Trump Shakes Japanese Emperor's Hand But Doesn't Bow Like Obama by id911(m): 11:00am On Nov 06, 2017
President Donald Trump met with
Japanese Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko on Monday, sharing a brief handshake eight years after his predecessor became a global laughingstock by bowing deeply before the monarch.


Visiting with the emperor and empress is routine for heads of state visiting Tokyo, and Trump did his part a few hours before a joint press conference with Prime Minster Shinzo Abe, who wields more power than the aging figurehead.


Trump nodded his head slightly, but did not bend at the waist.


An administration official traveling with Trump on his Far East tour told DailyMail.com that bowing is 'not his style – never has been.'

President Donald Trump shook hands confidently with Japanese Emperor Akihito at the Imperial Palace in Tokyo


In 2009 his predecessor Barack Obama bowed deeply before the emperor in a sign of respect that was seen as a show of weak deference in the United States


Obama had already set the tone of American weakness by bowing to the Saudi king at a G20 summit in London


Trump offered just a nod of his head to the aging emperor on Monday

He is disrespectful because he didn't bow to another country's leader right? And are those other countries' leaders disrespectful for not bowing to Trump also? Or is trump not also the leader of his own country? Rubbish!! I don't know if you dems make use of your brains at all

Stop being foolish. That man is far older him. He should respect his elders
