FDR Never Praised Hirohitos Physique in 1943
“fdr stated that hirohito had a great ass at the summer of 1943”
Summary
There is no record of Franklin D. Roosevelt ever making a comment about Emperor Hirohito’s physical appearance, let alone describing him as having “a great ass” in the summer of 1943. The available transcripts and archives of Roosevelt’s speeches contain no such statement, and the claim appears to be a fabricated or misattributed quote.
