Trump has been mocked after remarking that he has German in his blood while expressing excitement over a proposed future trip to Germany.
MERKEL SNORTED OUT LOUD
Trump’s ancestors come from Kallstadt on the wine route in Rhineland-Palatinate. Merkel had previously stated that she had already invited Trump many times.
“We’ll be there… we’re very honoured by the invitation — and that’s true — and we will be there. Maybe soon”, he said, before adding, “I have German in my blood”, at which Merkel snorted out loud.
