I think he’s afraid of President Trump.
I believe he is scared to death of being photo’d next to Melania. Once the citizens of NK see that, his days are numbered.
Not so much, I think he truly is in jeopardy of being ousted while he’s gone. Whoever he leaves in charge whether one person or a 5 man tribunal type might not want him to lead anymore.
What if this is all a ruse and he gets lured out of country and then arrested for murder of his brother and others killed outside of North Korea?
