We need to send this guy to protocol and etiquette training.
What gets me about this is he has access to the entire staff at the State Department, most of them liberal Democrat sycophants, whose job it is to know this s**t! Plus he and his staff could consult Japanese studies professors with virtually any university for advice on protocol, and yet with all that this idiotic fool of a President and his pathetic, undeserving, ignorant staff could not ask for the proper advice about how to greet a Japanese leader. TOTAL FAIL!!! This is way worse than Jimmy Carter's "I lust after your people" fail in Poland.
