Just what is it with these Japanese? Do they like to be a vassal state or something? It's a coalition of anti-China really. It went on to anti-China chant and religious sermon. Gee what a mixed bag!
Trump’s claim of ‘rigged’ election gains supporters even in Japan

Nearly one month after the U.S. presidential election, a group of demonstrators supporting U.S. President Donald Trump hit the streets, loudly proclaiming that the election was rigged.
However, this protest took place not in the United States, but started from Hibiya Park in central Tokyo. On the afternoon of Nov. 29, the demonstrators, holding placards in their hands stating the unfounded allegation that the election was rigged, loudly set out on their march.
“Let’s back President Trump’s re-election!” a lead protester chanted. “Aw!” a crowd shouted in endorsement.
“Trump is the winner of the U.S. presidential race!” another chant said as the group marched through the Ginza shopping district. “Biden is not!”
The demonstrators’ protests were not just about the U.S. presidential election.
Some of the marchers carried easily recognizable national flags--the Stars and Stripes of the United States and the Hinomaru of Japan, but many others were seen holding much-less familiar flags, which featured yellow stars on a blue background.
They were the symbol of a group called the “New Federal State of China,” whose establishment was announced in June by Guo Wengui, an anti-Beijing businessman with political connections, and Steve Bannon, a former top Trump aide.
A chant at one point said, “Take down the CCP (Chinese Communist Party).”
Some participants carried a banner showing a passage from the Bible and a sheet of paper declaring the U.S. presidential election was a “fight between good and evil.”
