Trump Accuses Merkel Of "Ruining Germany" In Response To Time "Person Of The Year" Snub
It took Trump just about an hour to form the appropriate media response to being "snubbed" by Time editors for Person of the Year 2015 in favor of Angela Merkel (and also the leader of the Islamic State, al-Baghdadi). He framed it, as he usually does, in Twitter format:
I told you @TIME Magazine would never pick me as person of the year despite being the big favorite They picked person who is ruining Germany
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 9, 2015
And yes, it's easy to accuse Trump of being a sore loser (even though he continues to win: remember for the media mogul, it is all about media presence, and unwittingly Time contributed to his cause), but the reality as Reuters reports, is that once again, Trump may be - in his traditionally very politically incorrect and hyperbolic way - spot on.
Read the following and decide if Trump may be, in fact, right:
In past years, Angela Merkel has been feted like a superstar at annual meetings of her Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party, earning thunderous ovations for defending German interests in the euro crisis and facing down Vladimir Putin over Ukraine. But a CDU congress in the southwestern city of Karlsruhe next week is shaping up to be a very different affair. Under intense pressure from conservative allies to reduce the flood of refugees into Germany, the 61-year-old chancellor faces the biggest test of her authority from within the party in years.
The influential youth wing of the party has openly defied her in the run-up to the glitzy two-day event by demanding she agree to an "Obergrenze", or cap on the number of asylum seekers Germany accepts - a step she has repeatedly rejected on the grounds it would be impossible to enforce.
Her Bavarian allies, the Christian Social Union (CSU), have been pressing for a cap for months, and even some of Merkel's own ministers are lobbying openly for a tougher stance from the chancellor, who marked 10 years in office last month and must decide by next autumn whether she will seek a fourth term in 2017.
"Merkel has never endured such sharp criticism from within her own ranks since becoming chancellor," read a front-page editorial in conservative daily newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung on Monday. "Under no circumstances can she allow the congress to approve a resolution on refugee policy that includes the word 'Obergrenze'."
'CATASTROPHIC MOOD'
But some CDU members described the mood in the party as abysmal.
For the first time in years, off-the-record conversations with lawmakers in Berlin are littered with criticisms of Merkel, echoing the era before she became chancellor when a cabal of conservative men worked behind the scenes to undermine the protestant pastor's daughter from communist East Germany.
Last week, former Saxony justice minister Steffen Heitmann became the first prominent member of the CDU to announce he was leaving the party. In a letter to Merkel which was leaked to the media, he said he had never felt "so foreign in my own country".
The atmosphere could not be more different than it was back in 2012, when at a CDU congress in Hanover, Merkel was re-elected party leader by 98 percent of delegates, a score so high that German reporters jokingly likened it to the sham elections of East German leaders during Merkel's youth.
"The mood among conservative members of parliament is really catastrophic right now," said one senior CDU lawmaker, declining to be named. "Merkel is totally isolated."
"She needs to wake up," said another top ranking party member. "Merkel's solution to this crisis depends on the goodwill of people like (Russian President Vladimir) Putin and (Turkish President Tayyip) Erdogan. It simply won't work."
And now, ironically enough, Donald J. Trump

Trump at least talks shit about Western leaders, while the rest of them just suck each other's butts
Here we go again...god damn it.
Trump spot on as usual.
Peopl don't want the truth cause they can't handle it.
"He’s so disruptive to the party system, and I enjoy that too, but I think he’s a man that if conditions deteriorate — which they can, see I work on the assumption that the world is no more stable than Greece, and if those conditions come — people want to be told what to do. People listen to him, and believe he may be raising white horses someplace and he’s going to ride in. Because he is almost the opposite of a libertarian, because it’s not like ‘I want to give you your freedom and your liberty to run your life as you choose. Your civil liberties are absolutely yours, you can’t hurt anybody, it’s your own money you can spend it any way you want.’ But he sounds like the person: ‘I know the answers and I’m going to do this and I’ve done this, I’ve done this, this and this.’"
- Ron Paul
This guy Trump truly has all the makings of the next Hitler. That makes him no different than most of the contenders out there to be sure. I wish Ron Paul would run again so that there could actually be some choice. As it is I may just stay home (again) on Election Day.
If people decide to stay home and retain their representative right then they should NOT have a politician represent them!
Germany was "ruined" 70 years ago.
