I don't think the LDP was on the brink of the abyss after being in power for 60 years. Too bad she doesn't have any real solutions for the country, just like any neocon around the world.
In the 2024 Japanese general election, LDP had to form a coalition with Komeito, and it still lost their parliamentary majority in the lower house for the first time in 15 years, with the LDP suffering its second-worst result in its history, securing only 191 seats.
Less than a year and a half later, LDP went from a minority coalition party, dropped Komieto, and won an outright two-thirds supermajority and regaining its majority status in the chamber. The LDP's total of at least 316 seats is the most ever won by a party in Japanese electoral history.
I do NOT like Takaichi. But she undeniably turned LDP around in a historic way. LDP was majorly suffering in 2024, and nobody could’ve foreseen this much of a comeback.
