So, no, though it's easy to imagine him pushing people out of the way, a la the President of Montenegro.

He cannot stand to see people praised in front of him. He'd be liable to stand up and shout, "Hey, everyone, attention please, I just want you to know how great I am, I'm President, that means I am better than Rep. Cummings was."

Plus it is Friday, golf day for the orange monster. How many Presidents have not be invited to funerals like this? If they had their way, he would not have been at the Bush funeral. I think he actually crashed it.

The Obamas, The Clintons, Secretary Pelosi, VP Biden, Senator Warren and other welcome faces are there.
