First You Get the Sugar Then You Get the Power… Then You Get the Tariffs!

Alright listen up you punks! Ishiba the big shot from Japan is talkin' deals with the U.S. of A. Says he wants to hash things out at the G7 summit next month. These guys are movin' product see?

This Akazawa dude Japan's main man for the tariff hustle he's been back and forth to Washington more times than I been to Little Havana! He's talkin' 'bout progress but he ain't givin' nothin' away. Smart move. He says nothin's agreed 'til everything's agreed. This ain't no game this is business! Like I told Sosa: 'You wanna play rough? Okay. Say hello to my little friend!'

Trump Card: Ishiba's Got the President on Speed Dial

Forty five minutes on the phone with Trump? Ishiba's playing the game at the highest level. They're chitchattin' about security diplomacy and…you guessed it…tariffs! Sounds like they're hopin' to meet face to face at the G7 summit. These guys know where the real power is. Me? I prefer a good Cuban cigar and a stack of cash.

Shipbuilding Shenanigans: Japan's Offer the U.S. Can't Refuse?

You never know. This is business and in this business you gotta stay sharp! 'I'm bad guy but I'm not a bad guy.'

G7 or Bust: The Clock is Tickin' and the Stakes Are High!

The World Is Yours… but First You Gotta Pay the Tariff!

So what's the bottom line? Japan and the U.S. are playin' the tariff game and they're playin' it hard. They want to expand trade deal with security and make some serious cash. Will they succeed? Who knows? But one thing's for sure: in this world you gotta grab what you can get. And never trust anyone. 'You need people like me so you can point your fingers and say 'That's the bad guy.' So what that makes you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide or how to lie.'
