Death in the Time of Trump
Here’s yet another indication that Washington has been turned upside down in recent years: I saw Rachel Maddow at Dick Cheney’s funeral and didn’t give it a second thought. She was sitting with Anthony Fauci, in the same row as James Carville.
Such is life—and death—in the Trump years. You never know who will show up to pay respects at gatherings of this sort, or what odd alliances and strange bedfellows will reveal themselves. Who gets invited and who doesn’t? Whose attendance will Donald Trump take as an act of disloyalty, or treason? Wait, didn’t that one die during the Obama years?
Donald Trump and JD Vance snubbed for Dick Cheney’s funeral
Joe Biden and George W Bush attend Republicanâs service, while Barack Obama and Bill Clinton are notable absentees
Donald Trump and JD Vance have been snubbed, by not being invited to former vice-president Dick Cheneyâs funeral, taking place on Thursday, according to a White House official familiar with the matter.
Cheney, the former US vice-president to George W Bush and a Republican defense hawk who became a fierce critic of the current US president, died earlier this month at the age of 84.
The funeral service at the National Cathedral in Washington DC was instead packed with old-school Republicans who held power in Cheneyâs political era. Bush delivered the eulogy at the 11am service. The former president, 79, avoided mention of any power struggles with his vice-president and said: âThey donât come any better than Dick Cheneyâ and âhe was everything a president should expect in a second-in-command.â

A couple of minutes earlier, a starstruck usher had told me that the iconic liberal TV host was in attendance, though I hadnât quite believed it. But then, yes, there she was. I got a hug from Rachel Maddow at Dick Cheneyâs funeral. Cue the pigs flying. Hell may not yet have frozen over, but on an overcast November morning in Donald Trumpâs besieged capital, there were moments when it seemed like it might have.
