If you get the fashion police going, please put me on the list. I’ll never forget Chelsea wedding dress suggestions….

It looks like Trump did offer his hand at the end of their speech....probably for the press. But then again...I'm not sure he was motioning for her to go first....after watching their entire exit.

Regardless of how "strong" she appeared...she knows President Trump was/is way ahead of her.

A fashion police thread DOES sound wickedly delightful...

He did shake her hand if photos are any indication. Maybe
in talking they both revealed that they aren’t all that
enthused about handshakes due to germs. Or maybe they just
forgot. Or maybe neither wanted to overdo it.

Merkel is an East German Communist. They always dress ugly, and hate beauty.

I agree. The pantsuit does her no favors. With her body shape she needs to wear a longer jacket.

Those not familiar with the NY Post think it is a conservative paper which it is not. Remember they were the scumbags that published naked pictures of Melania on their FRONT PAGE for two day straight and keep the pictures up on their website for a week.

I dunno. Merkel doesn’t represent me or my country. And Our Melania needs no ‘policing’ ;-)

She dresses appropriately for who and what she is.

Angela Merkel, not my German Chancellor!

LOL!

I was once receiving an award from a man I didn’t like much at all; at the end of his obligatory paean to my accomplishments, I stuck out my hand real fast, to AVOID the hug. Got the hug forced on me anyway :-(

Merkel timed her visit with President Trump in hopes to get a popularity bounce back in Volklund.

It didn’t work. Trump did not hide his testiness with the world-without-borders, progressive globalist Merkel.

Angela is on her way out and Trump took her to the woodshed.

Liberal lefty pundits are outraged, especially feminist
journalists such as A. B. Stoddard, who bristled at Trumps “conduct” with Merkel.

The message is clear to NATO, (populated with Globalist socialist Euro-tweenie leaders who tremble at the feet of Putin,) and the Trump message to Germany: We are now playing hard ball: send your best team and play your best game. Merkel could not even get out of the dug out.

Germany also must secure it’s borders or cease to exist.

Trump’s “conduct” towards Merkel was fine, A.B. Stoddard take a Midol.

Chelsea would have looked smashing in this…with the veil pulled over her face, of course:

That's really outside my area of expertise. I'm just an amused observer.
