I'm waiting for him to pull a Gurriel while he's there.
I'm waiting for him to pull a Gurriel while he's there.
My money is on him getting them mixed up. You know, Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese... they all look alike.My money is on a joint presser in which he goes off script: "I just want to say how great it is to visit the Orientals. Orientals are fine people. Just the best. And really smart. You have to be smart to figure out how to use chopsticks. I mean, I can do it, I use them better than anyone. Except Orientals, of course. They're the experts."
Maybe he'll say, "I can't eat with sticks and twigs."My money is on him getting them mixed up. You know, Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese... they all look alike.
And then he'll start talking about the beautiful Oriental rugs he has and how much they cost.My money is on a joint presser in which he goes off script: "I just want to say how great it is to visit the Orientals.

They're the experts."
I read where they passed on his food preferences and said something like Trump likes simple foods, like steak, meat, potatos, etc. Honestly don't even know if it was satire or not. I'll bet he doesn't like much of the food from other countries.Maybe he'll say, "I can't eat with sticks and twigs."
Taco bowls. C'mon.I read where they passed on his food preferences and said something like Trump likes simple foods, like steak, meat, potatos, etc. Honestly don't even know if it was satire or not. I'll bet he doesn't like much of the food from other countries.
Like "It's the problem for the Chinks, Japs, and Gooks?"I'm afraid he will say something really offensive

Ha! I'm assuming that's a joke, but I hope it's real, because it's hilarious.

"Try building your cars in the United States instead of shipping them over,” Trump said at an event with Japanese business executives, according to a pool report.
“That's not rude?” he added.
Trump added that “Japan has been winning” when it comes to trade deals with the U.S.
“I have to say that for the last many decades, Japan has been winning. And you do know that,” Trump said.
Three out of every four Japanese cars and trucks sold in the U.S. are built in North America.
Maybe not...Ha! I'm assuming that's a joke, but I hope it's real, because it's hilarious.
Well, thankfully he asked the Japanese prime minister to start building cars in the USA....I am surprised no-one has ever thought of this before. Smartest Prez evaaaarrrr!

Fact:
Japan's big 3 automakers built more cars in U.S. than Detroit 3 last year

Moral of the story:
While it is impossible to pick a winner, that comment by Trump ranks in the top-10 of the dumbest things he has said...well, at least the top-10 for this month.
Let's hope Trump's advice is so good, the Japanese decide to keep him.While it is impossible to pick a winner, that comment by Trump ranks in the top-10 of the dumbest things he has said...well, at least the top-10 for this month.
That was last month. Old news.Dunno man.. This cars thing is harmless albeit a reflection of his ignorance. His lack of empathy is much scarier:

Most if not all Japanese nameplate factories are located in the heart of Trump country. (Three right here in Indiana.)

Maybe his followers think Toyota, Honda, Mazda, .. are American companies. After all, they are spelled in English, er, American.Most if not all Japanese nameplate factories are located in the heart of Trump country. (Three right here in Indiana.) That he doesn't realize that is flabbergasting.
Trump in a dog's ear...just because.
I honestly thought this was an ass.

That's the point. For the most part, they are. He's the one that doesn't seem to grasp that.Maybe his followers think Toyota, Honda, Mazda, .. are American manufacturers.

I doubt it. Besides, they're all driving Civics and Camrys now.Maybe this might be the statement of dumbness that eventually cracks that 'veneer of greatness' that they have of him. The Reagan democrats who voted for him.

We have many weapons systems deals with Japan where they build all or part of the systems in Japan. Japan has more restrictions on US imports than we do in Japanese imports. It’s not one way, and both countries are doing what they believe is in their national interests.Good ol' 2nd Generation American cars.
Btw in the article, his logic on trade made no sense as per normal. He wants the Japanese to build the cars where the customers are ie. in America. Yet, he wants the Japanese to buy more American products incl military equipment -- so by to his logic, shouldn't the American companies open up factories in Japan too for that?
Interestingly, the 'great negotiator' seems to only know those 'I win' type deals (rather than the normal 'win-win' ones) which anyone knows are either rare or scams.
