They support Trump because they think he'll be tougher on China than Biden. That's pretty much it as far as I'm aware.

Yeah I forgot about that. This is true.

Which makes them horribly misinformed.

They don't have to face the immediate domestic issues Trump causes to Americans so its easy for them to support him

I've been to Japan, and the whole Trump thing is... weird. They seem to like Trump just because he's the President - it was the same with Obama - but are virtually clueless to anything he's done.

It's a combination of their cultural blind respect for elders and bureaucracy, and their fascination/idolization with modern American culture. It's usually just them copying what they think all Americans like or believe without any of the awareness of it (see also how recently commonplace blackface was in anime, manga, and games).

A few things I noticed.

  1. Why the FUCK is someone marching with a Korean flag? Especially because....
  2. Why the FUCK is someone marching with a Rising Sun battle flag? Those two run counterpoint. But I guess people do march with Confederate/USA flags...
  3. Love that one of the flags is upside down.

Japan is not a monolith. 89% think Trump has had a bad influence on Japan.

There are people in every country with different beliefs. Having a rally does not mean that country as a whole or even a significant chunk supports that cause.

You people don't know the world, do you? There are countries like Taiwan, SK and Japan that actually support Trump.

They support Trump purely because Trump is against China and these countries have generally huge animosities against China and the communist party too. Of course, this is a minority but it does align with the overall anti-China sentiment found prevalent in TW, JP and SK.

Taiwan is particularly fond of Trump from a survey I read before. In fact more over Biden.

Yeah, Abe was connected to a nationalist group that wanted the Emperor to regain power among other far right goals.

Yes, I posted an official poll from NHK showing that the vast majority do not hold positive opinions of Trump, but people like to just make up stuff based on how they feel or what some people write online rather than factual information.

Shit like this has a high rate of signal boosting by people with a vested interest in making it appear more common than it actually is.

Yes, because a group of people represents the entire Country. It's so pathetic that so many of you think this way. The Left, The Right, Atheist, Christians, Men, Women, White people, Black people, ect, ect.
