The claim

山本太郎氏がつばさの党を応援し、「相手の選挙区に乗り込め」とアドバイスした

Original review summary

The review says the viral post combined and altered parts of a source article. Yamamoto’s advice about entering an opponent’s district concerned Tsubasa no To representative Atsuhiko Kurokawa’s 2017 campaign, before the party existed; in the 2024 by-election, Yamamoto supported independent candidate Genki Sudo, not Tsubasa no To.[S1]

Additional context

The review explains that “politician disqualified” was the article writer’s characterization, not Yamamoto’s words. [S1]
