Ok but what if Trump actually did say something funny? He's awful in more ways than can be expressed but I don't think anybody here hasn't laughed at something he said at some point, like asking "At that age it's marginal, right?" to the kid who still believed in Christmas.

Obama is also really funny, just look at his Rahm Emanuel joke, so this pic doesn't really surprise me at all. I get people who are really focused on optics may be but they were at a funeral and seated by each other.

I would have blown my rape whistle instead,

At jimmy Carter's funeral? Do you often make scenes at solemn events?

If they blew a rape whistle at merely sitting by Trump during Jimmy "Notorious Do-gooder" Carter's funeral, I kind of wonder how they'd tackle the 2017 inauguration.

Which to prioritize? My "not being in the same room as a rapist" virtue or the tradition of peacefully transfer of power? It's silly to act like this one funeral pic summarizes the Obama-Trump relationship.
