President Trump joked with photographers at the Singapore summit on Tuesday, telling them to take pictures that made him and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un look “handsome and thin.”
According to pool reports, Trump made the comments to photographers and cameramen from the Singaporean government’s television channel, ”Host TV.”
“Getting a good picture everybody? So we look nice and handsome and thin? Perfect,” he said.
{mosads}Trump and Kim were marking a historic moment as the first time a sitting U.S. president has met with a North Korean leader.
The two met one-on-one for just under 40 minutes before moving to an expanded meeting with other officials and a three-course working lunch.
Trump took a jab at the press earlier in the day, telling Kim, ”The press, they never stop,” as the two sat down ahead of their meeting.
“I’ll tell you when they’re out,” Trump said, referring to press in the room.
