As preparations are underway for a US-North Korea summit, US officials are trying to solve the logistical issue of who will pay for North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's housing, according to a new report.
A week after abruptly scrapping the summit with Kim, President Donald Trump announced Friday that the historic talks were back on for June 12 in Singapore.
With its economy weakened from tough sanctions, Pyongyang is requiring that another country pay for Kim and his delegation's hotel bill, The Washington Post reported Friday.
According to the Post, Kim is demanding to stay at the luxury, five-star Fullerton hotel, where a presidential suite costs more than $6,000 a night....

Pay for the room....but it’s cash only at the bar and restaurant.
Make Mexico pay.
Wasn’t that what Munich was all about?
This is propaganda from the Left Media. Obvious hit job attempting to sabotage the upcoming US NK summit.
NK will ignore this fake story. Who cares who pays for the hotel? No one cares.
Desperate leftist WP with their hail Mary attempt to sabotage the US NK summit falls flat.
If he wants free housing, he should agree to meet at a Trump hotel.
Where’s that “Made in Canada” motorhome that Obama bought? Lil Kim can spend the night there in a pull-thru site with water and electric. If he wants sewer, he has to give up his nukes.
If it was good enough for our Communist, it should be good enough for him.
Does Kim need a GoFundMe page?
Send the bill to Mueller’s team since they seem to have an unlimited budget.
He carries his own toilet with him wherever he goes to keep someone from getting his DNA.
At least that's what was reported a week or so ago
I read the other day that they still make Airstreams. I always thought they were cool.
This is a transparent gambit. Kim wants to see if he can demand something for nothing, and get it. Let him ask China for an advance on his allowance.
[Offer the very best accommodations available on one of our flat-tops. Fly him back and forth on an Osprey with a fighter escort. Fly over a few missile boats along the way. Give Fat Boy an idea of what is waiting if he gets out of line.]
Absolutely fabulous idea.
How about setting up a Go Fund Me?
In all seriousness this is being poorly played, especially by the media. This is a serious situation and even if we have to quietly pay his travel expenses it is better than having him cancel because of some need to save face and then spend his time with the sole goal of launching a nuc on us. Besides, it will be far less cost than the almost weekly vacations the Obama Royal Family took at our expense.
Don’t forget the in-room massages with the “happy ending”. Also make sure he does not forget to swipe the towels and little shampoo bottles on the way out. Also tell the front desk to ignore they outrageously high “Adult Video” charges and to transfer them over to the NY Times and WaPo Reporters bills.

Mexico is going to pay
only a small fraction of what Mueller is spending every day!
WhatsApp matter, you story docked little peon? You don’t have enough cash to pay for the hotel room? Perhaps you needed to spend less on rocket fuel and more on diplomacy.
North Koren Limp-dictator Kim Jong Un-glued.
Pay for the room. Then have some fun playing mission impossible.
Send Stormy Daniels in.
Leak to CNN that there is a coup in NK in his absence.
Fake telephone conversations with his military.
Get the press to surround him asking about the coup.
Find someone to do an angry Xi impression and make a personal visit.

First, we must find some agreement on the shape of the negotiating table . . . (Paris peace talks, 1968)
The US government spends $6k every day on toilet paper, so I don’t see the big deal. Just pull out the big credit card and charge it.
Now, what no one is thinking about....he’s going to have a 40-person entourage of security folks and support personnel....who will pay for their stay?
Trump doesn’t travel alone, and I would speculate that there’s 500 personnel in the background....you can figure that they each get a private room. Just on hotel, meals, and rental cars....there’s probably $2 million a day spent.
And the news crowd are the same way....probably well over 3,000 accredited journalists to be on this junket.
