He hasn't circled back to Kim Jong Un yet. Maybe Pyongyang will be his second foreign trip?
He still wants a piece of beautiful Gaza beachfront property for another Middle East hotel, so I suspect he'll circle back to Netenyahu next.
 
Interesting that trump stopped the asylum program for everyone other than white south Africans. He has also resended protective status for Afganies who actually helped the US. All while being the most inept president in terms of laws passes in his first 100 days.

The Saudis are funding all this.

The size of its staff, which can be as many as several hundred, has changed under different presidents.

When Trump took office the NSC had 300 staffers, which was cut in half in January to about 150. The expected cuts could whittle the staff down to 50-60, but a final decision has not been made, said three of the people with direct knowledge of plans. Rubio does not plan to fire any staff but is expected to reassign them to other agencies, a senior administration official with direct knowledge of Rubio’s decision making said. …”
