The Trump brand: Big in Japan
On Friday, President Trump welcomed Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the White House. Sources close to the president revealed that in preparation for the meeting Trump was briefed by the State Department on key issues of US-Japanese relations, the differences between Chinese and Japanese cuisine and Japan's location. When prompted to shake hands at the oval office, Trump held Abe's hands for an awkward 19 seconds presumably gloating in the superiority of his size.
