President Donald Trump said Tuesday he was pleased with ongoing discussions with North Korea, adding he would like a future summit with the country's leader Kim Jong Un at his Mar-a-Lago estate or on North Korean territory.
Trump's comments come after Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met with Kim in Pyongyang to further denuclearization efforts on the Korean Peninsula. Following the meeting, Kim agreed to allow outside nuclear inspectors into the Punggye-ri nuclear testing site to prove that it had been irrevocably dismantled, but the North Korean leader did not make any promises to fully denuclearize the country without significant concessions from the U.S.
Still, Trump said he was happy with the progress being made with North Korea, adding that his administration has made unprecedented progress since his historic summit in Singapore with Kim back in May.
"I think the speed is amazing," Trump told reporters Tuesday at the White House. "You have no nuclear tests, no rockets. And we have a very good relationship with Chairman Kim. I like him, he likes me."
Briefly speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Pompeo said he was happy with his most recent discussions with Kim and was grateful for Kim's cooperation toward denuclearization.
"There is still a long way to go, and much work to do," Pompeo said. "We can now see a path to where we'll achieve the ultimate goal, which is the verified denuclearization of North Korea."
Trump added that discussions are underway for a second summit and that both he and Kim would enjoy having one on his Mar-a-Lago property in Florida, where he has previously hosted Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Trump answered questions on the U.S.' ongoing discussions with the reclusive communist country during a briefing to announce the resignation of Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley.
When he sees it, he may want to defect.
That would be an amazing place. Show the commie what Capitalism can deliver. Kim might not to leave!
North Korea has a nice ocean-side border.
Maybe Trump is showing him a “vision”.
Bring the commies here to see what capitalism delivers. Send our commies to Venezuela, Zimbabwe, North Korea, Cuba to show what Socialism delivers.
Mister President....be careful I wouldn’t want the noodle twister anywhere near my home or family...while you’re with him,ask him where he got the American haircut?..
..my guess Tractor Supply
More likely, when he sees it, he’ll want one for himself and order his military and their slaves to make a replica down to the last detail on pain of death.
home field advantage
Does the little potato actually play golf? Or is it just the DPRK “media” that claims he does?
And Mar-a-Logo is a great (Huuge!) choice. Can you image the media having to choke on "The Mar-a-Logo accords" for establishing peace and ending the Korean War?
Take him on a tour, show him what beachfront property AND capitalism can get you.
He’ll be rich beyond his wildest dreams AND his people will be happy, well fed, and not prisoners!
Hosting a summit at Mar-a-Lago will renuclearize so many liberal heads, the entire eastern seaboard will look like a mushroom farm.
Good point. But I recall a set of pics of his Father's 'palace'. Looked like the 50's
Lol! Surf’s up!
Whatever. Security and all.
But I think it would help to bring dignitaries to “real” America. Let them see the people who support Trump.
LOL!
Rarely plays golf but EVERY time he does he get a hole-in-one.
:-)

Give him some golf lessons, and have him caddied by a couple of starlets.
