Who cares, the perpetually offended snowflakes around the world.

Maybe some of us are in no physical condition to do such things. I'm younger than the President, but no way can I sit cross legged due to knee and leg issues.

Sumo fans and traditionalists have reacted with disappointment to reports that Donald Trump will have a ringside seat at a sumo tournament in Japan - eschewing hundreds of years of tradition of sitting cross-legged on a cushion.

Mr Trump is set to step centre stage into Japan’s sumo world this weekend as he presents a trophy dubbed the “Trump Cup” to the winner of a major tournament during his visit to Japan.

The article also says that there's a frenzy as to whether or not Trump will wear slippers instead of shoes while presenting the trophy, that there are seats available for purchase, that ticket holders are pissed that so many spaces are being taken up by security folks, and that the rich are concerned about the potential for extra security checks during the competition.

In short - Meghan and Harry already had their baby, so it's time to move on to the next story that will make everyone breathless with anticipation.
