You're protecting Japan so they don't try to do war again ... Japan's really scary when it does war.

Did you think you'd ever see the day when a GOP candidate made Ronald Reagan look like a smart, erudite, savvy follow?

Japan's paying an awful lot for all some of this protecting also too. Those weapons systems of ours on their ships aren't handed out in Christmas stockings.

I don't even understand what he's trying to say. Didn't get to the making sense part.

He's not a liar, actually, because to tell a lie you have to know what the actual fact is that you're lying about. He is some combination of criminally uninformed, wilfully misinformed and balls out making shit up.

Why do I feel like a Trump sponsored Turkey/Kurdish Separatist meeting ends with everyone in the room having their throats slit when talks stall...

I take some comfort in the fact that he won't actually be doing anything as President other than tweeting threats and calling in to talk shows. I lose that comfort, however, when I imagine that his kids will be telling Vice-President Pence what to do.

Trump is an intuitive, that personality type especially lionized by the right for their decisiveness. He can see the problems, but his solutions are really just guess-work. Of course, he can get the best people, but the real solutions are likely to be far too complex and counter-intuitive for him to even consider. So the 'best people' are going to be the ones who think most like him, which means more guess-workers.
