Me too. But I'm nearly 100% certain that in McConnell's written final requests - he states that under no circumstances should Trump appear at any official event after his death and that Trump should not attend his funeral. But on the plus side - Trump will riff to journos to dance on McConnell's grave of so at least we'll have that. And I assume Trump will do that a few times.
Oh yeah, I did not mean a proper eulogy. Trump would never crawl his ass to a cemetery or whatever to degrade himself like that for McConnell. Maybe for Netanyahu. Definitely not any currently living American politicians that I can think of
I wish reporters had brains and interests like the rest of Americans. They could ask Trump today about McConnell's physical problems. The response would probably be gold.
