Obama and Clinton both attended the funeral of Israeli statesman Shimon Peres, and the president offered the 42nd Oval Office occupant a ride home on Air Force One. 

 

But Obama appeared to grow impatient when Clinton, a well-known schmoozer, trailed behind in boarding the aircraft. 

 

Britain’s Sky News captured footage of Obama, standing inside the plane, clapping three times then shouting “let’s go” down to the tarmac. The comment was apparently directed toward Clinton, who was not in the shot.

Obama later walked out to the top of the staircase and shouted, “Bill. Let’s go, I’ll take you home,” as he gestured with his arm toward the aircraft.  

 

Clinton was later seen walking up the stairs to board the plane. When he reached the top, he spread his arms and Obama shook his hands. They patted each other on the back as they walked onto the plane.
