As Rosalynn Carter’s family mourns her death, they are putting aside their differences with Donald Trump, including insults the 45th president hurled at Jimmy Carter at a campaign event last weekend, to invite Trump’s wife, Melania Trump, to the former first lady’s funeral.
The Washington Post has reported that Melania Trump has been invited to the service for Rosalynn Carter, which is scheduled to take place next Wednesday.
Rosalynn Carter died at her home in Plains, Georgia, Sunday at the age of 96, two days after she entered hospice care. Jimmy Carter, her husband of 77 years, was by her side, the Washington Post said.
As the Carter family is preparing for Rosalynn Carter’s funeral, they are reportedly keeping in mind that she was a member of a unique group of women: presidential first ladies. All first ladies have been invited to the service, the Washington Post said. This means the world could see Melania Trump at the same event as Jill Biden, Michelle Obama, Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton.
Rosalynn Carter was “a gracious person” who “would treat everybody with respect,” including Melania Trump, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter’s son, James E. “Chip” Carter III, told the Washington Post. His mother was involved in the decision to invite all the first ladies, the Washington Post reported.
President Biden is expected to attend a memorial service for Rosalynn Carter in Atlanta on Tuesday, along with Vice President Harris and second gentleman Doug Emhoff, the White House announced late Tuesday night, according to the Post. Country music stars Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood, who have continued the Carters’ humanitarian work building affordable homes with Habitat for Humanity, are likely to sing at the tribute service.
Trump appeared to hit back at Carter’s longtime disapproval of him last Saturday, when he mocked the 39th president at an event in Iowa for his 2024 presidential campaign.
In criticizing Joe Biden, Trump said that “the happiest person anywhere in this country right now is Jimmy Carter because his administration looked brilliant compared to these clowns,” USA Today reported. “Compared to Biden, Jimmy Carter was a brilliant, brilliant president.”
Jimmy Carter, the oldest living president, also is in frail health and has been in hospice care since February. Still, he hopes to attend his wife’s funeral, the Washington Post said.
Trump and his wife paid tribute to Rosalynn Carter upon learning of her death. Melania Trump wrote on X about Rosalynn Carter’s “meaningful legacy” and her “devotion to her husband, family, and country.” Trump issued a statement of his own on Truth Social, writing that she had “earned the admiration and gratitude” of the nation.
“From her days as a U.S. Navy spouse, to the Georgia Governor’s Mansion, to her tenure as First Lady of the United States, and her later work at the Carter Center and volunteering with Habitat for Humanity, she leaves behind a legacy of extraordinary accomplishment and national service,” Trump said.
LOL! “Second Gentleman” = CUCK
Keep away from Michael and Jill they are up to no good. Melanie be safe and protected in Jesus name✝️
