Trump Meets with German Chancellor Angela Merkel Today

HeadlineMar 17, 2017

President Trump is meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel today at the White House. The two are planning to hold a joint press conference—Trump’s first since he claimed, without offering any evidence, that President Obama tapped his phones at Trump Tower. After the press conference, Trump will head back to Florida for his fifth trip to his Mar-a-Lago resort since taking office. The Hill reports Trump has now spent nearly a quarter of his time in office at his private resort.
