EU Official Tweets Photo Of Trump And Merkel: 'Tell Us What Vladimir Has On You'

Source: Talking Points Memo

A European Union official tweeted a now-viral photo of a stare-down between President Donald Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, joking that Russian President Vladimir Putin has dirt on Trump.

“Just tell us what Vladimir has on you. Maybe we can help,” former prime minister of Belgium Guy Verhofstaft tweeted.




The photo was originally posted to Merkel’s Instagram, where it was described as a “spontaneous meeting between two working sessions.”

Verhofstaft was likely referencing the U.S. special counsel investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and salacious allegations in the Christoper Steele dossier about Putin possessing incriminating information on Trump.

But we don't want you, man. You're small time. We're after bigger fish. Why don't you try to help yourself out here? You can talk to me, or you can talk to my partner. Hint: You don't want to talk to my partner. He's...he's...kinda short-tempered, you know what I mean? Come on, man. In your own words..."

Every single action he takes regarding our allies is exactly what pootie-poot-poot would want.

It will take years for this nation to come back from the damage he's done with his incompetence, profound ignorance, utter corruption, treasonous acts, lack of insanity, immorality, amazing stupidity and sociopathy.

He just cannot empathize with anyone or any group, and has real difficulty connecting the dots.

The worst president this nation has ever had.
