All going according to plan as the LDP increases their poll numbers going into the fall election. Interesting that this article highlights that the majority of the respondents in a poll wanted a change from the Abe, Suga policies. These numbers conflict with the new administration's high numbers, usually because people will say, "let's give it a chance," or some other worn out fool hardy phrase. People would do well by reading more before the election because if they did, they'd know that AA (Abe/Aso) are still pulling the strings. Suga was a puppet so that Abe could get out of the hot kitchen running away with his mask and tanking numbers. And now Kishida is the same to get the numbers out of the gutter caused by Suga's administration so that the LDP can win the fall election. It's so obvious and so aggravating...

I hope the Japanese people are aware enough to realize that Kishida is the extension of Abe and Suga. Political Musical Chairs are not going to change that. If the people of this nation are truly fed up with the state of affairs they need to put another group in power and let them govern- if for no other reason than to let the LDP know that there are consequences for their brazen contempt for the masses
IF they don't and vote the LDP back in, they deserve everything that happens to them

After 1 day an approval rating of 55 percent? How is this possible? Can't they at least wait a week?

Nobody voted Kishida, or Suga, anyways.
In a true democracy people choose their representatives.

Yes, but most countries have not a true but a parliamentary democracy. In that sense, he has of course been elected before, in his election district where he was candidate, then won there and gained a parliament seat and all parliamentarians have now in majority decided and elected him as new Prime minister, and this choice has then been formally ok’ed by the head of state, the Emperor. Other countries have slightly different but similar procedures of also choosing their heads only indirectly, not by direct people’s vote.

I'm surprised it's that high.

That 40/40 split on his “new capitalism” nonsense doesn’t bode well.

And he hasn't even done anything, except spout empty rhetoric. This will be his high water mark.
