Trump to Meet with Chinese President.
BOLDUAN: Keeping an eye on the White House right now. In just a few moments, President Trump and the first lady will be heading to Florida where they will be hosting the Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife at the Mar-a-Lago resort. It will be President Trump's first meeting with the Chinese leader, though then-Candidate Trump had plenty to say about China throughout the election, basically none of which was complimentary. CNN senior White House correspondent, Jim Acosta, is live in West Palm Beach, Florida. A lot riding on this meeting. A lot of high expectations of this meeting. What are you hearing, Jim?</s>JIM ACOSTA, CNN SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: Well, what you're hearing is you're hearing senior administration officials trying to tamp down expectations for this high-stakes meeting between President Trump and President Xi down here in Mar-a-Lago. It's going to start later this evening when the two sit down for dinner. But you're absolutely right, Kate, because of that tough talk that you heard from the president as a candidate during the campaign, there are all of these expectations that President Trump is going to come in and sort of throw down the gauntlet and engage in some very tough negotiations with the Chinese president. But what we're hearing from senior administration official officials is that you may not see a whole lot of that. The president was asked about this on another network this morning, and here's what he had to say.</s>TRUMP: It's going to be interesting. Nobody really knows. We have not been treated fairly on trade for many, many years. No president has taken care of that the way they should. And we have a big problem with North Korea. We're going to see what happens.</s>UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: The hope to get them to bring leverage on the issue in North Korea?</s>TRUMP: Well, we'll see what happens, Pete. But I'll tell you, we'll be in there pitching and I think we'll do very well.</s>ACOSTA: You're seen the White House sort of back away from the president's promise to label China currency manipulator on day one of his administration. They're now just reviewing all trade relationships across the world, including that one with China. And on top of that, Kate, in terms of other big issues here, you have the North Korea issue. You saw the president make those comments over the weekend, well, if China won't help us with North Korea, we will do that on our own. But I heard from an official yesterday, who was saying, listen, that missile test you saw from North Korea the other day was that not that menacing after all. It splashed into the ocean some 55 seconds after takeoff. So this is going to be a delicate discussion. But at this point, it's really just setting the framework for future discussions and this may not bog down into some nasty rhetoric from both sides, not at this point yet. There's too much at stake to get to that point this early on in the relationship -- Kate?</s>BOLDUAN: We shall see. Jim, great to see you. Thanks so much. Keeping an eye there. We're also getting live pictures from the Senate floor, keeping on there, where they're going through procedural moves right now, changing the rules is where this is headed to push through the president's Supreme Court nominee, Neil Gorsuch, to get him confirmed to the court. This is history in the making. We're following that right after the break.
