I noticed that, something must have been said in the meeting, he wouldn’t even look at her.

Pretty sure that the lack of handshake was Merkel’s idea: the CDU is losing bad in the polls and her folks will be able to spin this as “standing up to Trump”.

I wouldn’t shake her hand either. Why be a fake? Her crazy cooties might be contagious.

Negotiation. He doesn’t do it like official diplomats do whose paychecks rely on the process rather than results while his success relies on results.

I never have liked shaking hands. I don’t want cooties. Also, most people in the world do not shake hands. Here on the west coast I rarely see people shake hands. Maybe it is an east coast thing. Whatever, I would not shake hands with that pig Merkel either.

That looked a little chilly. Looking forward to the presser coming up soon.

I believe that etiquette says a man should not shake a woman’s hand unless SHE offers it first
To: nodwam
Trump reacts to Merkel, who betrayed her country and the entire
West, the way that Barack Hussien reacted to Netanyahu. I approve!

Interesting ... Didn't Bush II hug her once in a spontaneous moment at some Euro conference?
Obama, in spite of bugging Merkel, seemed to have a close rapport with her.

Dora Belair: Look, you work with me, I expect a pro. You don’t even shake hands; you oughta see a shrink!
Mike: Miss Belair, if you feel compelled to grab part of my body and shake it before you can even be friendly, you’ve got far worse problems than you think I have.

No handshake? I'm guessing a good old W. back rub was not offered either.

Not a hug. A back rub. Which rubbed Merkel the wrong way.
See post 17.
To: Puppage
He shook her hand when she got out of the vehicle. I saw that too, on Fox Business. I guess if you don't shake hands 4 or 5 times and in different rooms it doesn't constitute a handshake.
