Uh-oh! What have the young women of Kamen Joshi gotten themselves into?
On Sunday the idol group, whose name in English means Masked Girls and which is made up of 18 members in three separate teams, released a video titled "Kamen Joshi: Idol Magic for Trump M-A-G-A!" in which seven of the members sang and danced in an effort to "M-A-G-A," or "make America great again."
The title is in reference to one of U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign slogans, though a Japanese statement included in the video's description says the video is for "entertainment purposes only" and "in no way reflects the political views or beliefs of the group members or their management."
