Trump looks super annoyed in that clip. No doubt Merkel schooled him on a variety of topics during their private talks, and we know he doesn't like to be made a fool of, especially by a woman.

You might conclude from this that the White House is not very bright

White House sent out an email today highlighting a WaPo piece about Trump's budget...

Bwahahah...and it's still up. What a bunch of donkeys.

Merkel looked pretty smug to me...I think she must have dressed Trump down pretty badly. Forget the handshake, he didn't even look at her during that clip.

"Obamacare is a disaster." Trump probably gets an erection every time he says that. Same with "failing NY Times" and "I won the electoral college".

Trump on the Republican health care bill.

On accusing British intelligence of being behind the 'wiretap':

"We said nothing, we just quoted a certain very talented legal mind who was the one responsible for saying it on television. I didn't make an opinion on it That was a statement made by a very talented lawyer on Fox. So you shouldn't be talking to me, you should be talking to Fox".

Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who was removed from his post by the Trump administration last week, was overseeing an investigation into stock trades made by the president’s health secretary, according to a person familiar with the office.

Tom Price, head of the Department of Health and Human Services, came under scrutiny during his confirmation hearings for investments he made while serving in Congress. The Georgia lawmaker traded hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shares in health-related companies, even as he voted on and sponsored legislation affecting the industry.

Price testified at the time that his trades were lawful and transparent. Democrats accused him of potentially using his office to enrich himself. One lawmaker called for an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, citing concerns Price could have violated the STOCK Act, a 2012 law signed by President Obama that clarified that members of Congress cannot use nonpublic information for profit and requires them to promptly disclose their trades.

The investigation of Price’s trades by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, which hasn’t been previously disclosed, was underway at the time of Bharara’s dismissal, said the person.

And doing it with the sassy-but-terse-by-nature German accent would have made it that much worse for him.

Hopefully she pointed out the contradiction that by cutting UN aid, it will just make the migrant and refugee situation even more difficult to deal with.

My hope is that German intelligence knows things about his Russian connections and she revealed it to him.

To be fair Donald isn't used to grabbing women by the hand.

"Run the government like a business." Well this is how Trump runs his business.

Plus it costs around 150k a day for the security of Trump Tower because his son and wife don't want to live with him.

Trump has spent almost as much on travel in a month as President as Obama averaged per year of his Presidency. If this pace of spending keeps up, Trump will outspend 8 years of Obama in a single year and will come close to spending 5 times as much over four years.

Spoiler!
