WASHINGTON — Under the threat of potentially devastating U.S. tariffs on autos, Japan is ready to roll out the newest phase of its charm offensive targeting President Donald Trump as it welcomes him on a state visit tailor-made to his whims and ego.
"In the world of Donald Trump, terrible things can happen if you're an ally, but no major blows have landed on Japan," said Michael Green, senior vice president for Asia and Japan chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. Abe will host Trump on Sunday for a round of golf and take the president to a sumo wrestling match, a sport Trump said he finds"fascinating." Trump is eager to present the winner with a U.S.-made trophy.
Trump plans to return to Japan for a summit of leading rich and developing nations in Osaka in late June. "On the surface, it's all going to be a display of warmth, friendship, hospitality," said Mireya Solis, a senior fellow at the Brookings Center for East Asia Policy Studies. But, she said,"there's an undercurrent of awkwardness and concern about what the future might hold. ... We're coming to a decisive moment. This is, I think, the moment of truth."
"Abe has to rely on Trump to advocate," she said. Abe recently offered to meet Kim without preconditions in an effort to restore diplomatic ties.
I'm anxiously awaiting the photoshops of trump sumo!
The US. has great pride and love for the Empire that JAPAN is!
You know Trump will offend or embarrass himself. You know how he is too lazy to learn custom protocols.
Hopefully the Emperor will know what a POS Trump is.
Trump will be the clown dressed as a Sumo wrestler to entertain the new emperor
More golf? The man who had no time for golf? He might make those wrestlers look petite!
Can’t wait to see Trump in a mawashi as he enters the Sumo competition.
The Japanese people must know that Donald Trump does NOT represent the American people. He's a puppet installed by VladimirPutin. Trump is a FRAUD and a scumbag. Kick him out of Japan as if he's a plague.
Now, just for meeting with realDonaldTrump, the new Emperor is going to be cursed by the dark, evil spirit that has been controlling Trump all his life. No one in the right mind would want to shake hand with that piece of sh!t known as Donald J. Trump, a FRAUD and a criminal!
Fat orange man takes on sumo wrastling!! 😂😂😂😂😂👍👍
. Check his luggage when he leaves. ConDon is a thief, and his crime family. I wouldn't let him off AF1 if you don't want things tainted and spoiled and stolen. ConDon .
Trump's going to Sumo wrestle?
We can always hope Godzilla shows up
Man is the Emperor going to be disappointed
Let's see how he will embarrass us now.
Please stay there!
How sad for Japan
Wait, is Trump going to be playing golf and Sumo wrestling?
Oh for god sakes no!!! realdonaldtrump: 'I am the best sumo wrestler the world has ever seen. Everyone says no one sumos like me, nobody. I am the most transparent sumo wrestler ever.'
Preview of Trump meeting Japan’s new Emperor: DT: “Me, Me.....no collusion....Me, tremendous,........no obstruction.....Me, Me........Crazy Nancy.......Me, Me......”
One expensive social call. Has anyone enlightened the enlighten one?
Fucktrump
He’ll probably go and still won’t get a Nobel piece prize.. but Obama starts war with everyone and gets a Nobel piece prize!! The world knows and won’t forget
The world loves President Trump! ❤🇺🇸
He's fat enough to be a sumo wrestler.
So glad we elected President Trump!
He’s going to eff it up somehow.
Wow. What a great honor 🤣🤣🤣 DerangedDonald
Good Grief, it's so embarrassing when Trump gets out of the country. Wondering what he will do or say is just so stressful.
