Trump Caught on Hot Mic Discussing Potential Summit with China’s President Xi Jinping

President Donald Trump is preparing for a pivotal meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday, and he inadvertently shared on a hot mic how long the session is expected to last.

During a diplomatic dinner hosted by South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, Trump, who is 79, was overheard saying that his Thursday meeting with Xi could extend for “three to four hours.” This estimate surpasses the official schedule released by the White House, which allocates just under two hours for their discussions.

Addressing the leaders at the dinner, Trump remarked, “We’re going to have something that’s going to be very, very satisfactory to China and to us. I think it’s going to be a very good meeting. I look forward to it tomorrow morning when we meet.”

“I got along great with Kim Jong Un,” he said at the time. “I liked him, he liked me.”

Trump, who made history in 2019 as the first US president to step on North Korean soil, has not scheduled any reunion this trip.
