The specifics of the conversation are not yet known, but as per Freeman's analysis, they were likely talking about international agreements.

"I've pulled out of that. It's the conditions. Can you imagine that?" Trump said at one point, leaning toward Obama.

Trump later addressed his friendly chat with Obama, stating that he didn't realise that the conversation appeared so friendly.

“I didn’t realise how friendly we appeared,” Trump told a reporter from his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida after the funeral. 

“I said, ‘Boy, they look like two people that like each other.’ And we probably do. We have a little different philosophies, right? But we probably do. I don’t know. We just got along. But I got along with just about everybody.”
