Angela Merkel’s Big Announcement and the Media Rage at Donald Trump

Listen to the October 29, 2018, episode of the Trumpet Daily Radio Show.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced today that in December she will be stepping down as leader of Germany’s Christian Democratic Union, which she has led since 2000. This is the first step of Ms. Merkel’s departure from the office of German chancellor and marks a massive political turn of events in Germany. I discuss where this is leading on today’s radio show. In the second half, I talk about the deepening division in America after the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre.
