Say what you will about “the selfie seen around the world,” but the most juvenile things to emerge from Wednesdays memorial service for Nelson Mandela is the notion that Barack Obama was flirting with Thorning-Schmidt, and that Michelle Obama was mad about it. Andrea Peyser, at the New York Post, is a leading exponent of the theory that Obama “went into sugar shock over a Danish pastry.” Obama, she write, “lost his morality, his dignity and his mind, using the solemn occasion of Nelson Mandela’s memorial service Tuesday to act like a hormone-ravaged frat boy on a road trip to a strip bar.” The pastry is apparently also to blame, having “hiked up her skirt to expose long Scandinavian legs covered by nothing more substantial than sheer black stockings.” There’s more, but let’s debunk, at random, the next paragraph: “With Michelle glowering, the world judging and mental fidelity floating into the abyss, the president leaned into the air space of the cross-legged Danish cupcake, who is known in Copenhagen as a fan of America’s randy TV show ‘Sex and the City.’” She is, and so are Celine Dion, Harry Styles, Julian Fellowes, Marina Abramović, and Antonin Scalia. […] Why the presumption that Obama would be attracted to Thorning-Schmidt? Why the assertion that Michelle Obama would be jealous of her, even when photographs that everyone chose to ignore, and the photographer who took them, suggest otherwise? And what about David Cameron, the thirdly man in the frame? Amid the hubbub, have Thorning-Schmidt been making jokes about the impact of the negative benchmark rate on the Danish krone, or gossiping about Xi Jinping.
