Paul Begala: Trump ‘Met the Minimum Standards of Decency and That’s News’

RUSH EXCERPT: 
TAPPER: "Welcome back. And we’re still chatting with our panel about that moment at the bush 41 funeral when the trumps walked in and the air turned ice cold as he hit the pew. And Paul, one thing I’ve seen with a lot of criticism of President Trump and social media and elsewhere, I have seen some conservatives criticizing Hillary Clinton who nodded at Melania trump but did not acknowledge the president of the United States."
BEGALA: "He didn’t reach all the way across two or three other people to shake her hand.
TAPPER: "So it’s his fault.
BEGALA: "Of course. It always is. But so what? You know, our president met the minimal standards of decency. And that’s news. Okay? I’m more impressed with the Bush family. Having worked against George H.W. Bush, helped defeat him. What largess of spirit that they included our president. They did. Because urban served in the army, he went to west point and he knows, you salute the uniform, not the man or the woman. And the bush family honored the office of the presidency today by including our president, even though he has said some rather unkind things to George W. Bush, Jeb Bush and George H.W. Bush, and I think that shows a largess of spirit on the part of the bush family that far overshadows a snub."
