Vice President Kamala Harris shared a tribute photo to honor the late President Jimmy Carter, but the post sparked attention for omitting former President Donald Trump and his wife, Melania.
The image, posted over the weekend, showed Harris with Presidents Biden, Clinton, Bush, and Obama, all solemnly placing their hands over their hearts at the funeral.
Trump and Melania, who attended the service and sat next to the Obamas, were noticeably missing from the cropped photo. The omission quickly fueled speculation online, with some suggesting it was a deliberate edit due to the political tension between Trump and Harris, especially after their 2024 election rivalry.
The debate over the cropped photo continued as the Carter Center also posted funeral pictures without the Trumps. While the service was meant to honor Carter’s legacy, the controversy over the photo highlights how politics can still overshadow moments of unity.
