During last week’s G7 summit, President Trump reportedly made a bizarre remark to underscore what he believes is a Mexican immigration problem for the United States. Per a senior EU official, who spoke to the Wall Street Journal, the president said to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzō Abe: “Shinzo, you don’t have this problem, but I can send you 25 million Mexicans and you’ll be out of office very soon.” According to the Journal, “A sense of irritation with Mr. Trump could be felt, ‘but everyone tried to be rational and calm,’ the person said.”

UPDATE:

Trump Reportedly Jabbed at World Leaders During G-7 Meetings: ‘Emmanuel… All the Terrorists Are in Paris’

by Josh Feldman | 3:53 pm, June 15th, 2018

A new report on the behind-the-scenes talks at the G-7 summit reveals some of the more off-the-cuff comments made by President Trump to other world leaders. Trump came out of the G-7 fuming at Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, but according to The Wall Street Journal, the President got in a few jabs at other nations that took people aback.

For example, Trump called European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker a “brutal killer.” (Not literally, in an apparent trade reference, and Juncker himself said, “I think he meant it as a compliment, but I am not sure.”

There was some sparring over trade, as Trump privately talked about the unfair treatment of the U.S., which he’s also done publicly. The Journal, however, reveals some rather, well, striking moments:

The U.S. president jarred some with blunt observations. At one point, Mr. Trump brought up migration as a big problem for Europe and then told Mr. Abe, “Shinzo, you don’t have this problem, but I can send you 25 million Mexicans and you’ll be out of office very soon,” according to the senior EU official who was in the room. A sense of irritation with Mr. Trump could be felt, “but everyone tried to be rational and calm,” the person said.

The EU official said at another point, in a discussion over Iran and terrorism, Mr. Trump verbally jabbed at Mr. Macron, “You must know about this, Emmanuel, because all the terrorists are in Paris,’” the senior official said.

1. What the actual fuck?

[msongs]

2. "reportedly" is not fact, therefore not news. nt

[DonViejo]

10. Go over to the WSJ and read it, they are reporting the quote (and others from Trump)...

as fact.

[procon]

3. Can't we send 25 Million Republicans to Japan instead? nt

[lagomorph777]

4. Send them to Russia

They'd love it there.

[erronis]

9. And the gulags and forest burial grounds will give them a fitting end.

Since they love something else far more than they love the country that gave them the right to represent us.

I hope each one of them shows up at the Soviet admittance station to get their "Medals of Honor for Service to Russia". They won't be able to cash in on those medals.

There may be many more "disappeared" during these times. Despots like dump would be happy to take that action if you don't stand in perfect attention/heil.

[olddad56]

25. Fuck that, send Trump to Russia. My guess that he willl someday live there in exile anyway

eventually he will be brought up on charges of treason and flee the country to avoid the death penalty. Of course this will be after the damage to the US is completed.

[turbinetree]

5. I like our neighbor's south of the border..............its the ones in this country I worry about

this sinister asshole is dangerous................

[Solly Mack]

6. I can see him saying that.

It's right up his stupid alley.

[sandensea]

7. Christ, how do you say Archie Bunker in Japanese!

The worst part is, Abe knows that the Orange Oaf talks to him like that because 40% of our fellow Americans love hearing about it later.

[DemoTex]

8. Trump needs to gargle with Imodium

He has uncontrolled, projectile diarrhea of the mouth.

[barbtries]

14. then he should take it as an enema

talks straight from his ass.

[braddy]

11. That would be a huge boost for Japan and make them a better stronger nation.

[lunasun]

13. They are very much about ethnic purity or used to be. Wasn't surprised he was the 1st to cuddle up

to Trump . They do not accept other Asian workers well and would not likely treat latinos better
UN report
In 2005, a United Nations special rapporteur on racism and xenophobia expressed concerns about deep and profound racism in Japan and insufficient government recognition of the problem.[79][80]

Doudou Diène (Special Rapporteur of the UN Commission on Human Rights) concluded after an investigation and nine-day tour of Japan that racial discrimination and xenophobia in Japan primarily affects three groups: national minorities, descendants of former Japanese colonies, and foreigners from other Asian countries.[81]
Professor John Lie, from the University of California, Berkeley, in spite of the widespread belief that Japan is ethnically homogeneous, believe it is more accurate to describe Japan as a multiethnic society.[82] Such claims have long been rejected by other sectors of Japanese society such as former Japanese Prime Minister Tarō Asō, who has once described Japan as being a nation of "one race, one civilization, one language and one culture".[83]

