Trump again talks about Takahashi Sanae and Abe Shinzo. Trump said today (Beijing Time October 26): "The new Prime Minister of Japan is a close ally of Abe. You know, he is one of my favorite people - a great man."
[Clever] Comment: Trump's praise for Takahashi Sanae reveals the color of "loving the house and the person in it." He praised Abe Shinzo as a "great man," which actually stems from Abe's compliance with him during his term, even going so far as to use golf diplomacy and gifting custom baseball caps to maintain their relationship. And Takahashi Sanae, as a successor to Abe's policies, has radical military expansion and a tough stance towards China, which aligns with the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy. However, Trump's "enthusiasm" is more a continuation of Abe's legacy rather than a genuine recognition of Takahashi's political wisdom.