How about 101 years ago. Never recovered from 1914.
Actually, they DID recover - quite miraculously (due mostly to placement of honest money) - and that was why they had to be destroyed.
I thought the Germans impeached her?
Trump nails that hundin Merkel.
Enjoying Trump messing with politics all over the world now.
Apparently the left has come unhinged and is calling for Trump's death on twitter! LOL I guess that's OK. If anyone tweeted death to [fill in your favorite identity group], the FBI would be stopping by.
For sure.
I despise Trump! He's a narcissistic sociopath incapable of considering anyone but his own interests.
His interests are at direct odds with most of the US government. As president, that will either restore some needed balance, or result in nuclear war.
If I had to vote today, I'd vote for Trump. It's not a damned popularity contest.
With mis/disinformed citizens like these ^^^ who needs terrorists?
Hiler WAS Time's man of the year. Merkel is their (the globalists) puppet, too.
The Zio bankers hate Trump
The Zio-Media hates Trump
The republicons hate Trump
The democraps hate Trump
Even Hairy Pothead hates Trump....
HOW CAN AMERICA GO WRONG WITH TRUMP?
America and Donald Trump FCK YEA!!!
I didn't know we invented sushi!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R5A0pg4oN8
You forgot that cuckservatives also hate trump.
Nailgun Mr Trump?
Like Ron Paul as a person. Fucking hate him as a politician. He and his son are completely inept at fighting the attacks on their libertarian positions. If they had half of Trumps balls they could wipe the floor with the opposition because they are right on most of the issues. Unfortunately like most Libertarians (Capital L) they believe that Libertopia is actually a thing that can be achieved. is Trump really an "Authoritarian" for opposing immigration and trade policies that have destroyed our middle class. Once he's in office does anyone REALLY think Trump will be a drug warrior? Does anyone think he's going to commission a task force to snatch Snowden out of Russia? I think trump is a stealth, real world libertarian (small L) who is saying what he needs to to get elected. If either Paul possessed a 10th of Trump's guile they might have had a real chance at the presidency #Trump2016
Paul's son shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as his father. The son sucks at the Zionist teat.
"a 10th of Trump's net worth"
FTFY
+1000!!! Bravissimo!!
That's just stupid. Why does Ron Paul has the highest respect of certain people today.
Do you think you would still Like Ron Paul as a person today, if he had pulled a Trump 20 or 30 years ago?
I'd fucking LOVE him as a person if he had done that! Because once he got in office he could have effected some REAL fucking change!
The Libertarian, Capital L or Dogmatic Small L, insanity of seeking a utopia that will never come about destroys the potential of half their platform getting implemented and all of us being better off.
Yeah we had some great experiences before along half their platform getting implemented.
Because every time that happens the things getting implemented (or not) were randomly selected, right?
I hope you notice my dripping sarcasm.
The Libetarian party is a 'flanking' mechanism of the left! They keep it alive to siphon off just enough voters for the Dem. to win. That fact became very clear to me, years ago, when a UNC Chapel Hill (leftist college) professor ran for NC senator. It didn't work that time but, it did when one-termer Hagan combined it w/ BHO's fraud vote in 2008.
If you think Trump is giving you nothing but truth and not political rehtoric, then there is no hope for future.
No hope for the future it is!
I had hope for the future once but I got past that.
"I got better."
You look fabulous.
"Don't stop thinking about tomorrow."
"A Safer World and a More Hopeful America"
"Change we can believe in."
Well, duh.
He's right. I don't get it.
The thing is...who the hell orders Time magazine outside of serious mainstream mushroom heads anyways. Even when I am in the waiting room, I dont see anyone reading it.
Yep, Trump is spot on as ususal. And Time just gave him the moral high ground. Merkel is sinking fast and this is just a propaganda stunt to help her out.
this is on par with Jethro Tull winning heavy metal band of the year when the Crue DOMINATED the scene... but I digress...
I think the main stream media is shitting their proverbial pants. Their plastic fantastic world that they sell and push is being met with intelligent resistance in larger numbers. Watch these cocksuckers come after the internet ten fold to quiet down the surge in critical thinking.
Obama hates social media with a vengeance.
Does he confuse it with critical thinking?
So Obama and zio-kweer Cuckoldberg aren't butt buddies? You're kidding me, right? Didn't they have an Obamacare sleepover?
