Life is full of lessons, and there are 📌📌two specifically to be learned here: 🇺🇸Trump is an unbalanced, unpredictable malignant narcissist with psychopathic tendencies who ritualistically humiliates both friend and foe. Sadly, 🇯🇵Prime Minister Takaichi appears to have allowed herself to briefly join in at the expense of a cancer-stricken Joe Biden, outside the West Wing yesterday. It isn't a wild prediction to say that despite her efforts to suck up and over-modulate her affinity for him, (the Shinzo Abe approach on steroids) indeed a day will come when she herself, or Japan as a whole, likely becomes the target of that same ritual humiliation. Note the date. Put it in your notebook.

The person the Japanese Prime Minister is hugging is a war criminal—a man who suddenly killed nearly 200 children—a pedophile, a bigot, and a money-grubbing, foolish scoundrel. As a Japanese person, I am ashamed.

🇯🇵 Takaichi flew 6,000 miles to be humiliated. Pearl Harbor brought up. Lunch canceled. No joint statement. She went to Washington to explain Japan's limits. Trump spent the meeting mocking them. 82% of Japanese oppose this war. She ignored them. 11,000 protested in Tokyo. She flew anyway. Now she's signing $40 billion nuclear deals. Tying Japan closer to an empire that just insulted its history. Takaichi bowed. Trump laughed. Japan paid. Call it diplomacy. The rest of us call it submission.

なぜアメリカを非難できないのかと聞かれて答えがトランプにはこれから会いますって日本語通じてないんだよね
