Tokyo crowd chants ‘We love Trump’ as motorcade passes
American Thinker ^ | 05/28//2019 | Thomas Lifson

You won’t be seeing this on the mainstream media TV channels. As President Trump’s motorcade traveled through central Tokyo – it looks to me as though he was on his way to the Imperial Palace for the state dinner with the Emperor and Empress, chants of “We love Trump! We love Trump!” can be heard from bystanders.

Twitter video screen grab

This does not appear to be a parade-style motorcade, for the sidewalks are not jammed with people, but rather people who, perhaps aware of the likely motorcade route – or perhaps noting the extensive police presence – paused to express their feelings toward the American leaders who had earlier delighted then nation with his attendance at the grand sumo tournament and presentation of the “President’s cup” to winner Asanoyama.

Things you won't see on MSM:

Japanese public repeatedly shout " We LOVE Trump" as Presidential motorcade drives past.#JapanLovesTrump pic.twitter.com/GMX31LbDNg — Suzy is NOT Russian (@suzydymna) May 26, 2019

 

Prime Minister Abe and a sizable segment of the public understand how much Japan needs American support and protection in the face of North Korean nukes and China’s military and economic expansion, and its desire to dominate a Chinese version of a twentieth century version of the Greater East Asian Co-prosperity Sphere. President Trump is very public with his expectation that Japan will offer in return trade, investment, regional security, and military support. He is doing this with a smile, mostly, and managed a visit that improved America’s standing with the Japanese public.

Trump also delighted then nation with his attendance at the grand sumo tournament and presentation of the “President’s cup” to winner Asanoyama.


I think the grand trophy was a little to heavy for him. He obviously needed help lifting it.

ANYTHING that shows President Trump in a positive light the commie media will NEVER report..they’d rather slit their own wrists than say something positive about this good human being

The Japanese were incredulous when Obama was elected. They knew an incompetent when they saw it.

I’m sure these chanting crowds will be the lead story on the CBS Evening News tonight.

Right after I have dinner with Santa Claus and the Easter bunny, and a leprechaun gives me a pot of gold.

Carter was incompetent.

Barry was and is malignant.

So it’s now an established fact that Donald Trump can get a much larger, more enthusiastic reception in Japan than Joe Biden can get in Philadelphia.

Had there been better planning they could have taken advantage of Trump's skill in the ring.

Lots of Japanese speak perfect English, although some speak Janglish.
