Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    emptywheel Retweeted Steffen Seibert

    Sometimes I wonder whether Merkel, because it has been so long that she's been one of a few or only women in the group and therefore wearing color where everyone else is in gray or navy, consciously mobilizes this for photo ops.https://twitter.com/RegSprecher/status/1005475391920844801 …

        On the subject of Merkel and color, you should really see Tracey Ullman's hilarious send up of the Chancellor:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5WPVLljm1A …

        My father was German. He really had a thing about blue. Navy especially but he also went in for the 'powder' blue.

        I worked for an attorney who always wore a dress to court. She wanted to stand out from the men.

        I used colorful suits business meetings to stand out. Especially when I was junior. I suspect you are correct.

        She's a very deliberate, canny person. I would not doubt it.

        Yes, and May is in white right next to her. I think when in groups they are almost always in colors, not dark blue, gray or black. In lineup yesterday Merkel wore green and May purple.
