The creator of Takaichi’s defamatory online videos speaks to Bunshun: “I was always conservative, but I got a request saying, ‘The Takaichi camp is struggling in the election and want your help.’ I admire Stephen Bannon, who was an advisor to President Trump, and I had been studying his methods.”

      Jesus Christ Japan! You do NOT want to be electing people like this. The US is a shit show. Do not follow our example.

      They admire a convicted criminal and alleged wife beater who apparently hates his own children?

      Okey dokey.

      Bannon literally made a propaganda piece for epstein. Hey Japan get rid of these people.

      Unfortunately, the only journalism in Japan that’s actually doing its job properly is weekly magazines and tabloids. 😒 Newspapers and TV don’t even try to actively expose on issues like this.

      Great. It seems she follows the same ideas not only from Trump, but several of his associates, too. What can we expect from her from now on?

      I don’t care about that. Only Japan would make such a big issue out of something so trivial.

      They should be discussing economic problems in the Diet instead.

      Not a good look… but I’m often wondering if the right people will care.
