The fact that the family's asked for no media/ cameras, is exactly why Trump didn't do his duty. It's all probably best it worked out the way it did. Had Stupid been present, he would have made the solemn occasion all about him. He would have smiled and frankly, family members might have feigned praise and asked to shake his hand and instead knocked him for a loop. There. Put that on camera. Asshole. The POTUS is a thug.
