President-elect says ‘I’ll be there’ after being a fierce critic of Carter on the campaign trail ahead of November’s election

Donald Trump said Tuesday that he’s planning to attend the funeral of former president Jimmy Carter.

Asked about it as he walked into a New Year’s Eve party at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, the president-elect responded: “I’ll be there.” Pressed on whether he’d spoken to members of Carter’s family, Trump said he’d rather not say.
