He'd just make it about himself as usual. I can't blame the McCain's for not wanting him there.

He at least had a little bit of dignity to him, even if it wasn't much. Trump is a classless, white trash president for classless, white trash people.

Watering down the dirt....if ya get my drift.

Seriously though, they will have to either cremate him, bury him in a secret place or hire guards 24/7 to stop the dancers, grave robbers and grave pissers from having their say.

It is quite astounding that a U.S. president could openly be this horrible. It was really unimaginable - until now.

So I would have to say 'No' as an answer to your question.

His pouting thought process: my funeral will be the greatest funeral ever...

Mourners? Hire 'em

And hold it in a stadium

And a 800-foot tall marble mausoleum visible from space, built with Russian mob money

Solid gold coffin, paid with "charitable tax-exempt organization" donations

If possible get my last trophy wife and several dozen loyal servants entombed with him

Maybe have a few hundred people on retainer to "wail in grief" 24 hours a day

And "How Great Thou Art" on loudspeakers nonstop (suggested in another thread he'd think it was about him...stealing that)

sad what the republicans have done to America by surrendering to russia -despite John McCain - and installing an illegitimate draft-dodging casino hustler in America's White House.

Trump is not a legitimate president to begin with, and none who preceded him deserve the indignity of a comparison. And after today he is even more irrelevant.
