Merkel shaking like a leaf

Holy shit, I've never seen anything like it. Any medical people here to explain it?

It's a brand new dance, to watch and learn! The Angela!

That's definitely not Parkinsons.

YouTube video.

I like and respect her so much. But that's not good! And why doesn't this guy next to her, offer his arm or something?

Fuck the guy next to her. What a jerk.

I think the guy next to her was very focused on the parade as he's still very new at this.

She has unfortunately been showing signs of aging, stress the last few years. There are even articles on it.

Tired Merkel.

Isn't she a diabetic?

....

Trump sent her dick pics. I'd be trembling, too.

It obviously was caused by the Illuminati.

r8 She looks exactly the same she's always looked in those shots to me? The wind didn't help with her hair, sure, but other than that?

Demonic possession?

She's a mid 60's woman, 2 years younger than me. Trust me, you never know from day to day what your body is going do to you.

[quote] Demonic possession?

Possession by Illuminati demons, Father.

Graves Disease?

Wish! Reminds me of getting laid the first time as a teenager. I'm pretty sure I was trembling like that as well. But seriously, that was alarming. She looks like she's about to go.into.a full one seizure

r18 Oh, you bitch!

Everything about her is weird.

r21 Is it? She seems pretty well-adjusted to me. A continental hard-worker without any drama attached to her. Maybe that's why she throws people off.

Bizarre.

How Close Was Merkel to the Communist System?

merkel has plenty of drama, none of it gets translated into english tho since most media nowadays just takes official government reports rather than running their own offices

She’s shivering. It was cold outside.

Last night my bed was shaking..

Low blood sugar. I guess that clown next to her couldn’t be bothered?

Came here to say the same, R28. Blood sugar. Happens to me all the time. I’m hypoglycemic.

Better view of the "shaking,"

r31 Damn, I feel so bad for her. Why can't this happen to Trump instead?

Divine retribution for foisting over a million invaders on Western Europe.

r33 = idiot who is beyond help, divine or otherwise

Obviously the Russians want her gone.

If you would lose your weary blues, shake 'em away!

Could be many reasons - or no reason at all. Fairly common (see link)

My coworker had a similar shaking episode. She has the same build as Merkel, and she has diabetes. She says she gets the spasms after sitting for long periods, and also after getting out of bed in the morning. We were very alarmed by it, but she just continued on with what she was doing like nothing happened, as she is so used to it now. Its probably a side-effect from diabetes and medications for it.

R36 The Russians absolutely do NOT want Merkel gone. She has been a major supporter of the Nord Stream pipeline and has resisted US sanctions that target Russian energy suppliers.

Sydenham Chorea - AKA Saint Vitus Dance

Don't they have doctors in Germany?

It was that beer that got dumped on her that one time. Russians poisoned her.

There have been so many parallels. She will be spending her sad last days holed up in a bunker in Berlin.

This happens to me after I cum.

Guilt

It happened a third time:

Video. For the love of god, can't her doctor(s) do something?!

Do we have any Germans here? What is the domestic press saying about this? Is this something that is being talked about at all?

The videos are super uncomfortable to watch

r49 Yup, especially from this angle where you can see the delegates looking at her.

I found this article in Spiegel Online, so they're obviously not ignoring the issue.

[quote]The deputy government spokeswoman Ulrike Demmer, however, denied health problems at Merkel. "The Chancellor is doing well," Demmer assured several times. Merkel herself spoke at a press conference with the Finnish Prime Minister Antti Rinne. "You do not have to worry," she said.

[quote]Merkel justified the attack with the fact that she is still in the "processing phase" of the attack in mid-June at the reception of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Selenskyj. "It's obviously not quite finished yet, but there is progress," Merkel said.

[quote]At the meeting with Selenskyj , the chancellor had also shaken violently. Only nine days later she suffered another attack at the appointment of the new Justice Minister Christine Lambrecht (SPD) by Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier at Bellevue Palace.

None of those statements make any sense to me. "Processing phase", wtf?

On an unrelated note, the German anthem is really beautiful. And she's obviously singing/muttering the lyrics along, which she really didn't need to do but just shows her devotion to the job to the very end. She's such a pro, I'll miss her when she's gone.

Also on an unrelated note, she looks so very German.