Yeah but Jethro Tull >>>> Crue.
Crue is 80's 'heavy metal' which....sucked. Also Jethro Tull is WILDLY more influential. More albums, more genres, and just better music overall. Crue was just another 80's band with a few hits. Who cares if they dominated the scene?
Backstreet boys 'dominated' the scene too at one point. But no one even remembers or cares about them nowadays.
Consider the problem of being an European leader in the era after 9/11 The False Flag Operation. Can't trust your own intelligence services, they help the Americans, depend on the Americans for data and technology to help tap your phones and don't bother telling you.
The US organizes large-scale operations that disrupt the ME and the last produced an enormous stream of refugees that disrupt your society and give the most authoritarian elements political ammunition, and nobody understands the humanity of your citizen's responses.

You'all do realize WHO is TIME Magazine...
Run by juice no doubt.....I could look it up, but I'd bet the stack on it.
My last pay check was $9500 working 12 hours a week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 15k for months now and she works about 20 hours a week. I can't believe how easy it was once I tried it out. This is what I do... www.wallstreet34.com
***NEWSFLASH***
this just in- Time Warner has agreed to replace Angela Merkel as person of the year and give the title to Charlotte McKinney...
-DEVELOPING-
Maybe Trump could be PM of Australia, not much else, since he is mentally unfit to govern.
He would make a great Mrs. Garrett for a broadway revival of The Facts of Life.
Maybe Trump could be PM of Australia
Probably would give them back their guns...when did the Men of Thunder from down under become such pussies?
Trump will make America great again and most likely adopt Australia as a colony since they seem incapable of governing themselves.
They're changing the name of Melbourne to "Melbournistan."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_suffrage_in_Australia
The current and most recent former occupants of the White Hut have proven beyond any reasonable doubt that mental fitness is not a prerequisite to governing the USSA.
Who is mentally fit to govern? The Hildebeast who should be in prison for at least five different things? Some religious bigot who wants to turn the US into a Christian version of Al-Qaeda and set us back 500 years or whenever the Age of Enlightment was? What about former secretary Carla who managed to wipe out tens of thousands of jobs when she took over the controls, Or the governator of NJ, or any of the other no talent ass clowns?
Bitching about Trump is asking the wrong questions and lamenting something that doesn't matter. What matters is that there's no contender here. If we had a few good candidates, Trump would be long gone. THAT's the problem. So stop bitching about Trump already.
Merkel is America's faithful serf as she has been spied upon intensely since at least 2002. And the fact that she got the Presidential Medal of Freedom from the Nobel Prize Winner in 2011 confirms that. Now this honor from Time is more confirmation of her serving American interests.
German Intelligence Agency BND Helped NSA Spy On France, EU: Reports
German intelligence agencies spied on European officials on behalf of the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), according to media reports on Thursday. Germany's foreign intelligence service BND had conducted surveillance on French officials and European targets, Deutsche Welle reported, citing local reports.
The BND is believed to have provided over 40,000 instances of signals intelligence (SIGINT) to the NSA, including conversations procured through phone taps, conducted from the BND’s Bad Aibling outpost in Bavaria. The reports did not indicate the timing or duration of the spying.
The reports also alleged that the Chancellery, the office of German leader Angela Merkel and the overseer of BND, had turned a blind eye to the NSA spying to ensure that Berlin maintained access to U.S. counterterrorism intel.
http://www.ibtimes.com/german-intelligence-agency-bnd-helped-nsa-spy-fra...
BND is a branch of NSA/CIA, it was built by US folks after WW2 and fully supports american plans and goals.
No one should be surprized by them doing the worst things NSA/CIA have been doing across the world.
Google Reinhard Gehlen. It should tell you all you need to know about the CIA and the BND. Rockefeller and his Fascist minions won when Truman got elected.
That fits Time's history - if given a choice, they'll usually choose the person that's done the most damage. I heard they were coming out with a magazine for adults next year, btw. Not mine, but so good.
Right on. Adolf got the honors 1938.
Bernie Sanders is the one who got snubbed. Why do media conglomerates like CNN and TIME even have polls if they choose to ignore them?
Most media outlets don't even mention Rand Paul in campaign "news."
Sucked up to Mitch McConnell one to many times.
Yeah.....we notice crap like that.
