Ok... without getting too much into politics here, this is just for fun. If every major world leader was a pipe smoker, what pipe would they smoke, and with what tobacco?
I'll start with this nutjob...
Kim Jong Un

I think he would smoke the following pipe, a XuHai, perhaps gifted to him by a Chinese diplotat because the pipe is Chinese and because it's a short and stubby round pipe much like Kim Jong himself :mrgreen:

I also think Kim Jong Un would smoke ONLY what he knew with his vast knowledge and wisdom to be the best blend of tobacco in the world....

and.... go! :mrgreen:

Well, when I saw the thread title I thought "Walnut for Kim Young'un, because he's nuts...", but you have him covered already LOL.

I don't know where this is going ... but sure, I like the idea.
How about this for Angela Merkel:

Pipe tobacco ... perhaps

Getting a Rainy Day blend by the beer mug, will need plenty of it in preparation for Brexit :lol:

Ohh oh I know ... my american republican friends please don't get upset at my sense of humor. I guess only Trump can make a corn cob pipe happen out of this one.

and as for pipe tobacco ... I think this is a given.

I would peg Merkel as more of a "Werner Mummert filled with Shortcut to Mushrooms" type.

I won't get offended. It's all about having some fun regardless of political leanings.

Donald Trump obviously would smoke a solid gold pipe and his preferred tobacco would be McClelland's 'Just Plain Nut' :mrgreen:

With Vladimir Putin being the outdoors dude:

I think he would smoke something like these:

And he would be packing them with this, being such a good buddy with some in the state here, and being natural and all:

Gonna gut me a carp, and eat'r raw...

Angela Merkel - any tobacco that's brown on the outside, red on the inside
Barack Obama - only the best: Captain Black Grape
Mike Pence - the nanner baccy
Vladimir Putin - Herzegovina Flor, crushed
Theresa May - 1Q mixed with pig entrails

Don't know what you did, but it's missing ".jpg" and something else, because even adding that suffix, it doesn't show.
Here's one example: http://pipesmagazine.com/members/wy2w/album/picture/23099

jpmcwjr - I had removed that older picture since it didn't load, and uploaded a resized version for a future attempt.
anthonyrosenthal - Did the IMG thing, but I found that Microsoft Edge has a mind of its own. Bill didn't think it was funny that I was poking fun at Vladimir 8O . Here's one more try...

Oh well, correct links were pasted, etc. I don't normally fool with pictures, because I have a crappy camera. All though I thought I'd give it a shot anyways. :D

wy2w, I edited your post. You copy pasted links instead of image addresses.

Thanks, jvnshr! This Microsoft Edge is limited as to its selections. I'm going back to Internet Explorer.

Ok, I think found that you have to select "Copy" in Microsoft Edge to get the correct link to the photo. There is no "copy image location" selection.
Here's trying our buddy again:

If it doesn't go through, then so much for Edge...

I think Putin and Trump take turns on this one, smoking Samovar of course.
