Trump to attend George H W Bush's funeral: White House

President Donald Trump will attend the state funeral of former president George H W Bush, who has died at 94, the White House said Saturday.

Trump's spokeswoman said: "A state funeral is being arranged with all of the accompanying support and honours. The president will designate Wednesday, December 5th as a National Day Of Mourning. He and the first lady will attend the funeral at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC."
A book published last year said Bush voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election and called Donald Trump a "blowhard" who was driven by "a certain ego."
The revelations were contained in historian Mark Updegrove's "The Last Republicans."
"I don't like him," the elder Bush told Updegrove in May 2016 before the elections in November of that year "I don't know much about him, but I know he's a blowhard. And I'm not too excited about him being (our) leader."
His son George W Bush left his ballot blank and said of Trump: "This guy doesn't know what it means to be president."
