If there’s anything we should take from Japan, it’s treating cars like second class citizens behind transit instead of the other way around. The cute tiny cars are more a side effect of that.

    The Japanese charmed the fuck out of him.

    Imagine a Democrat bringing Kei trucks to America. Fox News would’ve been holding rolling coal rallies with F-450 Super Doody.

    Also imagine a Democrat rescheduling marijuana.

      Only Nixon could go to China, as they say.

      Because if a Democrat had tried to normalize relations between the US and Maoist China the Republicans would have crucified him. But when their own leader tells them to do it, it suddenly becomes a great idea.

      If Republicans didn’t have the principle of groveling to whoever’s in charge of their party, they’d have no principles at all.
