I think I disagree.

Hillary and the Bushes come from old money and Melania came here after she was already on another level.

Barack Obama, Bill CLinton, and Laura Bush all come from probably middle/upper middle class, Bill and Laura being the children of parents who worked hard to get there, for Obama that was a result of Grandpa and, even more so, Grandma, who was a bank president(rare for a female then).

Michelle Obama was the child of a city water plant employee and a homemaker who became a secretary at a Spiegel's catalog store when Michelle started high school.

Some probably have some understanding, albeit limited and distant.

But since this was at a funeral, I feel certain they all have an understanding of grieving, loss and sorrow. Those things have no regard for class and social standing.
