Did you hear how Trump treats her? News reports came in this week that shocked people here. They say he is extremly rude and agressive towards her in calls. Even caleld her stupid and a slave of Russia. They say merkel stays calm during his rants and insults and counters with facts. Because Trumps agressive behavior Merkel limited the number of people who are present during her calls with Trump.
There is virtually almost no contact between Germany and US governments. They say Merkel had no contact with trump since months, which is a novum, normally a german chancellor and american president caleld at least once a week.
Merkel is a master in silent counter attack though. By ignoreing his rants, she makes him boil. And when he planned G7 meeting, he wanted the head of states in Wahsington, to play normal. Merkel denied a visit and said Corona doesnt allow it. This busted Trumps plans and in last days he threw insults and "punishment meassures against Germany. But mostly hurts his own country with it. Its a sad show...
It looks like Merkel hopes Trump is history by November and mostly ignores him now.
Of course --I've seen how Trump disrespects her, and all women that are powerful, like he did Theresa May. His misogyny was out in plain view and it was embarrassing to watch. I felt so badly for her the way he treated her and she's about ten billion times smarter and more experienced.
I even went to her twitter account to apologize on behalf of all women in the US. LOL! I really did.
