    DJT45 is in Japan to meet Japans new emperor.

    He was the guest of honor at the Emperors Cup, which is like the Stanley Cup of Sumo.

    Sumo is one of the historic martial arts of Japan.

    The Champion is Asyano Hideki, who had never won a tournament before, and now he is being presented with the Emperors Cup, which weighs over 60 pounds.

    I was just reading the comments section from the white house video above.

    Japan really does love Trump.

    Trump should stay in Japan where he is loved. Over half of us here despise him.

    Six more years should be enough for you to learn to love Trump, too.

    I don't think I have ever seen an unhappier looking person in my life than Malaria Trump, as she sat next to Dirty Donald and Abe watching the sumo wrestling.Her life must be a living hell.

    Look, celebrate his diplomacy there, I hear he was well-received over all, but a small gathering holding up a few signs (one of whom at least is one of those Q Anon whack jobs), doesn't really say much. I've seen bigger crowds gather just to celebrate a Harry Potter themed filk band, and none of them were as unhinged as those Q Anon asylum escapees.

    If you think there are 'Q anon whack jobs' in Japan, then you have a clear disrespect for our Japanese allies, whom we've been allied virtually over a century with only the 6 years of WWII separating us. That is, ties that go beyond both parties and by several scores of administrations.

    There are. There was a photo. Remember? Did you miss the photo?

    In order to respect Japan . . . I have to assume there isn't a single whack job anywhere in Japan? Might want to mull that over a little bit before trying it again. I don't think you thought it through.

    Cool beans. Now find me anyone stupid enough to believe the argument above. Sorry, but you can respect a country overall and still acknowledge that there are idiots in it.

    ALL countries have idiots. ALL of them. This can't possibly be news to you. Please, please don't embarrass yourself by pretending you don't know this.

    We are long term allies, and our alliance is critical for maintaining peace and prosperity in the Pacific.

    They know it. We know it. Even lil Kim knows it.

    Despise? Wow... such butthurt. But, you are living in your own pained reality, because that is not the real world. The people that "despise" Trump really is just the hardcore partisan Left that is brainwashed by DailyKos, MediaMatters, and the Mainstream Media. It's people that actually believed the "Trump Russia Collusion" lie and are now upset when reality happened. You can get over it Walter. We are pulling for you.

    Japan is like America's little brother. Even more than the UK, it exemplifies our true values of peace, diplomacy and inner strength. Everyone around the world knows not to F with Japan. The world was put on notice when they beat the Russians in WW1. That's why we reforged ties after WWII, because we're smart enough to know that country is more then capable of rising up to the top, and we want to be chummy with them when they are.

    I'd probably say the UK due to its closer cultural bonds to the US, but they are a force to be reckoned with.

    One thing thats nice about Japan compared to much of the rest of Asia-it was never run by communists.

    After WW2 they squashed that pretty fast, in one case a Japanese communist was killed on stage with a samurai sword.

    Uh huh, keep telling yourself that as independents slip away. But I know, I know. It's always the media's fault with the Trump loving cons.

    You may have registered as an independent, but that was ages ago. You are a full blown Trump loving GOP supporter.

    3 whole hats?? Why have an election?! Trump for King!

    Trump might want to give Abe the number of his cosmetic dentist.

    Also, speaking of Sumo Wrestling:

    Trump must be overjoyed to meet someone with the same body type.

    Good thing Trump didn't compete. He was certainly qualified. But no one wants to see that many's hairy orange ass.

    I am also an Independent.

    Trump should try out for Sumo.

    Trump is a Hella Morbidly Obese POS.
