By CCN: Donald Trump has again lived up to his maverick reputation. Despite worrying about hammering out a trade deal with Japan and staving off a recession that could imperil his 2020 election campaign, Trump found time to hit the golf course with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. This was part of a three-pronged effort by the Japanese to get on Trump’s good side by appealing to the three things he seemingly loves the most: golf, wrestling, and cheeseburgers.
After the golf game, Trump then attended a prestigious sumo wrestling tournament alongside more than 11,000 fans at Tokyo’s Ryogoku Kokugikan Stadium where he became the first-ever American president to hand over the championship trophy to eventual winner Asanoyama. According to reports, Trump described the evening as “incredible.”
Thank you @JPN_PMO @AbeShinzo! #POTUSinJapan
