“I don’t know, we just get along.” Before the funeral of former US president Jimmy Carter This Thursday, January 9, Barack Obama and Donald Trump were seen chatting and, at times, exchanging smiles.
The former Democratic president, who was heavily involved in Vice President Kamala Harris’s ill-fated campaign against the Republican, briefly laughed in reaction to something Donald Trump said to him. Images that intrigued the United States, whose relations have been tense in recent years.
Repeatedly, Donald Trump, for example, spread a rumor that Barack Obamathen president, was not born in the United States and was therefore not an American, making his election illegal.
The president-elect spoke to Fox News on Friday about these images. “I have to say I found him very friendly,” he admitted. “I didn’t realize how friendly he seemed. I saw it on your wonderful channel… and I was like, ‘Damn, they look like two people who ‘like’ each other,'” she added. “And it probably is.”
Trump “got along well with everyone”
Five American presidents gathered around Jimmy Carter’s coffin in Washington on Thursday. In the same row as Donald Trump were former Democratic President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary Clinton, defeated by the Republican in 2016 after a very aggressive campaign.
Also present was Kamala Harris, outgoing vice president and unsuccessful candidate against Donald Trump during the last presidential election. Joe Biden delivered a eulogy in tribute to the 39th president, who died on December 29 at the age of 100.
“We have slightly different philosophies, right? But I don’t know, we just get along,” Donald Trump said of Barack Obama, without specifying what they talked about.
“But I agreed with everyone on this point,” the president-elect continued. “We met backstage before we started and I thought it was good service, but we all got along very well.”