Bernie Sandals is the one who got snubbed? You gotta be fucking kidding me. He belongs so far down the list you'd need mining equipment to find him (which is on sale, by the way, with the collapse in commodities).
If anyone got snubbed it's Putin. He's be a shit-ton higher on the list than Bernie Sandals.
The Hoffmanns can find him!
I was expecting Time would make me person of the year again by putting a mirror on the cover. That was back when things were so hopey changey.
One day it will be a gym sock encrusted in human ejaculate.
I thought Obama already won?
Wins the internets for today.
Merkel will never be de-throned: she was just compared to "Jesus" 2 weeks ago by the German Pariliament.
Does that mean they want to off her by cruicifiction?
Merkel is trying to do what Hitler couldn't , completely and permanently destroy Germany.
WTF are you babbling about?
She's working a Zionist agenda, not the agenda of the Deutsche Volk. Dilute the population, cause infighting, destroy the master race once and for all.
She's doing it, and sadly, she's not even trying. Who the fuck knows what that Merkel moron is actually trying to do? I guess she's trying to do nothing, because that's the only way you dont' make a mistake - just do nothing. But there's a steep price to be paid for doing nothing.
Hitler attempted the EXACT opposite. Merkel is led by forces the same as what predicated and prompted Hitler's rise to power, by the overwhelmingly popular support of the German ppl. The jew propaganda about Hitler is very pervasive. The truth most ppl that trash talk hitler have very little academic knowledge to back up their point of view. Hitler was a liberator that was crushed by the forces of darkness. All the same elements ruining America today are exactly the same as they were in Germany then, with the same sorts of characters beholden of the same ideology. You are not alone, but you really should check your facts and study the matter. It is the key to global redemption.
Germany's laws have some good aspects that make their parliamentary branch of government somewhat reasonable. But for fuck's sake put in some term limits already. All those chancellors that stayed for too long grow roots, no good.
Merkel is a dark creature, a slave to the UN and to the insane ideology of "humanism", aka extended self pity.
its called christian protestantism.
Her father was a protestant preacher.
Self pity in christian religion = penitence. Its the very foundation of christianity. Original Sin. I know Luther did consider it as important as the Catholics, repentence stays foundation. To win preordained eternal bliss for the believer.
Move the UN to Yemen.
Thbe Germans have turned into the french
Now that is a real insult!!!
merkel did one outstanding thing:
to block muricas direct war-course in the ucraine thingy.
that for sure was a good deed
Jimmy
Perversely, what you say is true. However, since I stopped reading Time more than 20 years ago I have no intention of reading whey Merkel was "chosen".
Wake me up when a nation thriving on Muslim traditions starts bringing in Christian/secular refugees.
Time to get the hell out of the Middle East. Period. America has all the energy she needs.
"Wake me up when a nation thriving on Muslim traditions starts bringing in Christian/secular refugees."
Best comment in months, K-man. You should put it on bumper stickers.
The ISIS thugs murder Syrian Shiites, Alawites and Christians with equal fervour. But all them damn Ayrabs (sorry 'Muslims') are the same to the likes of Trump.
We need to bomb Germany anyway for revenge on the VW scam.
Germany does make some good kitchen knives.
Donald the Hammer.
Couldn't give a fuck about politics, but the Donald shaking things up is priceless.
Keep pounding these vermin politicians Donald. The masses are loving it!!!
It's great to hear real opinions for a change, not just a tide of total controlled bullshit.
I have to thank the Trolls for any negatives. Your opinions are welcome as well.
Who in their right mind would downvote you...?
;)
Mutti Out "tits" Donald's "funny blond toupée" ???
Can't have that! Megyn's rant can't be repeated.
Thats an outrage!
Thats like tweeking a Taliban's turban!
There will be consequences. Like invading Poland once more; Poland in Bavaria of course! (I don't think Donald is good in geography)
First he took out the Mehicans, then he took out the Moslems, now he'll take out german tits !
Whats next? the House of Commons?
falak
Trump isn't afraid to say it smells like shit in the room. Unlike Hiliary, whose aroma follows her around everywhere.
Let me know next time a Muslim country helps destitute Christians.
Time to get the hell out of the Middle East- everyone hates America, but shamelessly begs the U.S. for protection or protection money.
Time for Regime Change in the good ol" USA.
I don't support any religion per se; and certainly not Islamofascism.
