A tribute post by Vice President Kamala Harris honoring the late President Jimmy Carter has stirred heated debate online — not for its message, but for who was missing from the photo. The image, shared on Harris’ official social media, showed her alongside Presidents Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama at Carter’s funeral.

However, eagle-eyed viewers quickly noticed that former President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump — who were both present and seated near the Obamas — were cropped out of the photo. The omission sparked immediate speculation, with some calling it “the best photo crop of the decade.”

In her caption, Harris praised Carter’s legacy, writing, “President Jimmy Carter loved our country. He lived his faith, served the people, and left the world better than he found it.” Still, the absence of the Trumps overshadowed the tribute’s intent.

The Carter Center also shared photos that excluded the Trumps, fueling theories of a deliberate snub. What was meant to be a unifying farewell to a beloved leader instead reignited political divisions — proving that, even in mourning, America’s partisan lines remain sharp.
