Japan Elects a "Female Trump" as Prime Minister

Many are calling her "Japan's Trump."

The leftwing propaganda media calls her "Japan's first female PM," and sometimes "hard right."

But they don't want to admit another Trumpian official has been elected and that the progressive globalist/transgender/Islamic conquest movement collapsing.

And on that: She's not PM yet. She has been elected leader of the ruling conservative power. Ergo, she should quickly be confirmed as PM, but she hasn't been confirmed yet.

President Trump welcomed the news Monday that Japan is poised to have its first female prime minister, calling it "incredible for the people of Japan."

"Japan has just elected its first female Prime Minister, a highly respected person of great wisdom and strength. This is tremendous news for the incredible people of Japan. Congratulations to all!" Trump posted on Truth Social.

Sanae Takaichi, a conservative lawmaker, won a key leadership vote Saturday, which put her on track to become Japan's prime minister. She will be the first woman to hold the role in the country's history.

The Japanese stock market gained more than forty f***ing million Deutschmarks.

Japan stocks hit record after ruling party names pro-business leader

Japanese stocks have hit a record high after the country's ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) named Sanae Takaichi as its new leader, positioning the pro-business politician to be Japan's next prime minister.

The benchmark Nikkei 225 index closed 4.75% higher on Monday, ending the day above 47,000 for the first time.

Takaichi, who has held senior government roles including minister for economic security and internal affairs, is known for her support of higher government spending and lower borrowing costs.

The Japanese economy continues its long period of weakness. She's hoping to stimulate it back to life.

She is also a long-time admirer of former UK prime minister Margaret Thatcher and her free market approach to economics.

Investors welcomed the announcement of her victory in the LDP leadership race, with shares rising in real estate, technology and heavy industry companies.

While the Japanese stocks rose, the yen hit a record low against the euro and dropped by 1.7% against the US dollar.

Monday's market response was largely a "knee-jerk reaction" to the potential appointment of Takaichi as prime minister, Japan economist Jesper Koll told the BBC.

I like this: Apparently she's Japan's "Iron Lady" and a "hardline right-winger."

A few things about Sanae Takaichi, the first female PM in Japan based on information I gathered.
1) She is more "Japan First" than Shinzo Abe.
2) She is against illegal immigration and wants to significantly limit legal immigration to maintain "Japanese core culture".
3) She is anti-feminist, advocating for banning married women from keeping their maiden names.
4) She is a supporter of traditional family structure.
5) She supports tax incentives for having children, as well as tax deductions for day care and other child services.
6) She opposes same-sex marriage.
7) She wants to ratify the constitution so that Japan can have a formal military again.
8) Prompt economic, food, and energy security government spending through a "crisis management investment".
9) Proinflationary policy to 2% with consistent wage growth to promote spending.
Is this a win for Japan?
