Trump fumes at Japanese refusal to send Godzilla to Strait of Hormuz

Donald Trump has hit out at Japan after it refused his demands to send the fictitious monster Godzilla to the Strait of Hormuz.

President Trump hosted Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi at the White House where he criticised the US ally for their refusal to send the giant monster to help secure the Strait of Hormuz.

“We didn’t refuse anything, Gojira is a fictional character,” said Prime Minister Takaichi, not quite believing she actually had to say those words out loud.

Sorry but it is Friday! ;-)

irony upon irony, Godzilla IS the USA!

That was the point.

@Thebratdragon

Shushhhhhh ownership of Godzilla is the one that did the last film!

@PabloMartini "Last time we leant Gojira to the US, they gave him to Matthew Broderick, and we all saw how that turned out."
@PabloMartini fact: Godzilla isn't Japanese. He's from the Marshall Islands.

@PabloMartini ok, but Iran's Foreign Minister might say:

Release the Kraken.

@PabloMartini

This is actually satire? I'm just checking.

I mean, I can't tell anymore with that batshit insane dementia ward escapee.

I really could envision him uttering those words.

Poe's Law is dead. Trump shot it in the face on Fifth Ave in broad daylight in front of a cheering crowd.
