I had a great meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel today. The ties between our two nations are stronger than ever — and I’m excited to welcome her to the White House next month to continue our work.

Does anyone still have a picture of her screaming at Trump with the rest of the G7 looking like they want to beat his ass?

I find it slightly interesting that, after the “disastrous” debate in 2000 where the only thing anyone remembered was how much blush Al Gore was wearing and the GOP ragged him for it, Trump is wearing more blush than Angela Merkel...who, to be frank, could use a little more.

She may not have realized he would be obnoxious enought o make her turn pale. Or, if she did, it may have occurred to her that turning pale would make it stand out, and not have wanted that.

Notice that she isn’t rolling her eyes or showing disapproval and she doesn’t have her clenched fists on her hips. It’s been years since we saw a smile on her face when she looked at one of our Presidents!

She loved working with President Obama. Looks like she's gonna love working with President Biden too.
