Does seeing Trump from the terrace of the Superdome count? If not then none.

I've met 41 and 43, but not while either was POTUS. 41 signed a pic "Best wishes yada yada ... George Bush" and sent it to Ms NC and me. W was very personable.

Clinton
Both when they gave speeches in my hometown.
I did get to tour the White House, but not when a president was there.

I was born at the end of Reagan's first term, but I've never seen a president in person.

When I was in school before the Army I worked for a catering company at A&M that was in charge of all events at the Bush library. I'd see him and Barbara quite often, even had the chance to wait on them in their private residence there in the library on numerous occasions. Politically my opinion of him has changed thru the years, but him and his wife were about as nice and down to earth as anyone could be. When I went back to A&M after the Army I picked up the same job and on a few occasions, he actually invited me to sit and have a drink with him as he asked about my time in the Army and in Afghanistan

Carter, after his presidency gave a talk at the University of Virginia when I was in law school there.
Also rans: Fitz Modale, after he had retired. Ran into him at the Minneapolis airport around midnight. Very nice and genuine. Asked me about the Jefferson book I was reading.

Clinton in Baton Rouge walking down the alley next to the former Sunburst Bank building downtown on Florida on his way to De la Ronde Hall.
Saw Trump in NYC at Trump Grille while I was eating lunch.
