Live on Bloomberg TV

00:00IN WITH OUR CHIEF WASHINGTON'S, KEVIN CIRILLI. THEY WILL -- THEY WILL NOT START OFF IN WASHINGTON THEN MAKE THEIR WAY TO FLORIDA. SHOULD WE READ INTO THIS IN ANY WAY? KEVIN: YES. HERE'S WHY. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS A TOUGH CALLS, NOTABLY ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL BUT ALSO IN RECENT DAYS AGAINST CHINESE AND THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT, IN PARTICULAR OVER THE WEEKEND. IN AN INTERVIEW WITH THE FINANCIAL TRUMP -- TIMES, TRUMP SAYING HE WOULD TAKE ON CHINA WITH HOW THEY ARE HANDLING NORTH AND SOUTH KOREA'S RELATIONSHIPS, SAYING PERHAPS THE U.S. WILL HAVE TO DO IT THEMSELVES. WHEN YOU THINK BACK TO THE TRANSITION TRAILS, IT WAS PRESIDENT TRUMP ALSO HAVING TOUGH TALKS ON HOW THEY ARE DEALING WITH TAIWAN. THIS COULD BE A PARTICULARLY TENSE MEETING TO SAY THE LEAST. PERHAPS THAT IS LIGHT SOURCES I'M SPEAKING WITH INSIDE A PRESIDENT TRUMP'S POLITICAL ORBIT SO MIDAIR SPECULATING THAT THAT IS WHY THEY ARE OPTING TO GO TO MAR-A-LAGO INSTEAD OF THE WHITE HOUSE. SCARLET: CAN WE TAKE ANY LESSONS FROM THE WORLD LEADER MEETINGS WE HAVE SEEN WITH TRUMP THUS FAR , COMPARING HIS PRE-MEETING RHETORIC WITH THEM HOW THE MEETINGS WENT? KEVIN: SO FAR THERE HAS BEEN NO WORD AS TO WHETHER THERE WILL BE AN ACTUAL PRESS CONFERENCE FOR THE ABILITY FOR JOURNALISTS TO ASK QUESTIONS. THE OPTICS OF THIS WILL BE QUITE DIFFERENT, IN THE SENSE THERE WILL NOT BE AN OFFICIAL STATE VISIT, ANY RULING OUT OF THE GUARDS ON PEBBLE BEACH OF THE WHITE HOUSE. NO WELCOMING RECEPTION. THAT SAID, I AM CERTAIN THAT THERE WILL BE A FENCE DOWN AT MAR-A-LAGO FOR THESE TWO WORLD LEADERS WHO HAVE HAD A TENSE RELATIONSHIP AND TALKS TO SAY THE LEAST. THIS WILL ALL COME DOWN TO TRADE . PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID AS MUCH FOR THAT INTERVIEW OVER THE WEEKEND. DONALD TRUMP DESPITE HIS TWEETS AND INTERVIEWS HAS PUSHED BACK
