“They’re incredible people and it’s a real honor,” Trump said Tuesday following a discussion with the king. The conversation — the contents of which are meant to remain private under royal convention — lasted under an hour and followed a speech by Trump at the White House where he hailed the “cherished” bond between two nations.
