* He and his host, Japanese Prime Mininster Shinzo Abe, began by delicately spooning out food into the pond
* Abe tossed the contents of his box down to the fish, at Tokyo's Akasaka Palace, before Trump followed suit
* Twitter users later attacked 71-year-old Trump, pointing out that it was a mistake to overfeed koi carp
* A spokesman for a Democratic congressman said 'Trump can't even feed fish right' while a Twitter user claimed Trump 'would f**k up p***ing in the ocean'
President Donald Trump sparked a feeding frenzy on social media Monday when he was photographed dumping an entire box of fish food into a pond of koi carp during his trip to Japan.
The U.S. president and his Japanese host Shinzo Abe began by delicately spooning out food to the waiting koi at Akasaka Palace; the fish had been rounded up by a clapping Japanese aide.
But after comparing what they had left in their boxes, Abe chuckled and tossed the contents of his into the air, sending it down to the fish.
Trump followed suit, dumping his upside down and drawing a hearty laugh from Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.
Despite having copied his host's actions, Twitter users later attacked 71-year-old Trump, pointing out that it was a mistake to overfeed koi carp.

WNU Editor: Good grief!!!! I have seen how big Koi carp can get .... some of them are big enough to eat the box let alone the food.

Everybody say it with me. This is not news.
I disagree. This is essential news.
It's important to know how a president conducts himself while feeding fish. Especially foreign fish.
We get an insight how he is likely to treat other foreign dignitaries. Judging by this video, it seems he will chuck food at them.
LOL
Thanks D. Plowman. I needed the laugh.
I have seen Coi eat whole live baby ducks in the pool in Contitution Gardens, National Mall, Washington, DC.
I would have been more impressed if he had tossed a 6 pack ring in the water...I guess I'll just have to settle for the box dump.
"We get an insight how he is likely to treat other foreign dignitaries. Judging by this video, it seems he will chuck food at them."
Wonderful! What did it mean when George HW Bush puked on the then-Japanese prime minister?
Wonder what he will do with Putin's cabbage?
Anon,
Does Trump drink beer and buy it buy the 6 pack?
Or our you referring to people who may have voted for him.
Gee, if anyone followed Americana instead of have a 40 or 50 year old play book, they might know that micro breweries are big. Those are hardly 6 pack.
The problem with Trump is that he grew up in New York and worked, when he was young.
There was no country drives and feeding the ducks by hand.
If there had been, he would have thrown some out by hand and then dumped the rest.
