Addressing US President Donald Trump’s recent attacks against a group of minority congresswomen, Merkel clearly showed her disdain.

“I firmly distance myself from it and feel solidarity toward the attacked women,” Merkel said at her annual summer press conference in Berlin on Friday.

The chancellor said that “people of very different nationalities have contributed to the strength of the American people.”

She added that Trump’s statements “contradict the strength of America.” …

They were not racist. Then again, how would you know?

Hey, Angela! How many “women of color” were there in your precious East Germany, with its Stasi goons?

Wouldn’t be a hoot if when this East German pig leaves office she finds her neighborhood overflowing with several thousand of the millions of moslems that *she* allowed into Europe!

She is basically saying that she agrees with the anti-Semitic views and anti-Israel attitudes espoused by two of the four ‘squad’ members.

Trump didn’t name any names. Everyone else just projected names they felt would fit.

Official East German government documents recovered after the fall of the Wall showed that about one-in-eight East Germans were Stasi informants.They also showed that kids informed on their parents and that PARENTS INFORMED ON THEIR KIDS!

I'd bet my last nickel that Frau Merkel was a Stasi informant.

Also...a few years ago I started (but didn't finish) a book called "Stasi".In it,Simon Weisenthal,the famous concentration camp survivor and Nazi hunter,is quoted as saying that in his opinion the Stasi was *worse* than the Gestapo!

Trump should respond “I distance myself from the Stasi agent running Germany”.

Three, at least. I recall one offering false criticism of Israel over Gaza, calling the events last year a “massacre” on Israel’s part.

Can she be specific about these racist comments? Where did she see them? What did they say?

Because I don’t recall seeing the President ever saying anything about race, or advocating discriminatory policies based on race.

Just ‘shake it off’, B!tch. She’s just upset that she’s considered the worst Chancellor since Hitler.

I read Trumps Twitter post 10 times and I still can’t find where he mentions race.

We distance ourselves from your global socialist, Gaia worshipping, tyrant coddling, money grubbing, ankle biting, dying hypocritical freeloading country.

Leck uns am Arsch.

...reading this article this fine Saturday morning I find myself ALMOST wishing for 100 Russian Divisions to cross the German Border AGAIN.

I GUARANTEE her first phone call would not be to her brand new female defense minister. It would be to Donald Trump.

Oops she made the fatal mistake.
She used the word “racist”.
Ergo, she is an idiot with no comprehension of language and is to be regarded as having the IQ of Occasional Cortex.

The bitch of Berlin knows full well what Trump said. He said go back and then COME BACK afterwords to show us how to fix things.

They ignore the part about “coming back”.

Screw Mercal.

Did she quote Pres Trump so we’ll know what she thinks he said? Did any of those who use that word, ever give proof of their claim? Nope..

And cut that word from society.. it has been used enough! I wish the one accused would tell the accuser.. you are the only one who uses those words.. and I don’t care.. it’s childish and you dont know of which you speak.

If they DID know.. they’d know it’s made up.. he’s no racist and you don’t have a clear thought of your own.. you say what you hear said.. you are weak and dumb.. both together makes a sorry soul..
