President Trump greeted by Emperor Naruhito in Japan before meeting with new prime minister
""She has good taste," Trump told reporters. "That's a hot truck.""
""A great man!""

President Donald Trump arrived in Japan, was welcomed by Emperor Naruhito, and held a roughly 30-minute conversation at the Imperial Palace. Trump praised the emperor and later praised a Japanese government idea to buy Ford F-150 trucks, calling the model "a hot truck." New Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who took office last week with a fragile coalition, seeks to build a personal relationship with Trump to ease trade tensions. Takaichi and Trump spoke by phone during his flight, with Takaichi emphasizing her ties to Shinzo Abe and referencing praise for a Gaza ceasefire that led to hostage returns. The truck purchase idea faces practicality concerns due to narrow Japanese streets.