With Trump in Osaka. I just love how much she makes him nervous.

Great video r54

Of course he had to embarrass himself by attacking his domestic political opponents in front of her. "I just passed the TV"... sure, because everyone watches Dem debates in Osaka, you classless turd.

Explanation: she was told she would soon have to endure a sit-down dinner with Donald Trump.

Here's the second episode during a meeting with the German president. Someone actually brought her a glass of water at the end. Text from The Guardian article:

[quote]The 64-year-old’s work ethic and stamina during late-night negotiations has become the stuff of legend since she became chancellor in 2005. She once prided herself on having a “camel-like” capacity to store up sleep. Partially as a result of this reputation, the three televised instances of shaking have fuelled speculation about whether her intense schedule is beginning to take its toll.

[quote]While coverage of the first shaking bout in German media was initially restrained, newspaper columns have since been filled with medical experts speculating about the cause.

Germany is renowned for advanced medical treatments. Surely they can help her?!

I was reading a report that the spy agencies of the world are dying to find out WTF is wrong with her...

I wish her well. Damn...

Brain tumors? Definitely neurological.

Well, maybe she has been attacked by microwaves weapons like those of US employees in China and Cuba? something similar?

Get well soon!

She's fine! She sends her love.

[quote]Germany is renowned for advanced medical treatments. Surely they can help her?!

Exactly, r59. It's not like she's the first person in the world who's ever experienced this. My money would be on decades of sleep deprivation coming home to roost.

I can only imagine the stress levels some of these individuals endure.

Over time and with augmented behaviours, this can impact corporeality. (Looking at you👀 Trump.)

Can think of a few possibilities outside of stress or anxiety. As some have mentioned, neurological problems or autoimmune and/or metabolic disorders.

Whatever it may be, I wish her health and peace.

r63 Trump doesn't experience stress because he doesn't care about anything other than how he's portrayed in the media. And even then, it's more anger than stress. That's also why he seemingly hasn't aged at all since 2016, which is what happens to most US presidents who actually WORK, not golf all the time.

Maybe thyroid problems.

Yes R64.

Anger does impact the human body.

(See studies relating the emotion to cardiovascular events and higher incidences of cancer....to name just a couple.)

But with Trump, it's anybody's guess as to what's going on.

Personally, I believe dementia or some type of mental impairment seem to be revealing itself at the moment. His speech patterns and body language could be early FTD.

He's always talked like that. It's because he doesn't read books (never has) so can only think in little chunks of thought.

Anger impacts mostly your blood pressure, which I'm sure he manages with drugs.

What's striking is that her facial appearance seems fine. She's not flushed or pale, just looks worried. If it was blood sugars or thyroid you'd expect sweats, dizziness, something like that.

And if she can keep traveling then it's apparently not incredibly serious. Baffling.

isn't it some kind of seizure? I think brain tumors/ lesions.

Apparently, the very first shaking happened during military honours in humid conditions in Mexico City on a visit in 2017. So heat and stuffy air might have something to do with it.

There have also been studies correlating ready expression of anger with a longer life-span, actually... note this is through expression of anger, bottling it up is what kills you, but the upshot is that chronically angry people may extend their life somewhat by freely showing it.

True R71

But compared to controls of non-angry or less angry individuals, the angry folks still demonstrate more pathology.

Flooding human cells continually with epinephrine eventually takes its toll.

(Includes Trump and the recipents of his wrath. Sure wouldn't want to ever be in HIS presence!)

🙉 Tardive Dyskinesia

She shouldn't have lied and said it was only dehydration.

If she has been combining alcohol with medication that may explain the shaking.

I had a close friend who died of Parkinson's Even near the end, there was little shaking. Is that because of medication? I think so, but do not remember.. I do know the disease got progressively worse - but slowly. To the degree, he ended up in nursing home, because his family could no longer care for him.

If Merkel does have Parkinson's, it should not effect her remaining time as Chancellor.

Trump sends his compassion.

Snapped earlier today. No more standing during national anthems for her.

Wow, that's pretty serious. I wonder what's wrong with her? Well, she is elderly. It's not like all elderly people have 100% good health or anything. Still, she seems so statesmanlike compared to some of the buffoons the stupidest people in our country have lately foisted upon us.
