Japan strengthening its defense is about deterrence and sovereignty. importing U.S. populist branding,
it just turns seriousness into spectacle.

I asked a Republican witness if she was concerned about the safety of people in Taiwan. She said that Trump can be a "madman”.

If weapon sales to Taiwan are openly on the table for US-China talks, then we are truly entering a new era of uncertainty.

Even just Trump saying this out loud is trouble for the Lai administration and cannon fodder for American skepticism here in Taiwan.

while the Six Assurances may not be codified federal law like the Taiwan Relations Act, they have functioned as the "rails" for U.S. foreign policy for over 40 years.

Trump took credit for the LDP's landslide?

Well now I've seen everything.
Trump

By claiming credit for a foreign election outcome, the rhetoric shifts from "supporting an ally" to "validating a client."

Is Trump testing the Japanese people's intelligence?

By claiming credit, Trump effectively frames Prime Minister Takaichi not as a leader chosen by the Japanese people, but as a political subordinate who owes her position to a foreign endorsement.

Japan gets nothing from this claim—not prestige, not leverage, not benefit. Trump gets a trophy he didn’t earn.

Trump’s remarks are deeply humiliating to Japan, offer no benefits whatsoever, and are nothing short of a disaster
February 17, 2026 at 3:37 AM
When a U.S. President frames a foreign leader's victory as a result of their own endorsement, it subtly undermines that leader’s domestic mandate. It suggests the mandate wasn't earned solely from the Japanese electorate, but was "granted" or "assisted" by a foreign power.

Trump—Claiming causal credit changes the victory into a "shared win" for an ideological movement rather than a national win for Japan. It reframes a sovereign democratic exercise as a data point in a global partisan trend.
If a U.S. president thinks he “got Japan’s PM elected,” the problem isn’t foreign interference—it’s main-character syndrome.

Claiming causal credit for a foreign election without evidence is not analysis; it’s narcissism

If appeasement is always preferable,then the list of countries we 'let them have' never actually ends.

You haven’t invented a new path to peace—you’ve just reinvented appeasement and given it gentler language.
and wrapped it in 'therapy-speak' about being tired of war.
or the whole thing goes... KABOOM! IMO, we shouldn't even flirt with such temptations. I say we let them have taiwan. what the hell do i give a fucking shit? appeasement is always preferable to a hot war with a nuclear power.
