Kamala Harris Faces Backlash for Photo Snub at Jimmy Carter’s Funeral
Vice President Kamala Harris stirred controversy after posting a photo from President Jimmy Carter’s funeral that excluded Donald Trump. The event brought together five current and former presidents — Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden, and Trump — but Harris’s social media post cropped out Trump.
“President Jimmy Carter loved our country,” Harris captioned the photo, sparking backlash online. Critics accused her of being petty and trying to erase Trump’s presence, with some labeling her actions as disrespectful and divisive.
Meanwhile, a surprising interaction between Barack Obama and Trump before the service caught attention. A lip reader reported that the two shared lighthearted banter about logistics, with Trump joking about avoiding certain tasks and Obama mentioning future plans.
The moment of camaraderie between the two former rivals stood in contrast to the tension surrounding Harris’s post, adding another layer of intrigue to the gathering of leaders.
