The fact this man is our ambassador to Japan is embarrassing. You should see him try and speak the language. It's cringeworthy even if you don't know Japanese. Unfortunately, I can't find a video of it. To put it this way, he spoke while giving an award at the May 2024 Sumo Tournament. He was summarily ridiculed.

My point being is that he doesn't know the language at all and someone with familiarity with the local language should be ambassador.

Which is why we need to hire a weeb

Weebs don't know the language either, they just repeat memes from anime.

I mean, he was a on the Board of Directors for Freddie Mac when they had a bunch of 'accounting irregularities' in the early 2000's (Clinton appointed him there after he was an advisor to Billy boy)

He's been sleazing around for a loooong time
