Buckley who lived to 100 years and 162 days I don't know if he actually became a candidate so not sure if this would count. James Buckley was never a presidential candidate. The draft movement you are referring too, was led by Senator Jesse Helms to prevent Ronald Reagan from securing the Republican nomination in 1976. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sod's Law 443 Posted November 6 Could he refuse a state funeral if he really really doesn't want Trump involved with it anywhere? He (or his family) could have a plan B for a smaller scale local burial with ex-president Biden invited as a guest speaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He (or his family) could have a plan B for a smaller scale local burial with ex-president Biden invited as a guest speaker. In theory, but I doubt his family would refuse if offered. They might not invite Trump to it, or at least to speak during it, but I really don't think they would refuse outright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
livingbygrace 311 Posted November 6 I am sure Trump would be at the D.C funeral but I am sure also the family can choose who they want to speak.. The sitting President does not have to speak do they? If the family member said they wanted Biden I am sure it would be arranged that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDMUND901 34 Posted November 6 Before Carter’s vice president Mondale died in 2021 in his last email he stated his satisfaction that he could let go with Biden in the White House to carry on. I could see Carter waiting Trump out for 4 years until another Democratic President is elected or sworn in. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
