I can imagine Xi walks in and Trump says "Ok, I'll have the wonton soup, chicken chow mein, and a side of egg rolls. Separate checks, please"

Yeah, this is a very important meeting. I hope they get along well and become friends. That would be a good thing for all of us I think.

I like to go for occasional walks along the sidewalk on the west side of the intracoastal waterway around dusk when it gets cooler out. When I'm around the north side of Southern and Flagler Blvd, Maralago is just across the water about a 1/4 mile away.
When President Trump is in town there are usually two gun boats idleing around in the water out there. One closer to the east side of the waterway and the other in the middle or closer to the west side of the waterway.
Looks like a big 50 caliber machine gun mounted on the front of the boats.

Last time I went for a walk while that was going on one of the gun boats moved a little closer to the west side and pointed right at me for a little while. Made me feel a little uncomfortable but I'm just some guy going for a walk in shorts and a t-shirt. They're doing their job and I'm sure they're very good at it.

I've met Donald Trump a couple times over the years because I'm a photographer and he's always been very nice to me.
