Shinzo Abe is a historic figure.
Solid control over his party and thus the Japanese government.
Put his own person as head of the Cabinet Legislation Bureau
thus making whatever he wants constitutional.
Abe excellent at abrogating himself to wealthy rightwing men like Trump.
Beloved by Japanese rightwing.
Presents himself as head, however, of the liberal international order.
Eliminate bad news by eliminating Lower House Budget Sessions and
stop Cabinet Members from speaking to the FCCJ.
Imposing Consumption Tax in fall will seriously hurt the economy.
Abe will get his constitutional revision by the end of the year to change Article 9.
