Question from readers:
How many people support Ishiba Shigeru?
Considering the Popularity of Ishiba Shigeru
Recently, I often hear discussions about Ishiba Shigeru. It’s quite understandable that he has strong support, particularly from the elderly demographic. His manner of speaking, with a slow and deliberate pace, is certainly easy to follow and provides a sense of reassurance. I sometimes find myself
consciously slowing down when talking to my grandparents. It’s important to consider the other person’s ability to understand, after all.
The Appeal of Ishiba and Its Impact
When I watched Ishiba’s speeches, I was struck by how attentive the people around him were as he began to speak. Especially among the elderly, it was clear that they were seriously listening to his words. His kind demeanor likely fosters a sense of trust, making people feel that “he can’t be a bad person.” However, there seem to be many differing opinions regarding his behavior after becoming Prime Minister. I admit I had some expectations when he took office, so there were moments of disappointment for me. The political world is complex, but the charm of a person matters as well.
My Small Experience
Speaking of which, the other day, when I went to a comedy show with a friend, the comedian talked about politics and the audience erupted in laughter. I found it interesting how opinions about politics can gradually shift through humor. At one point, when Ishiba’s name came up, I couldn’t help but think, “I wonder how he’s doing lately?” What do you all think about Ishiba Shigeru? Please share your thoughts on his appeal or any concerns you might have in the comments! I’d love to engage in a fun conversation while sharing our opinions.
