After surviving Donald Trump's dreaded handshake on Monday, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, continued to birth an onslaught of amazing memes. Along with asserting his hand dominance, JT gifted us with another example of the persistent hashtag, #PMStealYourGirl, and inspired an uncomfortable gaffe courtesy of White House Press Secretary, Sean Spicer. With so much material in one short visit, you'd think the internet would ease up on Trudeau memes. Twitter had other ideas and kept the gold coming when the Canadian leader continued his global travels in Germany this week. It only took a few moments with German Chancellor Angela Merkel before the viral pictures were already make their rounds.

We've seen a variation of the above meme before, so it may seem a little lackluster. Please raise your expectations now, because we're about to enter a new era of #PMStealYourGirl. You see, after this initial interaction, both heads of state sat down for a candlelit dinner to discuss foreign policy. At least, we assume it was about foreign policy...it could've have just been a very nice date. Check out the reactions on Twitter below and see for yourself.

No word yet on whether the two have arranged a second date. Maybe they can discuss trade relations at one of those glow-in-the-dark mini putt courses.
