---President Donald Trump was reciting the sort of rote praise that leaders of allied nations heap on one another on Monday when he suddenly cut himself off during a joint news conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

“The Japanese people are thriving, your cities are vibrant, and you’ve built one of the world’s most powerful economies,” Trump said, before looking up from his prepared remarks. Turning his head to face Abe next to him, Trump ad-libbed: “I don’t know if it’s as good as ours. I think not, OK?” He emphasised the “OK” by drawing it out leadingly as a parent might with a child.

“And we’re going to try to keep it that way,” Trump added, for good measure. “But you’ll be second.”

Abe, listening to an interpreter through an earpiece, smiled and remained silent. But his face betrayed a touch of uncertainty as the US leader returned to his script. After the Japanese government had rolled out the red carpet for Trump and his family for two days, the patron was being patronised. It is becoming a familiar theme for Abe.---
