German Chancellor Angela Merkel and US President Barack Obama held a joint press conference today.
But the only memorable question and response was about Donald Trump.
The Wall Street Journal reporter asked Merkel about Donald Trump’s remarks on her “insane” refugee policy.
Merkel welcomed one million third world migrants to Germany in 2015.
Germany is expecting another million this year.
Merkel on #Trump: "First, I concentrate on the task ahead…and I'm looking at great interest of the American campaign."

This was the second day in a row that a world leader got a question about Donald Trump.
2nd day in a row that a world leader gets a question about Trump in front of Obama. (Cameron yesterday, Merkel today) POTUS chuckled.

Trump frequently attacks Merkel’s insane immigration policies in his campaign stops.
Merkel dodged the question.
But Barack Obama then said she’s on “the right side of history” which does not bode well for the German leader.
