Interesting question. According to that book on Barack Obama's final days in office, right after the last time he saw Angela Merkel as president he mentioned, "She's alone now" - much like Nancy Pelosi, she had said, "As long as he [Agent Orange] is here, I'm here", but with whom? The UK, a shitshow; Macron, knee-deep in domestic crap; Italy, a permanent parliamentary chaos; etc. Trump on one side, Putin on the other, the rise of Alternative für Dipshits: that was some SERIOUS heavy lifting. Now that she'll feel (I presume) that she can leave the job to someone else, I haven't checked the candidates, but stepping in those shoes... yikes.