In 2010, according to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, Japan's record on racism has improved, but there is still room for progress.[85] The committee was critical of the lack of anti-hate speech legislation in the country and the treatment of Japanese minorities and its large Korean and Chinese communities.[85] The Japan Times quoted committee member Regis de Gouttes as saying that there had been little progress since 2001 (when the last review was held) "There is no new legislation, even though in 2001 the committee said prohibiting hate speech is compatible with freedom of expression."[85] Many members of the committee, however, praised the Japanese government's recent recognition of the Ainu as an indigenous people.[85]

In February 2015, Ayako Sono, a former member of an education reform panel, wrote a controversial column in Sankei Shimbun suggesting that more foreign workers be imported to meet labor shortages, but that they be separated from native Japanese in a system of apartheid.[86][87][88][89] She later explained "I have never commended apartheid, but I do think that the existence of a ‘Chinatown’ or ‘Little Tokyo’ is a good thing."[90]

15. 25 million Mexicans would be enough political power to change Japan into what they wanted it to be.

[christx30]

18. And that is why Japan would never allow them

to step foot in the country.

[braddy]

22. Then Japan will never amount to anything, and will slip into being a less succesful and affluent

country.

[Croney]

12. He speaks of human beings like they are thumb tacks

scattered on the ground, needing to be swept up and gotten out of his way. I hope karma gets him soon and hard.

[populistdriven]

16. +1 for the trump racism to japan pm in front of G7

the us emperor is naked

[dameatball]

17. No problem. Abe knows that they will all be too young to vote.

[progree]

19. Also, "all the terrorists are in Paris" - Trump told Emmanuel Macron

https://www.aol.com/article/news/2018/06/15/trump-reportedly-told-japans-prime-minister-hed-send-him-25-million-mexicans/23460248/

He also took a dig at French President Emmanuel Macron, while the leaders were discussing Iran and terrorism, according to the EU official.

"You must know about this, Emmanuel, because all the terrorists are in Paris," Trump said.

The article also has several past Trump comments on immigrants, e.g. "shithole countries", that 40,000 Nigerians would never "go back to their huts" in Africa, that the 15,000 Haitians who had entered the US in the preceding months "all have AIDS" ...

[SammyWinstonJack]

23. Asshole has absolutely no filter. He thinks it, says it and loves the fallout.

[Blue_Tires]

20. Be proud America... This is YOUR goddamned president...

How many folks out there would sell their own grandmother just to return to the pre-Trump "status quo"? You know, that status quo everyone used to claim they hated...

[Vinca]

21. Let's send 25 million Republicans to North Korea instead.

[SammyWinstonJack]

24. That's a DAMN good start.

[videohead5]

26. 25 million?

We don't have 25 million undocumented Mexicans here.what is he even talking about?..illegally taking people from another country and sending them to Japan?...Trump has shit for brains.

[JHB]

29. He pulls numbers from the same place he wants people to kiss...

...and having shit for brains is entirely consistent with that set-up.

[Stuart G]

27. Trump is clearly too stupid to understand he needs to "just shut up"

Saying stuff like stated above, shows he is more stupid than we thought before. Clearly, he has been told not to make jokes about other groups of people.....and he continues anyway......Therefore, all he has to do is be careful about saying things that hurt or are inappropriate is to ..."listen to others.." that's it.

But...he is too stupid and arrogant to listen..he thinks his comments are "funny"....

It is easy to know that if you have said some disgraceful things in the past, that in a very important situation, to ..............just shut up......

Making a joke about.."sending Mexicans to Japan".....or "all terrorist are in Paris" is stupid, self centered and arrogant beyond belief

.....Every single thoughtful intelligent person in this country needs to read this... It places Trump in a place that is far lower than before. (and I did not think that was possible)

[bucolic_frolic]

28. SMH

was it a 'slow boat to China' thought in his demented head? Each day I'm losing any ability to understand his distorted mind.

[Kali]

30. sounds just like the drunken senile bigoted uncle in law at the famil reunion picni

only difference is the world actually has to pay attention to this asshole.
