Gutfeld on The Five provided the perfect line as the image of the prevaricator and ditherer-in-chief appeared on the studio screen:

Imagine all the tourists who saved a lifetime to visit these old stones, and the SS chasing them off so the boy emperor could view the stones alone, at his leisure, without distraction from the rabble.

I am surprise he even knew about it. He was probably talked into going by one of his boy toys.

Too bad my wife and daughters are not here to see this. I’ll have to give them a trip or three over here to see this.
