Mashable's step by step guide to everything wrong with the Merkel/Trump handshake photo op

Yes, I put her name first -- she's the leader of the free world.

And I can't fault Angela Merkel for those expressions. I wouldn't want to shake hands with Trump, either.

1. Has Loser 45 always pitched forward when he stands?

He looks like he's about to lose his balance

3. Certainly since running for potus last year. He walks bent over like an old, old man.

I never could understand the memes about Hillary being "old" and "sick," when just looking at Trump was enough to put the lie to that by comparison.

4. Old man balance along with poor eyesight?

Not fat-shaming here, but added weight around the lower torso also affects the lean. As "active" as he appears with his tennis and his golf, he spends a lot of time sitting - and tweeting and his posture while sitting has always been poor; pictures of him behind his desk typically showed him using the "lean forward and listen" posture - and he always seems to lean when writing... not to mention that bent over the phone posture people who text, tweet, or play games on their phones while standing (or walking) a lot tend to develop.

His balance is probably shot.

2. I think that Merkel should be awarded "best facial

expressions" of the year. Maybe even the decade.
