Justin Trudeau and Angela Merkel had a candlelit dinner and I am fine with that
Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau visited Berlin this week to meet with German chancellor Angela Merkel. It seems like they had a good time — they hung out in the rain, exchanged gifts and even shared a softly lit candlelight dinner.
Now, some people online seem jealous that these two got to spend so much quality time together. Wild, right?

Me? Nah. I do not care. I do not care that Trudeau got to spend numerous stimulating hours with who is arguably the world's most powerful woman, and I certainly do not care that Merkel got to look at fun #TBT pics of Trudeau while also standing extremely (extremely) close to him.
Nope. I am fine with this! People on Twitter are overreacting.
Never thought I'd be jealous of Angela Merkel but here we go... candlelight dinner with Justin Trudeau.

Now even Merkel. One more for the genre "married women meeting Justin" (cc @blairelliott). #Trudeau pic.twitter.com/vJjmmqRayt

Anyway, it's probably good that I've never hung out with either of them. It would be so much fun — I would take Merkel to a soccer game; Trudeau and I would have a maple syrup water gun fight — that they probably would never want to hang out with anyone else ever again.
Yes. It is better for global security this way.
