President Donald Trump stunned his fellow world leaders at the G7 meeting when he said he would ship 25 million Mexicans to Japan, which would result in Prime Minister Shinzo Abe losing his next election.
During the gathering in Quebec which ended with Trump leaving early and refusing to sign the traditional joint communique the president was talking about what he called Europes immigration problem when he turned his attention to the Japanese leader.
Shinzo, you dont have this problem, but I can send you 25 million Mexicans and youll be out of office very soon, Trump said, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing a senior EU official who was in the room.

You probably mean a total of three which were granted. I really wonder how the Turk Muslims slipped in. Most asylum applicatons are rejected for the reason that the applicant is "unlikely to adapt well or be happy in the unique culture of Japan."
Successful asylum applicants are going to need at least two of three of the following:
- Fluency in the Japanese language.
- Marriage to a Japanese national.
- A professional skillset which is rare or in high demand in Japan. (Professonal athletes being the best example here).
An extreme strength in #3 might overcome weakness in #1 or #2.

If joking about it is what upsets them so much why the hell aren’t they furious that Mexico and Central American are doing exactly that to us.
The only difference between the Hispanic hoards invading the U.S. and the Muslim hoards invading Europe is that our border is not separated from theirs by a large body of water.
Build the wall, deport them all including their spawn, and deport the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and a few billionaires along with them.

Japan may soon find itself inundated with North Korean boat people.
Nobody in NK would have been allowed to own boats. At best, rowboats, but then, none of them would have enough strength to row a boat a mile, not after being so weak from starvation of the population. Hmmm... could turn out that, starvation is being used as a weapon to keep the N. Koreans from any uprising. Same is happening in Venezuela; nobody can fight anymore.

Trump 2020, 2024, 2028!!!
Trump FOREVER!!! But, not via elections every 4 years.
Since the country is doing so well with Trump's policies and initiatives and rules and tax cuts and cuts in regulations... perhaps Trump could be "president for life" by having all of policies and initiatives and tax cuts written into the U.S. Constitution. Even democrats would be stuck with doing things the Trump way, unless we got another law-breaking president like Obama and Hillary.

“Japanese Gardens And Mexican Lawn Crews. Imagine the possibilities.”
Hmmmm. A new koan. What’s the sound of a one-hand Mexican lawn crew clapping in a Japanese Zen garden?

Provided there is high turnover.
That actually looks really good.

yep an unnamed source again, and even if true so what? It was clearly not serious about getting 25 millions of them and sending them over there since we cannot afford to do so

I’ll bet even Merkel kept mum at the prospect of taking in 25 million more refugees.

Actually, the famous “Baja fish taco” was created by Japanese fishermen working out of Ensenada. It’s really a tempura taco.

maybe trump understands how xenophobic the japanese people are
Years ago (70s 80s) when Japanese companies sent people to oversee Japanese businesses in the US with their families, when they came back to japan they and their family members were ostracized as ‘outsiders’.
25 million foreign welfare cases and cultural aliens being let into Japan WOULD cause the politicians who allowed it to be VERY quickly voted out of office.
Leftists in Europe don’t care what damage their policies do as long as it weakens things enough to make it easier fro them to seize total power for their ideology.
