This time the media hype surrounding a White House meeting is no wild exaggeration. When President Donald Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel finally get together on Friday, the leaders of the West’s two most powerful countries are sure to come off more like an odd couple than two close allies chewing over plans for some joint enterprise. And for good reason. Merkel and Trump are not only polar opposites as people, but they share little in terms of international outlook.

Angela Merkel can suck rocks.

Angela Merkel, whether she wants the job or not, is the West’s last, best hope.

If that's true, the West is doomed.

It's politico. Regular Pollyannas, that bunch.

I'm confused the headline says one thing, but then in the story it states Merkel is meeting with Trump? :huh?:

I think it has something to do with Merkel enabling the biggest invasion of Germany since 1945.
