   How is that different from your regular answers to regular questions?  You said the same thing you always do.

You are missing the point.
Reporters were yelling out handshake, handshake and Merkel had the WTH look on her face as she turned to him to shake his hand only to

see him sit there like a bump on a log, like a sulking toddler. I bet he was trying to get back at the media because they made fun of him
for almost ripping the hand off other dignitaries with his weirdo behavior.

In some alternate fact reality, Trump's behavior is considered presidential.

Apologies if it went over your head originally,

 

To put it as clearly as we can:

 

While sitting down with Angela Merkel a reporter can be heard asking for a handshake. You can hear the audio in pretty much any copy of the event posted on any website. You hear a "handshake!" in the background. Merkel turns to Trump and actually says "Do you want to have a handshake?" (Or something like that). He doesn't even respond. He doesn't even say "No thank you". He basically continues to stare forward, acting as if she never said anything. I think John Oliver put it best. He was acting like a child who is in trouble and doesn't have anything to explain himself so he just sits there quiet. What the heck was he doing? Having an absence seizure? If he didn't want to handshake, he could at least acknowledge the fact that she spoke words to him. Does he not understand a German speaking English?
