Four first families sat in the front row of George H.W. Bush's funeral today -- the Carters, the Obamas, the Clintons, and the Trumps.

The Trumps, arriving last, sat next to the Obamas, with Barack shaking the hands of Donald and Melania. Michelle -- who famously said she would never forgive Trump for smearing her husband with his "birther" lies -- also shook hands with the Trumps.

But the Clintons gave a much icier response to the unpopular First Family. Bill turned his head and Hillary nodded at Melania. But when it came to the current president -- who regularly denigrates her -- Hillary refused to look at him; she sat resolute, staring straight ahead. To many, Hillary gave Trump the greeting he deserves.
