In Japan, a new award for the grand sumo champion: The ‘Trump Cup’ ... I followed up on Asahi's report. A sumo expert said it's not unusual for a champion to receive trophies from diplomats/businesses, but awards are not usually named for an individual. https://t.co/q6oG299ZtI — PolitiTweet.org

Turns out there is precedent for this: Former French President Jacques Chirac in 2000 began giving the "Chirac Cup" for seven consecutive years. — PolitiTweet.org

Also, it turns out Chirac, who named his poodle "sumo," had French diplomats hand out his trophy in Japan. The award was discontinued by Sarkozy, who mocked sumo as "fat guys with slicked-down ponytails." — PolitiTweet.org
