Online Reactions Erupt

The cropped image quickly went viral. Social media users speculated whether Harris had intentionally excluded the Trumps.

“Best photo crop of the decade,” one user joked. Another added, “I immediately laughed when I saw this image. I love a good cropped photo.”

Harris Stays Silent on the Trumps

In her caption, Harris praised Carter’s legacy:

“President Jimmy Carter loved our country. He lived his faith, served the people, and left the world better than he found it. President Carter’s many contributions will echo for generations to come.”

She didn’t mention Trump at all. This omission only fueled speculation, especially given her history as Biden’s running mate in the 2024 election—an election where she faced off directly against Trump.

Carter Center Adds to the Controversy

To add fuel to the fire, the Carter Center shared its own set of photos from the funeral on X (formerly Twitter). These images also left out Donald and Melania Trump, despite their confirmed attendance.

A Funeral Meant to Unite

The service brought together all five living former U.S. presidents—Biden, Trump, Clinton, Bush, and Obama—along with several vice presidents, including Mike Pence and JD Vance. First lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Doug Emhoff also attended. However, Michelle Obama was absent. Her office gave no explanation.

Politics Overshadow the Tribute

Although the event aimed to honor Jimmy Carter’s legacy, the conversation online has shifted toward political drama. Once again, a moment of unity turned into a battleground for public perception.
