🇺🇸 Trump claimed in April he was "very close to a deal" with Japan. Today, their PM faces collapse for failing to appease an admin that treats trade like a casino - all bluster, no strategy. The house always wins... except when America's reputation is the chips.
The admin's tariff tantrums created diplomatic whiplash: delayed "Liberation Day" duties 3x, rescinded hikes days after announcing. Allies now gamble domestic stability on White House whims. Japan's ruling coalition bled seats trying to navigate demands that shift faster than Trump's red lines - sacrificing political capital for a "deal" that never materializes.
We teach kids to stand up to bullies, then cheer when our admin becomes one.
