Trump and Melania Pay Respects to Jimmy Carter

Former President Jimmy Carter's passing brought a mix of emotions and memories. Among those who paid their respects was Donald Trump, along with his wife Melania. They visited the Capitol Rotunda where Carter's casket lay in state, a tradition for former presidents. Trump, who had often criticized Carter during his campaign, took a somber approach during the visit. The rotunda was filled with a steady stream of people, including members of Congress and former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. People from all walks of life came to pay their respects, sharing personal stories and reflections on Carter's legacy. The contrast between Carter's funeral and the upcoming inauguration of Trump was notable, with many highlighting Carter's honesty and integrity. Officials from both sides of the aisle also paid tribute, remembering Carter's humanitarian work and religious convictions. After the funeral, Carter will be buried next to his wife in their hometown of Plains, Georgia.