Don't make this a christian vs Muslim issue. It was not one until the US took out secular rulers all over the ME to build their Oil Hegemony based on "Saud-US" forever deal.
That was a POLITICAL decision. Saud has made it into religious issue since they invaded (using Saddam as sunni surrogate with US backing) shia Iran. Etc. Etc. Etc. They have a rabid moslem sect ideology. Its not mainstream.
From the West's perspective : Its all political for OIL. That was why GWB/Cheney invaded Iraq.
Yes the US should leave ME. And let the ME settle its medieval problems based on religion that the SAUD princes have made into Islamofascism (more so than Ayatollah Iran (the irony)) with the blessing of neo-con America; who like to play divide and rule as it keeps their Oil options open. But that is backfiring today BIGTIME.
How "head up ass" can the Us elites get?
Trump is one who flew out of "the cuckoo's nest" as he is playing at making the US into a Militarist and outright despotism type ideology. "We hate all that is NOT us!"... No more a "managed" democracy of the Red/Blue Oligarchy but something more dangerous.
Nobody can buy a US Fuhrer, nobody who is "head screwed on" and not a psychopath.
How about tomorrow? Where are our generals when we need them? Argentina's got it all over us.
Time is still publishing a magazine?
They’re working on a method of
distributing it in LIQUID form …
They're gonna call it “Time in a Bottle™”
I thought it was a form of sedative only to be found in doctors and dentists waiting areas.
Although good for free advertising/campaigning and I love me, Trump needs to concentrate on lifting the USA out of its recliner and back on its feet.
It is better if USA just gets fat in its recliner and then slumbers away while watching back episodes of "Law and Order." World would be a better place.
Maybe we could become the next Denmark...a happy, peaceful country...
Should not be much longer now before the 'Hollywood Celebrities' and the women on The View start announcing their intent to renounce their citizenship and leave the USA if Donald Trump gets the nomination or is elected.
Too bad they are just idle threats...wish they would act on it. Sigh....

By the time Urkel is done there won't be a Germany left, which of course is the idea in the NWO agenda.
she is the MAN of the year.
The tears of the offended; THEY ARE DELICIOUS!
In this case, given his whiny tweet, Twump is the offended. I agree that his bitchy little tears are delicious!
Trump doesn't get offended, he just gives payback.
In this case he is right and he just garnered more publicity than most of his opponents do in a month.
I doubt Trump is that impressed with her beauty either.
DT has a very hot wife. Hotter than pretty much any other babe connected to the politicians no doubt.
Merkel!?! Are you serious? She killed Germany. Literally. Welcoming the daesh with open arms. Now they are taking it over, destroying it, just like they did their homelands.
Man, this conspiracy runs deep and wide. A lot of folks need killing in this world.
You have some link to back that up?
Can you back up 'conspiracy'? Can you provide cases when killings actually improved the world?
Trump is an idiot bankster made jew billionaire and Merkel is a communist (most billionares are more communistic than capitalistic)
He is a loud mouthed, ignorant, uneducated, uncultured, christian leaning, rights hating, federal government worshipping, bafoon.
He has the right wingers locked down like a christian soldier blowing up a muslim wedding party with helfire missiles.
He personifies the typical 'merican idiot.
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

"the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
Where have you been for the last few decades ?????
So was Andrew Jackson, arguably our best President...
Jackson was in no way a bafoon.
He was a military genius.
Whatever dude. We got your line of crap. Heard all our lives and ruined our country. Time to take back what was stolen. Greenpeace is looking for someone to take off their clothes and lie down in front of a store somewhere to protest something. Why are you here? For your rivitting insightful commentary? Go on. Some commie group somewhere needs you. Get lost.
Merkel: the ugly face of the NWO.
Kind of has me wondering if any of the rest of the litter she was born with survived??
D. Jerkoff Trump narcissist can't leave the limelight for fear of losing it.
D. Jerkoff Trump is a goof.
Jerkoff for President.
The woman arrives from Saudi Arabia and isn't vetted ??????
And you call Trump a jerkoff.
D. Jerkoff Trump was named Jerkoff by his parents, Kayman. I actually called him a goof.
New definition of Terrorist: a nursing mother who throws her baby under a bus. Vet THAT.
So which candidate do you like, choosing only from U.S. Citizens please?
