As part of his visit to Japan, the President recently kicked around the soccer ball with Honda’s Asimo robot at a science museum in Tokyo. Let me tell you, there are few things stranger than seeing a very athletic Commander in Chief being subjected to the superior ball-handling skills of a humanoid machine. Yeah, the robot looks like an adorable, pint-sized astronaut with the voice of a well-mannered youth, and claims to have good intentions like helping the disabled, but don’t let that fool you. This is all part of a plan where they pretend to be nice and get in good with the world’s leaders by playing pick-up games of b-ball and cricket on the front lawn in order to enslave the human race.

Check out the footage below.
