Japan is experimenting with the all-female teams to combat various security challenges ahead of the 2020 Summer Olympics, which will be hosted in Tokyo, reported Newsweek. The move is also in response to the country's sexual assault problems.

The Secret Service will still be accompanying and guarding Trump, so even if the Japanese have a battalion of trans gender midgets for security, it doesn’t matter.

This was never about the FLOTUS.
And after the gentle and astute bit, I’m not convinced it’s a big step forward for Japanese womanhood.
