Barack Obama and Donald Trump were among the former US presidents who attended Jimmy Carter's funeral. A particular video of both has gone viral, where Obama and Trump are seen sitting beside one another, discussing something and sharing some friendly laughs.

After the Carter funeral, Donald held a meeting with Republican governors. Following the meeting, the President-elect attended a press conference, where he was asked about his chat with Barack Obama. Responding to the question, Donal Trump said,

"It did look very friendly, I must say. I didn't realize it… I didn't realize how friendly it looked. I saw on your wonderful network [C-SPAN] just a little while ago, before I came in and I said,' Boy they look like two people that like each other.' And we probably do. We have little different philosophies, right? But, I think we probably do. I don't know, we just got along, but I got along with just about everybody."

He further added,

"We met backstage, you know, before we went on, and I thought it was a beautiful service, but we all got along very well, which is good.

Pointing out how Donal Trump didn't reveal anything about his conversation with the ex-US President, Barack Obama, a user wrote,

"He speaks so cryptic"

Here are some other responses that Trump got for his answer in the press conference:

Trump maintained how he got along with Obama; X users didn't hesitate to give their two cents. A user, who appeared to be a Republican, expressed their worries due to the apparent friendliness among the former US Presidents,

"Actually, this scares me a bit"

Some other replies that the video got are as follows:

"No drama, just straight talk," a user noted Trump's straightforward approach.
"Trump knows how to answer questions!!," another user complimented the future President for his response.
"I don't even feel like I'm living in the same reality I was living in three months ago," someone wrote highlighting the friendly interaction between the political rivals.
"Hahaha! Trump isn't gonna reveal a THING about that!," another chimed in with their opinion.
"Trump looks happier than I've seen him in a long time," a user observed.
"This is right. Different politics shouldn't mean being at war. I think far too many people have forgotten this," another user pointed out the positivity.
"Obviously. There are countless videos of them on Youtube playing Pokemon, Overwatch, Golf With Your Friends, Minecraft," someone jokingly referenced the viral AI voice over clips of the former Presidents.

Although Trump revealed nothing about his chat with Obama, lip-readers have made some guesses about it. According to the New York Post, expert lip-reader Jeremy Freeman suggests that 44th and 45th US Presidents talked about a "matter of importance." Trump seemingly asked the fellow former prez to find a "quiet place" where they can deal with it.
