President Trump Attends the Sumo Wrestling Cultural Program
President Trump attended a sumo tournament in Tokyo on Sunday, watching the action from a specially prepared seat near the ring, and presented an American-made trophy to the victor.
He climbed into the raised ring to present the newly made trophy, informally dubbed the “Trump Cup,” to the winne .
“In honor of your outstanding achievement as sumo grand champion, I hereby award you the United States President’s Cup,” Trump said before handing a certificate to Asanoyama .
The president, wearing black slippers instead of leather shoes, took the ring via a staircase instead of using the steps cut into the ring’s clay, bowed slightly and smiled to the crowd. He lifted the 60 pound trophy with some help, and handed it to the newly-crowned champion.
