George HW Bush funeral: Trump pays respects at US Capitol

US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania have paid their respects to President George Bush as he lies in state at the US Capitol.
Mr Trump made a brief visit to the rotunda, where the public can visit the coffin until the funeral tomorrow.
Mr Trump has in the past clashed with the Bush family but will attend the funeral service.
Mr Bush, who died on Friday aged 94, will later be buried at his Texas home alongside his wife, Barbara.
His coffin earlier left Texas to a 21-gun salute and was carried to Washington on board Air Force One – temporarily renamed Special Air Mission 41 in homage to the late president.
