Here is something I put together previously on my observations of that event:

READ THIS:

• I watched the original televised funeral when it happened. DJT and Melania were the last to arrive and took their seats at the center end of the front row on the right. Prior to their arrival, the cameras were filming and doing close ups of all the former presidents and their wives, in the right front row, then, the VPs in the next row with their wives and then the various former and current secondary leadership in rows behind them.

• The Bush family was in the front rows on the left, with 2 men who appeared to be Secret Service behind them. Before Trump's arrival, George W. Bush came over to the right side of the pews and greeted everyone and was shaking hands and yucking it up with Michelle, Hillary, Bill, Barry, Jimmy and Roselynn. He gave Michelle some kind of candy or coin (inside joke apparently) and she laughed. They were all animatedly talking like it was a happy occasion. The VPs behind them were also involved in this friendly conversation.

• Then George went and sat back down with his wife Laura and brother Jeb into the front seats of the pews on the left. Soon DJT and Melania arrive very solemnly. When the Trumps first appeared in the church, the lively bunch of former presidents, VP's & their wives, suddenly stiffened, sat back in the pew and turned forward not looking at the Trumps. None looked happy to see them, not even the Pences, which was quite interesting.

• The Trumps stopped at the first row and a Marine Corps officer took DJT's long coat from him and then Trump and wife sat down. Trump and Melania leaned forward to politely shake hands with the closest few and then turned forward for the service to begin. Noticeably, when Trump was shaking hands with Barry, Michelle and Bill, he didn't even look back to Mike Pence & his wife seated directly behind him. Mike kept his face looking straight forward like he didn't see Trump either. Very icy between them. Not even a nod. Other times on camera you could see Pence had a very big frown on his face.

• Later, the cameras zoom in on Hillary opening her program and a small envelope falls out. She opens it, looks at it and puts it back. Then Jimmy Carter having seen this, looked for his, but there was none. Then Michelle finds hers, opens it, shows Barack and keeps a straight face, Barack appears unaffected, but raises his chin in a kind of smug defiance. Then VP Pence’s wife finds hers, then Jill Biden, then Dick Cheney’s wife, the Dan Quayle's wife and several more.

• It was interesting how the cameraman knew exactly where to focus! Some of the wives then lean forward and whisper like, “Did you get one of these?” to each other. Trump and Melania look at none of this and stare straight forward. Then as the casket with GHW Bush is passing by, you can see the cameras focus on GW Bush who is standing stiffly with an erect posture, but looking crestfallen. He is holding a program in his hand. He briefly pulls out a pen and scribbles something on it and hands it to wife Laura beside him to read it.

• Laura glances at it and then looks wounded. She shows it to Jeb who is standing next to her on the other side and he glances at it briefly. Jeb had been standing with his hand on his heart with a tilted head and a loving expression. He had been focused on the pallbearers and casket of his father that was coming down the aisle past them. When Jeb sees the note that his brother had scribbled, he drops his hand from his heart and stares at the casket as it passes as if to say, “Dad! How could you!”

It was a very interesting scene.
