Social media users mercilessly mocked President Donald Trump over the weekend after a Fox News interview in which he referred to Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba as “Mr. Japan.”

Tbf, there's a lot of world leaders. I couldn't remember all of their names. Just say the fucking title. "Mr. Prime Minister". That's it. Not the country. Frankly, he should know the prime minister of Japan well enough to remember his name.

That would require knowing/remembering that Japan has a prime minister

I mean, most countries have a prime minister and/or a president in power. Even that's a bit to remember. Just for the love of god, fucking google it before you might have to talk about it.

Disagreed. If you're the President of the United States, knowing the basic structure and principal players of the world's 4th largest economy is the least. Kids memorize more Pokémon beasts than this idiot can handle world leaders.

Of course. This is the bare minimum with several crucial parts missing. Still can't meet it.

I wouldn't bet money on Trump being capable of googling things, and he's definitely incapable of admitting he doesn't know something by asking about it.

Of course not. This is just the bare minimum that most anyone can meet.
