC has applied for all the appropriate permits?
The unfortunate thing is that if Trump announces he is going, you can bet antifa will be there to disrupt things.
Trump is in a hard spot here.
His presence would turn the funeral into a MEdia-fueled TDS hatefest which is not befitting the honor and dignity of the funeral service.
I’m sure he will work out something with the family, but it will probably be very private.
Look for FAA NOTAMs banning air traffic around Riverside, CA on 9/18. Could be Biden but that would be unlikely and a really stupid move.
After all it is California....
I agree. Trump’s presence at the funeral would, unfortunately, put the focus on him and not where it should be. Perhaps the best thing Trump could do is send a letter of condolence, and then make a private visit afterwards.
The REAL president of the United States.
Love it.

What is the WBC? I should know this.
“Trump’s presence at the funeral would, unfortunately, put the focus on him and not where it should be.”
In this case, Trump’s presence would be “where it should be” since the parents have invited him. If he showed up without an invitation, it would be beyond tacky. (It’s what Biden would do.)
The Logistics of such a visit are horrendous. There’s also an issue about what the event is about. It would be like someone famous showing up at someone’s wedding. The wedding is the bride’s day, not a meet and greet for the famous. Likewise, a funeral is about the dead, not a political event. More appropriate would be to send a noted representative, such as someone who held an appointed office under Trump.
Yes but 4 days prior Larry Elder will be elected Gov....

Maybe he’ll send her a plane ticket to Florida. You know he will do something more.
If the family wants Trump there its appropriate for him to be there. He’s the rightful President and Joe Biden should cringe with shame everyday because he’s illegitimate.
