Contributing sentiments towards policy:

28% : "Trump, the outlet noted, "instead sat next to former President Barack Obama.
22% : The information was based on a report from Politico, with the headline, "Michelle Obama, who would have sat by Donald Trump, misses Carter funeral.
12% : Whether or not that was due to Trump as well -- as you might have heard, the Cheney and Trump families are not especially friendly at the moment and the former veep's daughter may be getting a preemptive pardon from the current president before President-elect Trump takes office -- one doesn't know.
6% : However, it's still worth noting that both the Cheneys and Michelle Obama were among the most vociferous campaigners against Trump on the campaign trail, with the former first lady once implying that a vote between Harris and Trump was, for men, a vote between women's "lives" and their "anger and disappointment.
4% : As for the facts, the claim that Michelle Obama missed the services for Jimmy Carter because she would have to sit next to Donald Trump doesn't hold water with what's known.
