Tokyo, Japan
POTUS arrived at the stadium at 4:49 pm after a 15 minute drive. People lined the streets or peered at the motorcade from their balconies. Many were filming, some were waving. Your pooler spotted several clusters of people wearing MAGA gear, waving American flags, or brandishing Trump 2020 signs.
The tournament is expected to start soon. Your pooler has requested additional background information on attendees from the White House.