Honestly, I would vote for the Neuroscientist given that I come from Experimental Psychology myself, and know that Neuroscientists are the smartest of the bunch in my field. Furthermore, he is an African American, and undoubtedly very sensitive to racism given that he grew up in America. And I have yet to hear anything untoward about him. I don't like the Bush family, or the Clinton family. Dr. Carson is the best choice due to his background, and formal education.
From your comments it is obvious you were the experimental part of experimental psychology, and the experiment did not work out well.
Poor little Canadian "master of universe" has knickers in knots over Trump. All in for pretty Dustbin Trudeau. Waiting in line behind Barry.
I did not vote for Trudeau, and I am a Progressive Conservative not a Neanderthal knuckledragger.
Just shows how stupid the American electorate is......
Absolutely -- they elected Obama. Of course the German elected Merkel, busily destroying her own country and most of Europe, the Brits elected Cameron who gives new meaning to spiv, the French elected Hollande who presides over the continued muslim takeover and destruction of his country while he's still trying to get his eyes uncrossed.
Maybe American voters aren't so unique after all.
These media pissing matches are so boring. That anybody at all wants to hear anything from or about Donald Trump shows how far we are from having a viable and functional society.
The Don keeps hitting raw nerves, mainly because the dim, dumbed down masses, haven't heard anyone speak the truth in so long. The media and oligarchs are having a hissy fit, because he "won't play ball."
I hope he keeps swinging for the fences, for "it riles them that he perceives the web they weave."
"Hey! Who the f woke me up? Whoa, where am I? What is this place?" It's the world you created because you have been eating bulls* all your life.
A new poll indicates that 68% of my supporters would vote for me if I departed the GOP & ran as an independent. https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump/posts/10156389951165725:0 …
1:58 PM - 8 Dec 2015 --- Sept 4, 2015 The billionaire businessman said Thursday he had signed the Republican National Committee's "Loyalty Pledge," which says he will support the eventual nominee and not run as an independent or on another party line. http://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2015/09/03/437198983/will-don...Trump should have also made the RNC sign that they'd support him if he was the candidate.
Trump is a big whiny crybaby. Waaaa, I didn't win a magazine award! When the rubber meets the road Chump is a lightweight and a loser.
HHH = hot heavey hasbara
Hahaha, yeah, DT is a real loser ... builds his own RE businesses from the ground up, ends up with a few billion, and has the attention of the entire world. ... surely you are a loser, living in some s_hole of an apartment barely getting by, with a lot of debt, no assets, no vision, no plan, no talent, just cackling away on the internet bcz u got nothing else to do.
Yes Germany will OWN EUROPE LIKE THEY OWN GREECE. Hail to Merkel.
News flash. TIME MAGAZINE PICKS WOMAN WHO IS WRONG ON EVERYTHING AS PERSON OF THE YEAR.
Sub title Yes the world has gone mad.
Maybe Trump wants to be in the same company as Ayatollah Khomeini.
Anybody who votes for Trump is voting for a new Isolationist America. Because by the time Trump gets in power, IF he is elected, there are NO other countries that will be talking to America. Forget cooperation, it won't exist.
It is high time for America to close its doors to all foreigners and imports. Make everything in the USA and get the 94 million uncounted unemployed back to work. Go it alone - we don't need the rest of the world.
Agreed, sir!
All the shipping of products around the world is economically inefficient. There's no reason cheap shit needs to be made in Asia - except that they work for slave wages.
North America, as many other "zones", have all the necessary resources to produce the demands of the domestic population. Look to the Swiss model for an example of "protectionism" being a net positive for an economy.
Wow, did you get an A in TV Watching 101 in high school? Isolation is a beautiful thing. "I have a dream", Martin Luther king plagiarized, "that all ppl who think like you will leave the country peacefully, so we don't have to forcibly remove ur sorry asses."
I am kind of surprised that Hitlery didn't win. And where by the way is her peace prize?
Lest he be branded as a sore loser, Trump should now Tweet that he's pretty sure he'll also be passed over for People magazine's "Sexiest Man of the Year" cover...
Then wish Merkel all the best.
Germany needs to be wished all the best, not Merkel.
Sorry but Time magazine is a pretty lousy source of information, totally bias and pretty hollow of any worth while substance. The choice of Merkel is just the standard of the magazine nothing more or less.
biasED, totally biasED
sorry pet peeve of mine
