Donald Trump apparently left his phone under the cushions of the Blue Room couch. Now that he’s back from “home running” around the world, he’s located his precious, and has begun what’s sure to be a long session of Twitter-based catharsis.
Why single out Germany for his first homecoming Tweet? Well, there’s the way that everyone and their cousin immediately recognized that Angela Merkel was now the de facto leader of western democracy while Trump follows sadly behind—in his pokey golf cart. There’s also the speech that Merkel delivered as a verdict on the United States under Trump following his visit.
Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, Europe’s most influential leader, has concluded, after three days of trans-Atlantic meetings, that the United States of President Trump is not the reliable partner her country and the Continent have automatically depended on in the past.
Mene mene tekel upharsin, Mr. Trump. And no, that’s not German. But flailing out at Merkel wasn’t Trump’s only tweet of the morning. He also found time to complain about the media and coverage of, what else, his connections to Russia.
