In reply to the discussion: Trump says he'll be guest of honor at Japan's 'biggest event' in 'over 200 years' [View all]pangaia
(24,324 posts)15. What 'event' is he talking about?
The new emperor and the new Reiwa Era? He thinks THAT'S the biggest even in Japan in 200 years?? He's fucking nuts..
I wonder how much consideration to-
- Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
- the beginning of the Showa Era when Hirohito was Emperor- 1926-1989.
- the Heisei Era when Akihito was Emperor
- the Meiji Restoration the end of the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1868
- the arrival of Admiral Perry in 1853
Just for starters...
Of course he has never even heard of any of these events..
