Kim in the USA

As the plans for the meeting between the North Korean President and Trump move forward the place for the meeting is being discussed. It would be great if they could meet somewhere in the USA. Recall in 1959 when Khrushchev came to the US. He was shown around the country and was visually impressed the the farm equipment in Iowa. He was a farmer so this perked his interest. At that time some pictures of Moscow stores showed the empty shelves as compared to the super markets in the US. He had to have noticed that and it may well have influenced his feelings about capitalism. Perhaps giving Kim a tour would open his eyes to the miracle of the free market. Don't forget that within a few months of the collapse of the Soviet Union Khrushchev's son moved his family to the USA where he lives today as an American citizen. Perhaps Kim would enjoy a round of golf at Mar a lago.
