President Donald Trump announced that Toyota will invest billions to open auto plants across the country.
“I was just told by the [Japanese] prime minister that Toyota is going to be putting auto plants all over the United States to the tune of $10 billion,” Trump said. “Go out and buy a Toyota.”
Trump spoke to sailors aboard the USS George Washington Tuesday in Tokyo Bay after meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi.
Trump said he thinks Takaichi, Japan’s first female prime minister, will “go down as one of the great prime ministers.”
“I want to just let you know, anytime you have any question, any doubt, anything you want, any favors you need, anything I can do to help Japan, we will be there,” Trump told Takaichi.
Takaichi will nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters.
